A process of exocytosis in which soluble proteins and other substances are initially stored in secretory vesicles for later release. It is found mainly in cells that are specialized for secreting products such as hormones, neurotransmitters, or digestive enzymes rapidly on demand. Any process of the immune system that occurs as part of an immune response. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the rate of eosinophil degranulation. Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by an eosinophil. Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a myeloid leukocyte. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of eosinophil degranulation. A change in the morphology or behavior of a myeloid cell resulting from exposure to an activating factor such as a cellular or soluble ligand, leading to the initiation or perpetuation of an immune response. The change in morphology and behavior of a eosinophil resulting from exposure to a cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or soluble factor, leading to the initiation or perpetuation of an immune response. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of eosinophil degranulation. The regulated exocytosis of secretory granules by a leukocyte. The regulated exocytosis of secretory granules containing preformed mediators such as major basic protein, eosinophil peroxidase, and eosinophil cationic protein by an eosinophil. The change in morphology and behavior of a eosinophil resulting from exposure to a cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or soluble factor.
