30、r is consider to be the key procedure resulting in acid back diffusion and mucosal injury caused by gastric mucosal ischemia . • NSAIDs and ethanol can inhibit cyclooxyenase (COX) and reduce endogenous prostaglandins (PGs) in gastric mucosa . PGs: increase gastric mucosal blood flow; enhance the
31、renewal of gastric mucosa ; increase the secretion of gastric mucus. • Since endogenous PGs play an important role in the maintenance of the mucosal integrity, decrease of endogenous PGs can cause mucosal damage. • Stress may cause reduction of mucosal blood supply or damage of other defensive m
32、echanisms. Some stress factors may also cause gastric acid oversecretion. • Bile salts and pancreatic enzymes decompose mucus and break biological membrane. These mechanism can all result in mucosal injury and erosion. Pathology ⒈diseased region:gastric antrum、gastric body or to fill with who

44、ecial gastritis etiology and mechanism w H.pylori infection • A gram-negative bacterium • a quite strong infective ability • incidence is very high. • It is estimated that 50% of the population over the age of 50 years are infected with H.pylori in developed countries. • The H.pylori infe
45、ctive rate is 80%-95% in the chronic gastritis H. pylori • Stay in gastric antrum, lives in the gastric crypts, gastric metaplasia (duodenal bulb) w Mechanism • H. pylori have the ability to produce a wide variety of virulence factors. • Most H.pylori associated gastritis dose not develop to
46、erosions,but the inflammation can progress to depth of the mucosa and lead to atrophy. w Autoimmunity and heredity • autoantibody in the blood : parietal cell antibody, PCA; intrinsic factor antibody, IFA • autoimmune disease: accompaniment Hashimoto t
