Figure 4

Ex vivo expression of CD4+CD154+ T cells in patients undergoing esophagogastroduodenoscopy during active EoE eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE-A) and inactive EOE (EoE-I). Expression is shown as percentage of positive cells (see eFigures for gating). A, Patients with milk-induced EoE-A have increased levels CD154+ cells compared with patients with EoE-I or controls. In addition, patients with EoE-A have an increased TH2 cytokine expression (interleukin [IL] 4) (B), IL-5 (C), and IL-13 (D) in CD4+CD154+ T cells compared with controls or patients with EoE-I. P < .05 is considered to be statistically significant (Mann-Whitney U test).
