Esophageal biopsies of patients with EoE (n = 20), GERD (n = 20), and healthy volunteers (HVs) (n = 15) were exposed to antibodies against inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), nitrotyrosine, eosinophilic peroxidase, eotaxin-3, and galectin-3. This evidence concerns the gene EPX and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
