Characterizing the inflammatory response in esophageal mucosal biopsies in children with eosinophilic esophagitis

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an emerging allergic, IgE- and non-IgE (Th2 cell)-mediated disease. There are major gaps in the understanding of the basic mechanisms that drive the persistence of EoE.
