The purpose of this study is to determine the association between acid reflux and cell changes in Barrett's esophagus.
Specific aim 1: To test the hypothesis that controlled acid reflux is associated with lesser degree of stromal activation.
Specific aim 2: To test the hypothesis that stromal fibroblast derived growth factors drive BE epithelial proliferation.

| activated myofibroblasts | The primary end point for the study will be the proportion of patients with activated myofibroblasts (defined as positive staining for SMA and vimentin with negative staining for Desmin, in > 50% of subepithelial myofibroblasts). This primary end point will be compared between the group with controlled acid reflux and the group without acid reflux. | 6 months |
