These results, combined with the recent findings that acid can increase eotaxin-3 release (Blanchard et al J Immunol; 2010;184:4033-41.), highlight the contribution of acid (reflux-associated acid or physiological acid) to EE. Based on this, the need to continue acid suppressive therapy in EE patients (regardless of GERD) should be considered.
