Abstract:
Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM), a precancerous gastric lesion, represents a critical transitional stage in the Correa cascade that progresses from chronic inflammation to gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC). Emerging evidence implicates neutrophils as key orchestrators of GIM pathogenesis through multifaceted interactions within the tumor microenvironment. Therapeutic strategies targeting neutrophil activation, migration, and effector functions, including autophagy modulation and phenotypic reprogramming to an anti-inflammatory N2 state, hold promise in reversing GIM progression. This review synthesizes the current knowledge on neutrophil-mediated mechanisms and explores clinically actionable pathways for GIM reversibility.

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...
Gastritis-I: Introduction and Types
Acute gastritis presents as a sudden inflammation triggered by various stressors to the stomach lining, such as exposure to corrosive agents, local irritants like aspirin and other NSAIDs, alcohol consumption, radiation therapy, physical trauma, severe burns, sepsis,...

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...
