Whole genome methylation analysis of non-dysplastic Barretts oesophagus that progresses to invasive cancer
Objective: To investigate differences in methylation between patients with nondysplastic Barretts’ oesophagus who progress to invasive adenocarcinoma and those that do not. Design: A whole genome methylation interrogation using the Illumina HumanMethylation 450 array of patients with non-dysplastic Barrett’s Oesophagus who either develop adenocarcinoma or remain static, with validation of findi...
متن کاملManagement of Barrett's oesophagus
Barrett's oesophagus, which is thought to be a consequence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), is a well-recognized precursor of oesophageal adenocarcinoma. Medical therapies and anti-reflux surgeries for GORD have shown conflicting results regarding the progression of Barrett's metaplasia to neoplasia. After high-grade dysplasia or intramucosal cancer is identified, it has been standa...

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and its sequela, Barrett's oesophagus, are the major recognized risk factors for oesophageal adenocarcinoma, a tumour whose frequency has increased dramatically in Western countries over the past few decades. Barrett's oesophagus develops through the process of metaplasia in which one adult cell type replaces another. The metaplastic, intestinal-type cells of B...

متن کاملBarrett's oesophagus: epidemiology, diagnosis and clinical management.
Barrett's oesophagus is a condition characterised by partial replacement of the normal squamous epithelium of the lower oesophagus by a metaplastic columnar epithelium containing goblet cells (intestinal metaplasia). Barrett's oesophagus is important clinically because those afflicted are predisposed to oesophageal adenocarcinoma. Prevalence surveys suggest that up to 2% of the population may b...
