Exocrine and Endocrine Epithelial Changes in Types A and B Chronic Gastritis

  • Conference paper
Helicobacter pylori, Gastritis and Peptic Ulcer

Abstract

Gastritis-associated epithelial changes are known to have a major role in the pathogenesis of gastric diseases such as peptic ulcer and exocrine or endocrine cell neoplasia [1, 26, 27, 31, 33]. Thus, a careful cytologic characterization of these epithelial changes at the light and electron microscopy level should prove helpful in understanding the cause and evolution of such diseases.

This work was supported in part by grants from the Italian National Research Council (Special Projects on Oncology and Biomedical Technologies; Gastroenterology Group) and the Health and Education Ministry.
