Eosinophils are involved in host protection against multicellular organisms. However, their recruitment to the mesenteric lymph node (mLN) during type 2 immunity is understudied. Our results demonstrate that eosinophil association with lymphoid stromal niches constructed by fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs) and lymphatic endothelial cells is diminished in mice selectively lacking interleukin (IL)-4Rα or lymphotoxin-β (LTβ) expression on B cells. Furthermore, eosinophil survival, activation, and enhanced Il1rl1 receptor expression are driven by stromal cell and B cell dialogue. The ligation of lymphotoxin-β receptor (LTβR) on FRCs improves eosinophil survival and significantly augments IL-33 expression and eosinophil homing to the mLN, thus confirming the significance of lymphotoxin signaling for granulocyte recruitment. Eosinophil-deficient ΔdblGATA-1 mice show diminished mLN expansion, reduced interfollicular region (IFR) alarmin expression, and delayed helminth clearance, elucidating their importance in type 2 immunity. These findings provide insight into dialogue between stromal cells and B cells, which govern mLN eosinophilia, and the relevance of these mechanisms during type 2 immunity.
