[Immunomorphologic study of various endocrine cells in chronic gastritis and in intestinal metaplasia of the stomach]. 1989

Kh Ganem, and M Zlateva, and A Popov

The amount of some endocrine cells in various forms of chronic gastritis with and without the presence of intestinal metaplasia of the stomach mucosa was studied immunohistochemically (PAP-reaction). The study was carried out on 18 samples of biopsied material for D-cells and on 31--for G cells. It was established that the amount of these cells as well as their ratio was changed in accordance with the form of chronic gastritis. Thus, for example++ , the number of D-cells was increased in mild forms of gastritis, but they were reduced in its grave form, while the number of G-cells gradually diminished from mild to grave forms. These changes give foundation to assume that hr hormonal disturbance of the stomach mucosa plays important role in pathogenesis of this disease. This suggestion is supported by the observed in dynamics quantitative changes of these cells, beginning even at the initial stages of this disease.

D008679	Metaplasia	A condition in which there is a change of one adult cell type to another similar adult cell type.
D002908	Chronic Disease	Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).

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.

D001078	APUD Cells	Cells with the capacity to take up and decarboxylate the amine precursors DIHYDROXYPHENYLALANINE or 5-HYDROXYTRYPTOPHAN. This is a property of endocrine cells of neural and non-neural origin. APUDOMA is a general term collectively applied to tumors associated with APUD cells.
