Human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells ameliorate atrophic gastritis in aging mice by participating in mitochondrial autophagy through Ndufs8 signaling.

Background: Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a chronic disease of the gastric mucosa characterized by a reduction or an absolute disappearance of the original gastric glands, possibly replaced by pseudopyloric fibrosis, intestinal metaplasia, or fibrosis. CAG develops progressively into intestinal epithelial metaplasia, dysplasia, and ultimately, gastric cancer. Epidemiological statistics have revealed a positive correlation between the incidence of CAG and age.

The Aging Stomach: Clinical Implications of Infection in Older Adults-Challenges and Strategies for Improved Management.

Aging is a multifactorial biological process characterized by a decline in physiological function and increasing susceptibility to various diseases, including malignancies and gastrointestinal disorders. Helicobacter pylori () infection is highly prevalent among older adults, particularly those in institutionalized settings, contributing to conditions such as atrophic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric carcinoma. This review examines the intricate interplay between aging, gastrointestinal changes, and pathogenesis.

Gastric Neuroendocrine Tumors and Pernicious Anemia: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (GI-NETs) are rare neoplasms, with the gastric (stomach) subtype (G-NETs) representing a significant clinical focus. Type 1 G-NETs are particularly noteworthy due to their relationship with autoimmune atrophic gastritis (AAG) and pernicious anemia (PA), conditions that impact vitamin B12 absorption. This report presents the case of a patient with a type 1 G-NET identified at the initial diagnosis of PA, demonstrating the connection between these conditions.

The paradox of : how does infection protect against esophageal cancer?

is a microaerophilic gram-negative bacterium infecting around half of the world's population. Despite its well-known role in gastric malignancies, its impact on esophageal cancer comes with a complex paradox. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain its observed lack of carcinogenic activity in the esophagus, including the trigger of anti-inflammatory pathways, promoting atrophic gastritis, and esophageal microbiome modulation.

Epiberberine ameliorates MNNG-induced chronic atrophic gastritis by acting on the EGFR-IL33 axis.

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a prevalent form of chronic gastritis that presents with chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa, localised gastric mucosal glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia. Despite the existence of diagnostic criteria, effective therapeutic strategies for this condition remain to be developed. The objective of this study was to examine the potential therapeutic benefits of epiberberine in mitigating MNNG-induced CAG and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

The association between oral microbiome and gastric precancerous lesions.

Gastric precancerous lesions are thought to be precursors in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer through Correa's cascade. Recent studies have investigated the association between the oral microbiome and gastric precancerous lesions. However, there has yet to be a comprehensive synthesis review of the existing literature on the relationship between oral microbiome and gastric precancerous lesions.

Postprandial gastrin-17 level is a useful dynamic marker for atrophic gastritis.

Atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia may progress to gastric malignancy. Non-invasive serum biomarkers have been extensively studied and proven to be useful as a screening tool to stratify risk and identify patients for endoscopy to detect early gastric cancer. These non-invasive biomarkers have been endorsed and recommended by many international consensus guidelines.

The C/C Genotype of rs1231760 in Is a Risk Factor for the Progression of -Positive Atrophic Gastritis by Increasing Expression.

Background: Chronic gastritis caused by () infection can progress to gastric cancer through atrophic gastritis (AG). The risk of gastric cancer increases with the progression of AG. Therefore, investigating the risk factors for the progression of AG is important.

Serum Gastrin Levels Are Associated With Prevalent Neuroendocrine Tumors in Autoimmune Metaplastic Atrophic Gastritis.

Introduction: Autoimmune metaplastic atrophic gastritis (AMAG) is a precancerous condition that predisposes to gastric neuroendocrine tumors (gNETs). There exist no methods to stratify patients with AMAG for gNET risk.

Methods: We identified a cohort of patients with AMAG within a university health system using histopathologic and serologic criteria.
