Fibrostenotic eosinophilic esophagitis may reflect epithelial lysyl oxidase induction by fibroblasts-derived tumor necrosis factor-α

Esophageal fibrosis is a long-term consequence of remodeling in eosinophilic esophagitis, but little is known about the pathophysiology of fibrosis. We now demonstrate that TNFα mediated lysyl oxidase production may be driving fibrostenotic phenotype.
