iollo markers that associate with Eosinophils
Arachidonic acid
Arachidonic acid is converted to inflammatory leukotrienes that activate and attract eosinophils. Elevated arachidonic acid may indicate increased eosinophil-mediated inflammation.References

Histamine
Histamine released by mast cells and basophils can activate eosinophils and increase their levels. Elevated histamine may suggest an allergic response involving eosinophils.References
