Study Summary

The overall objective of this preclinical study is to further the investigators mechanistic understanding of the role that the α4β7 and mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule (MAdCAM-1) pathway plays in mediating eosinophil recruitment in EoE. To accomplish this, the investigators aim to (1) determine the baseline and dynamic patterns of α4β7 integrin expression on circulating and tissue eosinophils in EoE and in the setting of non-EoE esophageal eosinophilia (e.g., reflux esophagitis) and (2) determine the complete profile of eosinophil integrin molecules that may play a role in active EoE.

Primary Outcome

Eosinophil expression levels of a4b7 integrin will be assessed on peripheral and esophageal eosinophils during active EoE and after treatment-induced remission.
