EoE Learning Hub

EoE is a chronic, progressive type 2 inflammatory disease marked by esophageal inflammation, remodeling, fibrosis, dysfunction, and food impaction. In adults, it presents as dysphagia, food impaction, and chest pain, while in children, it may show as nonspecific symptoms like abdominal pain, vomiting, food refusal, and failure to thrive.

Access the resources below to gain better understanding on a variety of topics related to EoE.

What Went Wrong? How Dysregulated Type 2 Immunity Contributes to AD, PN, CSU, and BP

The March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida brought together 4 dermatology experts to explore the evolving science of type 2 inflammation. Type 2 inflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of multiple dermatological diseases, driving chronic immune dysregulation that affects patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) prurigo nodularis (PN), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and bullous pemphigoid (BP). Understanding the mechanisms behind type 2 inflammation is key to advancing care and improving patient quality of life.
