Eosinophilic esophagitis is rapidly increasing in incidence. It is associated
with food antigen-triggered, eosinophil-predominant inflammation, and the
pathogenic mechanisms have many similarities to other chronic atopic diseases.
Studies in animal models and from patients have suggested that allergic
sensitization leads to food-specific IgE and T-helper lymphocyte type 2 cells,
both of which seem to contribute to the pathogenesis along with basophils, mast
cells, and antigen-presenting cells. In this review our current understandings of
the allergic mechanisms that drive eosinophilic esophagitis are outlined, drawing
from clinical and translational studies in humans as well as experimental animal
models.
