Fig 1 Identification of esophageal ILC2s. Single-cell suspensions from esophageal biopsies from a patient with active EoE (top) and a non-EoE control individual (bottom) were stained for CD45, lineage (CD3, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD20, CD56, TCRγδ, CD4, CD11b, CD235a, and FCeRI), and CRTH2 or isotype. ILC2s are identified as CD45+ low FSC lymphocytes that are lineage-negative and express CRTH2. FSC, Forward scatter; SSC, side scatter.

Fig 2 Increased ILC2s correlate with active EoE and tissue eosinophilia. A, ILC2s were quantified (% of live cells) in control non-EoE biopsy tissue as well as in patients with active EoE, inactive EoE, and PPI-REE (P = .005, 1-way ANOVA). B, %ILC2s of live cells correlated with mean (bottom, Pearson r = 0.7, P < .0001, 95% CI, ) eosinophils.

Fig E1 Collection of donor esophageal lymphoid aggregates. Lymphoid aggregates were identified as pale yellow discs (∼1 × 0.8 × 0.4 mm, white arrow) on the submucosal surface (left) after removal of Meissner's plexus and collected by sharp dissection (right).

Fig E2 Human esophageal ILC2s expand in response to IL-33 and TSLP. Lymphoid aggregates from donor esophagus were processed into single-cell suspensions and cultured with IL-2 with or without IL-33 and TSLP for 1 week. A, Gating strategy for identification of ILC2s postculture. CD45+ cells were identified followed by gating of lymphocytes, lineage-negative, and CRTH2+ cells. B, Total number of ILC2s per well after culture. Results shown are 1 of 3 independent experiments. Mean ± SEM, t test. FSC, Forward scatter; SSC, side scatter.
