Enrichment analyses of the 73 exclusive DAPs in EoE, which, to the best of our knowledge, have not been reported as EoE-specific protein markers before (with the exception of POSTN, SOX2, KRT5, and CLDN1 (Clevenger et al, 2023; Politi et al, 2017; Rochman et al, 2017; Wu et al, 2018)) revealed a network of mitoribosomal proteins (Fig. 2E). This evidence concerns the gene CLDN1 and eosinophilic esophagitis.
