[Electron microscopic observations of Campylobacter pyloridis in chronic gastritis]. 1989

T H Zhang

Gastric biopsies from 150 cases of chronic gastritis were studied by electron microscopy. The infection rates of Campylobacter pyloridis (CP) were 95.3% (85 cases) and 69.2% (65 cases) in superficial gastritis and atrophic gastritis respectively. A close relationship was seen between quantity of the bacteria and activity of the disease. Electron microscopy showed that CP usually damaged the columnar and pit cells of the stomach, resulting in necrosis and active inflammation of the mucosa, and infection of CP might act as a very important pathogenic factor of chronic 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.
