Event & Seminar(Japanease Web Site) Pick up Subject! Research on the Pathophysiology of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) Nahoko NAGANO EoE is a disease that causes symptoms like chest tightness due to allergic reactions, and has been increased in recent years. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are used as the first-line treatment, but about 30% of patients do not respond to PPIs, and the pathogenesis of this disease remains unclear. It is important to initiate appropriate treatment before esophageal fibrosis occurs, even in patients who do not respond to PPI, and clarification of the etiology of EoE and the mechanism of PPI responsiveness is strongly required. Therefore, we are working to elucidate the pathogenesis of EoE from histopathological analysis and molecular biological approaches.
