Our aims were to determine the prevalence and effect of the T-251A functional polymorphism of IL-8 and the G-308A polymorphism of TNF-alpha in histological and macroscopic gastric diseases related to Helicobacter pylori infection.
Elucidation of the mechanism of gastrin modulation by HB-EGF-mediated EGF receptor transactivation should facilitate the development of therapeutic strategies against <i>H. pylori</i>-related hypergastrinemia and consequently gastric disease development, including gastric cancers.
Our results provided insight on the protein interaction networks and signaling pathways that may contribute to PPIase-FKBP-associated gastric diseases and may lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms indicating the oncogenic effects of H. pylori PPIase-FKBP.
Helicobacter pylori isolated from a patient with Ménétrier's disease increases hepatocyte growth factor mRNA expression in gastric fibroblasts: comparison with Helicobacter pylori isolated from other gastric diseases.
Moreover, investigations in H. pylori-infected patients about polymorphisms of the genes encoding CXCL8 and inducible NO synthase, and epigenetic control of the ROS-producing enzyme spermine oxidase, have further proven that overproduction of these molecules impacts the severity of gastric diseases.

CEA, CA19-9, C72-4 and CA50 concentrations were determined by ABBOTT ARCHITECT I2000 SR. We found the CFD concentrations have significant differences between GC patients, benign gastric disease (BGD) patients and healthy controls (<i>P</i> < 0.05).
More importantly, HST-1 down-regulated TNF-α and the TNF-α-mediated activation of NF-κB and JNK/MAPK pathways that are the key determinants in the IND-gastropathy.
In conclusion, our results suggest that the nonfunctional TLR1 602S/S genotype is associated with a reduced risk of H. pylori-induced gastric diseases, probably via diminished Th1 responses.

In view of the involvement of the IL-6 law and the presence of H. pylori in the development of gastric diseases, the present study aimed to characterize the promoter-region polymorphism -597 (G/A) (rs1800797), -572 (C/G) (rs1800796), and -174 (G/C) (rs1800795) by PCR-RFLP in 375 gastric biopsy specimens from patients with peptic symptoms.
Besides, protein level analysis were performed to compare ERCC6 and ERCC8 expression in different stages of gastric diseases, and to correlate SNPs jointly with gene expression.
Our results provided insight on the protein interaction networks and signaling pathways that may contribute to PPIase-FKBP-associated gastric diseases and may lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms indicating the oncogenic effects of H. pylori PPIase-FKBP.
We analyzed the expression of 17HSD type 1 and 2 enzymes which catalyze opposite reactions of estrogen metabolism, in normal gastric mucosa and various gastric diseases of 81 tissue specimens.
We describe a unique, 4-generation pedigree with autosomal dominant gastropathy exhibiting the typical clinical, endoscopic, and pathological findings of Ménétrier-like disease, though in the absence of protein loss and with no increase in the levels of gastric TGF-α.
Moreover, marked an increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreases in glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT) levels along with enhanced activated caspase-3 expression in the gastric, hepatic, and renal tissues following Px-insult suggested a possible involvement of lipid peroxidation in Px-induced gastropathy and hepatorenal toxicity.
