Ménétrier's Disease. Serial morphological, secretory, and serological observations
Gastroenterology
|February 1, 1976
Abstract:
Serial morphological, secretory, and serological observations of a patient with Ménétrier's disease disclosed hypergastrinemia, antibodies to parietal cells and dietary substances, and an acute reduction of gastrointestinal protein loss after atropine administration. Transformation of the gastric mucosa from hypertrophy to atrophic gastritis was associated with disappearance of the protein-losing gastroenteropathy and serum antibodies and reduction of the serum gastrin concentration.

Trichomonas vaginalis is a flagellated protozoan parasite and the causative agent of trichomoniasis, one of the most prevalent non-viral sexually transmitted infections in the United States. This extracellular parasite primarily colonizes the lower genitourinary tract in women—particularly the vagina—and in men, the urethra and prostate. Its structural and functional adaptations enable its survival, motility, and pathogenicity within the host environment.Structural Features and Host EntryT.
