Assessing Early Life Factors for Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Lessons From Other Allergic Diseases

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology
Elizabeth T Jensen, Randi J Bertelsen

Abstract

Few studies have been conducted to investigate possible early life determinants for eosinophilic esophagitis. An improved understanding of the etiologic factors implicated in disease development would further elucidate possible disease pathogenesis, inform therapeutic targets for disease treatment, and identify possible modifiable factors for disease prevention in genetically susceptible individuals. Although eosinophilic esophagitis is increasing in incidence and prevalence, the disease remains relatively rare, posing challenges for studying etiologic factors in disease development. Eosinophilic esophagitis is believed to be antigen-mediated, and most patients with EoE have concomitant atopic disease. In recent years, the evolution of our understanding of possible etiologic mechanisms in allergic disease has been informed by our understanding of how early life perturbations can lead to dysbiosis in the colonization of the microflora in the gastrointestinal tract and subsequent dysregulated immune development. Perturbations include factors such as antibiotic use, including prenatal, intra-antepartum, and infancy use of antibiotics, Cesarean delivery, preterm delivery, and neonatal intensive care admission.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
