まとめ
逆流中の胆酸は腸内微生物群を変化させ,遺伝子発現に影響を与え,食道腺がん (EAC) の発症を誘発する可能性がある. この研究は,バレット食道 (Barrett's esophagus,BE) の特定の微生物のシフトと分子変化を関連付けています.
科学分野:
- 胃腸内科
- 微生物学
- 腫瘍学
背景:
- 胃食道逆流中の胆酸は,バレット食道 (BE) と食道腺がん (EAC) の発症に関与しています.
- EACの進行で微生物群の変化が観察され,胆酸は細菌の組成に影響します.
研究 の 目的:
- 胆汁酸,微生物群,そしてBEとEACの遺伝子発現の相互作用を調査する.
- マルチセンターの横断的な研究でこれらのつながりを分析する.
主な方法:
- LC-MSは胃アスピラートにおける胆酸の定量化です.
- 組織微生物群のプロファイリングのための16S rRNAシーケンシング.
- 153人の患者 (52人の対照群,101人のBEスペクトル) のBEまたは心臓組織のRNAシーケンシング.
主要な成果:
- 乳球菌が多く,アクティノミクスが少なくなった.
- 二次性胆酸濃度が上昇し,リフルクサート胆酸は主に結合していた.
- *IL6*, *FGF2*, *HGF*のアップレギュレーションと相関する *ストレプトコッカス*;酸化リン酸化経路に関連した *アクティノミケス*の減少.
- ヒストロジー,胆酸,または微生物群の組成から独立して2つの異なるBE遺伝子発現クラスタが特定されました.
結論:
- 胆汁酸は,BEの微生物の組成を形作っているようです.
- 微生物群と胆酸のプロファイルは,EACの発達に関連する特定の遺伝子発現変化と関連しています.
- 発見は,リフルス,微生物群,食道がん発生を結びつける可能性のあるメカニズムを強調しています.

Barrett Esophagus-I: Introduction
201
Barrett's esophagus is a medical condition where the esophageal mucosa is significantly damaged by stomach acid or other digestive fluids, often due to long-term exposure associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In GERD, a weakened or abnormally relaxed lower esophageal sphincter allows stomach acid to flow persistently into the esophagus.
This constant acid exposure transforms the esophagus's pink mucosal lining (stratified squamous epithelium) into a type of lining more...

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management
293
Individuals with Barrett's esophagus are often asymptomatic, but they may experience symptoms commonly associated with GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Additional symptoms can include difficulty swallowing, chest pain, unintentional weight loss, blood in the stool (which may appear black, tarry, or bloody), and episodes of vomiting.
To diagnose Barrett's esophagus, healthcare providers often recommend an endoscopy for those showing symptoms of acid reflux. The procedure...

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease I: Meaning and Pathophysiology
493
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) involves the recurrent backflow of the stomach or duodenal contents into the esophagus, leading to troublesome symptoms and potential esophageal mucosal damage. Although GERD is often referred to as a disease, it is more accurately described as a syndrome, as it encompasses a range of symptoms and complications rather than a singular pathological entity, impacting a large number of individuals as the most prevalent upper gastrointestinal problem. Roughly...

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
543
Gastritis is marked by disruption of the mucosal barrier that usually protects the stomach tissue from digestive juices and manifests in acute and chronic forms.
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...

What is Monogastric Digestion?
72.5K
The human body contains a monogastric digestive system. In a monogastric digestive system, the stomach only contains one chamber in which it digests food. Several other animal species also have monogastric digestive systems, including pigs, horses, dogs, and birds. This chapter, however, focuses on the human digestive system.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome I: Introduction
375
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is characterized by functional disturbances in the gastrointestinal system, presenting a cluster of symptoms without evident structural or biochemical abnormalities. It primarily affects the large intestine and may cause abdominal pain, bloating, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or both.
IBS is a chronic condition that can persist over a long period or recur frequently.
The pathogenesis of IBS involves a complex interplay of the following factors:
