Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Basophils’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Eosinophils play roles within various diseases via the release of inflammatory mediators into tissue sites such as specific granule proteins, cysteinyl leukotrienes, radical oxygen species, and a variety of cytokines or chemokines [4, 5].
Detailed explanation-3: -Neutrophils are key mediators of the inflammatory response, and program antigen presenting cells to activate T cells and release localized factors to attract monocytes and dendritic cells [7].
Detailed explanation-4: -Basophils play crucial roles in both IgE-dependent and-independent allergic inflammation, through their migration to the site of inflammation and secretion of various mediators, including cytokines, chemokines, and proteases.
Detailed explanation-5: -Eosinophils make up about 1 to 4% of the leukocytes on average. They are involved in chronic inflammation, allergic reactions, and host deference against parasitic infections.
