BackgroundGastroenteric tract requires robust tolerogenic mechanisms to tolerize foreign antigens like foods and microbiota. This is critical to establish the immune homeostasis, which upon disruption, might contribute to a plethora of atopic disorders, including food allergy and eosinophilic esophagitis (EOE).
