Co-culture of GR-MF with non-adherent hematopoietc bone marrow cells obtained from mice infected with S. mansoni in the chronic phase a Clusters of eosinophils observed in monalayer co-culture, after 7 days, stained with May-Grünwald/Giemsa, Hematoxylin/Eosin and Chromotrope 2R. b Eosinophils (arrows) observed in spheroids co-culture, after 4 days, stained with Hematoxilin/Eosin. c Measurement of EPO levels in co-culture treated with neutralizing antibodies for IL-5 and eotaxin. This graph is representative from three experiments. *P ≤ 0.05 compared with non-treated cells
