PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of epinastine on eosinophil chemotaxis and changes in eosinophil adhesion molecules induced by epinastine and three other antiallergic agents, using eosinophils of atopic dermatitis (AD) patients. RESULTS: Epinastine reduced eosinophil chemotaxis toward eotaxin when the eosinophils had been prestimulated with interleukin (IL)-5, but given alone it did not alter eosinophil chemotaxis toward IL-5. CD11b expression was inhibited when peripheral blood was prestimulated with IL-5, but eosinophil adhesion molecule expression was not altered. CONCLUSIONS: Epinastine suppresses allergic inflammation not only through its strong antihistamine and antimediator effects, but also by inhibiting eosinophilic chemotaxis and the expression of adhesion molecules involved in chemotaxis, especially CD11b.
