Comparison of gene expression profiles in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) between Japan and Western countries

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence rate of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) between Japan and Western countries is quite different. Although multiple factors, including the genetic background, lifestyle and dietary habits, may account for the difference, the pathogenic mechanism of EoE has not been fully clarified in Japanese. To elucidate whether EoE's pathogenic mechanisms differ between those populations, we performed...
