This session will feature speakers who will examine the mechanisms of inflammation and epithelial tissue remodeling during eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Epithelial cell and immune cell biology will be discussed…
Background: Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is one of the most predominant causes of chronic esophageal symptoms in children. Pathological changes of the esophageal epithelium in EoE are characterized by basal cell hyperplasia (BCH), infiltration of eosinophils and elevated levels of cytokines (e.g…

INTRODUCTION: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an inflammatory disorder characterized by esophageal eosinophilia, basal cell hyperplasia (BCH), and epithelial barrier dysfunction promoted by inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-13…
