[Association of cytokine gene polymorphisms in peptic ulcer development in the Bashkortostan Republic]
Abstract:
Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a chronic disease based on recurrent gastric or duodenal ulcers. Association analysis of common polymorphisms of the cytokines genes IL1B (rs1143634), IL1RN (rs71941886), IL8 (rs4073), IL10 (rs1800872), and TNFA (rs1800629) was conducted in 254 patients with gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer and in 277 unrelated healthy individuals from the Bashkortostan Republic. Associations of the rs1143634C allele and the C/C genotype of the IL1B gene with PUD in ethnic Bashkirs have been revealed. The frequency of the rs4073A/A genotype of the IL8 gene was significantly higher in the control group as compared to patients infected with H. pylori. Our results confirm the significant role of rs1143634 of the IL1B gene in PUD development.

Peptic Ulcer Disease I: Introduction
An acute ulcer, marked by superficial erosion and minimal inflammation, swiftly resolves upon identifying and addressing the underlying cause. In contrast, a chronic ulcer persists, potentially eroding through the muscular wall and forming fibrous tissue.

Peptic Ulcer Disease II: Pathophysiology
Damaging agents such as Helicobacter pylori, gastric acid, pepsin, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can weaken the mucosal defense, allowing hydrogen ions to infiltrate back and harm epithelial cells.
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...
Peptic Ulcer Disease III: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
