Abstract

In corpus atrophic gastritis (CAG), hypochlorhydria makes plausible the overgrowth of intragastric bacteria, whose role in gastric carcinogenesis is under debate. To characterize the antrum/corpus composition of the gastric bacterial microbiota in CAG patients compared to controls without CAG. A cross-sectional monocentric study on consecutive patients with known histological diagnosis of CAG undergoing gastroscopy for gastric cancer surveillance and patients without CAG undergoing gastroscopy for dyspepsia or anemia (108 biopsies from 55 patients, median age 61.5). Genomic DNA from one antral and one corpus biopsy from each case (n = 23) and control (n = 32) was extracted. Gastric microbiota was assessed by sequencing hypervariable regions of the 16SrRNA gene. Bacterial abundance and diversity were significantly lower in CAG cases than in controls (p < 0.001). Firmicutes were more frequent in cases, Bacteroidetes and Fusobacteria in controls (p < 0.0001). Streptococcaceae were more abundant in cases (p < 0.0001), Prevotellaceae in controls (p < 0.0001). The genus Streptococcus was positively correlated with severe OLGA/OLGIM stages linked to a higher risk of gastric cancer. Gastric bacterial microbiota in CAG showed a reduced ...Continue Reading

Atrophic Gastritis

Atrophic Gastritis is a process where gastric glandular cells are lost and replaced with firbous tissues, as a result of chronic inflammation. Learn more about Atrophic Gastritis here.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.
