Gene Regulation and Targeted Therapy in Gastric Cancer Peritoneal Metastasis: Radiological Findings from Dual Energy CT and PET/CT
Published on: January 22, 2018
Abstract:
Intestinal metaplasia in the mucosa adjacent to a gastric carcinoma suggests that some carcinomas of the stomach might arise from metaplastic mucosa, as well as the existence of a gastric cancer with morphological features resembling intestinal mucosa. In this study, the extent of intestinal metaplasia of adjacent mucosa, the type of intestinal metaplasia (complete or incomplete), the degree of tumour differentiation, the type and quantity of mucins secreted by neoplastic cells and morphological features of the tumours were evaluated in 59 cases of gastric carcinoma. An analysis of the findings suggests that a carcinoma may arise in the stomach with features of association with incomplete metaplasia and histochemical and histological patterns which mimic carcinomas of the large intestine.

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 to M3...

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...
