Cell proliferation and atrophic gastritis in explanted canine gastric mucosa. 1975

P P Casteleyn, and G Willems

We produced experimental atrophic gastritis in 7 mongrel dogs by explanting a full-thickness wedge of vascularized mucosa from the gastric greater curvature onto the abdominal wall. Autoradiography of mucosal specimens was done after the iv injection of triated thymidine. The labeling index, S-phase duration, and cell cycle time were measured in normal and explanted fundic mucosa. The spatial distribution histograms of the labeled cells showed an enlarged are of proliferation. As in human atrophic gastritis, proliferation was shifted toward the mucosal surface. Significantly higher labeling indices were observed in the atrophic mucosa. Shortening of the S-phase duration and the cell cycle time was indicated by the curves of the labeled mitoses. Proliferative activity was significantly accelerated in this experimental model of atrophic gastritis.

D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.
