Serum Interleukin-17 Evaluation in Patients With Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease
Background: Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders or diseases (EGIDs) may result from an abnormal immune-mediated response to food antigens. Activated eosinophils release various mediators with inflammatory properties which may result in tissue and subsequently organ damage. The cytokine milieu of these patients has revealed increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, inc...
متن کاملEosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders
INTRODUCTION T he eosinophilic gastroenteropathies are an interesting, yet somewhat poorly defined set of disorders that by definition include the infiltration of at least one layer of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract with eosinophils. First reported over 50 years ago, the clinical spectrum of these disorders was defined solely by various case reports. As these reports became more frequent, vari...
متن کاملEosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders Pathology
Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGID) are characterized pathologically by excess eosinophils in mucosal biopsies of one or multiple sites in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, simultaneously or sequentially. Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is the best characterized EGID, and in most patients it is an abnormal immune-mediated response to food antigens. Current recommendations for diagnosis...
متن کامل[Eosinophilic infiltrates of the gastrointestinal tract].
There are two lesions which are often confused despite their quite distinct clinical and pathological differences: the inflammatory fibroid polyp and eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Other eosinophilic lesions likely to be encountered in the gut also pose problems of differential diagnosis.
متن کاملEosinophilic infiltrates of the gastrointestinal tract
Eosinophilic infiltration, localised or diffuse, of the gastrointestinal tract cannot be regarded as a definitive diagnosis; neither can a classification of disease, in which this is a feature, be founded on the degree or site of such infiltration. Eosinophilia is merely a manifestation of inflammation, often with an allergic basis, and accompanies a number of well defined clinicopathological c...
