Tissue plasminogen activator in the pathogenesis of protein-losing gastroenteropathy
Abstract:
Tissue fibrinolytic activity, mainly due to activator of tissue plasminogen was increased in the biopsied gastric mucosa of patients with protein-losing gastropathy. Antiplasmin therapy with trans-AMCHA (trans-4-aminomethyl cyclohexane carboxylic acid) was dramatically effective, except in the case of a patient with intestinal lymphangiectasia. These findings suggest that increased fibrinolysis in the gastrointestinal mucosa may play an important role in enhancing mucosal permeability to plasma proteins.

Pathophysiology of Peptic Ulcer Disease: Injurious Factors
In the antrum region, G cells secrete the gastrin hormone that binds to gastrin-cholecystokinin-B (CCK2) receptors on parietal and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells in the fundic glands. Simultaneously, the vagus nerve releases acetylcholine, which binds...

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
