These cells produce a namesake peroxidase and major basic protein.
One protein produced by these cells can use nitrite to nitrate proteins at tyrosine residues. These cells produce a ribonuclease called their namesake "derived neurotoxin." Levels of these cells are elevated in a vasculitis known as Churg-Strauss syndrome. High levels of these cells are present in a form of drug hypersensitivity known as DRESS syndrome. White exudates and a series of Schatzki rings visible during endoscopy are characteristics of a disease in which these cells build up in the epithelium of the esophagus. Levels of these cells are considered elevated above 450 cells per microliter. These cells produce a namesake peroxidase and major basic protein. Like a rarer cell type, they possess a bilobed nucleus. Degranulation of these cells occurs in various anti-parasite and inflammatory responses. For 10 points, name these white blood cells which stain red in the presence of a certain acidic dye.
