Patients were endoscoped and gastric juice was aspirated. Patients with duodenal and gastric ulcer underwent a second endoscopy post-treatment. Biopsies were incubated in the absence/presence of endotoxins or gastric juice. Supernatants were collected and sTREM-2 and TNF~ were measured by enzyme immunoabsorbent assays. Scoring of gastritis was performed before and after treatment according to updated Sydney score.RESULTS: Patients with duodenal and gastric ulcer and those with chronic gastritis had similar scores of gastritis, sTREM-1 was higher in supernatants of tissue samples of H pylori-positive than of H pylori-negative patients with gastric ulcer. Median (± SE) sTREM-1 was found increased in supernatants of patients with gastric ulcer before treatment (203.21 ± 88.91 pg/1000 cells) compared to supernatants either from the same patients post-treatment (8.23 ± 5.79 pg/1000 cells) or from patients with chronic gastritis (6.21 ± 0.71 pg/1000 cells) (P 〈 0.001 and 〈 0.001, respectively). Similar differences for sTREM-1 were recorded among LPS-stimulated tissue samples of patients (P = 0.001). Similar differences were not found for TNFα. Positive correlations were found between sTREM-1 of supernatants from patients with both duodenal and gastric ulcer before treatment and the degree of infiltration of neutrophils and monocytes.CONCLUSION: sTREM-1 secreted by the gastric mucosa is an independent mechanism connected to the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer, sTREM-1 was released at the presence of H pylori from the inflamed gastric mucosa in the field of gastric ulcer.展开更多

METHODS: Specimens of gastric antrum mucosa from 83 children were retrospectively analyzed. Expressions of GAS and SS in gastric antrum tissues were assayed by the immunohistochemical Fn Vision method. RESULTS: The expressions of GAS in chronic gastritis Hp+ group (group A), chronic gastritis Hp-group (group B), the duodenal ulcer Hp+group (group C), duodenal ulcer Hp group (group D), and normal control group (group E) were 28.50+4.55, 19.60+2.49, 22.69+2.71, 25.33 + 4.76, and 18.80 + 2.36, respectively. The value in groups A-D was higher than that in group F. The difference was not statistically significant. The expressions of SS in groups A-E were 15.47+ 1.44, 17.29+ 2.04, 15.30+ 1.38, 13.11 +0.93 and 12.14+ 1.68, respectively. The value in groups A-D was higher than that in group F. The difference was also not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: The expressions of GAS and SS are increased in children with chronic gastritis and duodenal ulcer.展开更多
