Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between chronic atrophic antral gastritis and the decrease of somatostatin levels in blood and pyloric glands and adaptable protection ability of gastric mucosa.Methods Gastric mucosa biopsy specimen and blood samples were collected to determine the levels of somatostatin(SST)using radioimmunoassay.Histological changes between pre-and post-treatment were observed under light microscope as well as the changes of uhramicrostrucuture under transmission electron microscope.Distribution of SST in gastric mucosa was studied by immunohistochemical staining and then quantified.Results The quantities of gastric antral D cells of chronic atrophic antral gastritis decrease obviously.SST was mainly distributed in D cells of mucosa pyloric gland crypt.The nucleus of mucus epithelial cells in atrophic gastric antral crypt had SST negative staining.Mitochodria swellen,crista broken,rough endoplasmic reticulum distension,mucus secretory granules decreasing,the nuclear membranes disappearing as well as ehromatin integrating could have been seen in the intracytoplasm of mucus epitheliun cells of chronic atrophic gastric antral gastritis.The average level of SST in blood,epithelium and crypt were obviously reduced comparing to that of in the control group.By immunochemistry staining,the SST level in crypt of atrophic gastric antral gastritis Was significantly reduced comparing to that of in control group.With the level of SST in blood＜10 pg/100μl,the probability ratio of emerging atrophy Was 67.7%.Conclusions In case of no systemic inflammatory reaction state,the decreased ability of human pyloric gland D cell in producing SST not only rehtes obviously with human chronic atrophic antral gastritis but also with the weakened adaptable protection ability of gastric mucosa.
