Foci of intestinal metaplasia of gastric mucosa are known to be heterogeneous both morphologically and functionally, and several types of such metaplasia are now recognized. However, different authors use different criteria for their identification and, moreover, evaluate the signs of metaplasia in different ways. Also, the relationship of different types of intestinal metaplasia to one another and to dysplastic changes in the epithelium and to gastric cancer is a matter of controversy. Variants of intestinal metaplasia with sulfomucin secretion are considered as precancerous states that may give rise to gastric cancer of an intestinal type.

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.
