Autoimmunity and Gastric Cancer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Alterations in the immune response of patients with autoimmune diseases may predispose to malignancies, and a link between chronic autoimmune gastritis and gastric cancer has been reported in many studies. Intestinal metaplasia with dysplasia of the gastric corpus-fundus mucosa and hyperplasia of chromaffin cells, which are typical features of late-stage autoimmune gastritis, are considered precursor lesions. Autoimmune gastritis has been associated with the development of two types of gastric neoplasms: intestinal type and type I gastric carcinoid. Here, we review the association of autoimmune gastritis with gastric cancer and other autoimmune features present in gastric neoplasms.

CTLA4 Gene Variants in Autoimmunity and Cancer: a Comparative Review
Gene association studies are less appealing in cancer compared to autoimmune diseases. Complexity, heterogeneity, variation in histological types, age at onset, short survival, and acute versus chronic conditions are cancer related factors which are different from an organ specific autoimmune disease, such as Grave’s disease, on which a large body of multicentre data is accumulated. For years t...

متن کاملAssociation of rs9122 Polymorphism in the MCC Gene with Increasing the Risk of Gastric Cancer
Abstract Background and Aim: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. Genetic background is known to be one of the risk factors for gastric cancer. One of the genes that have been shown to be involved in various cancers, including gastric cancer, is the MCC gene. There are many SNPs in the MCC gene in the encoding and regulatory regions, one of which is rs9122, which ...
متن کاملCytotoxic T Cells in H. pylori-Related Gastric Autoimmunity and Gastric Lymphoma
Helicobacter pylori infection is the major cause of gastroduodenal pathologies, but only a minority of infected patients develop gastric B-cell lymphoma, gastric autoimmunity, or other life threatening diseases, as gastric cancer or peptic ulcer. The type of host immune response against H. pylori, particularly the cytolytic effector functions of T cells, is crucial for the outcome of the infect...
متن کاملMiR-493 suppresses the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells by targeting RhoC
Objective(s):MiRNAs have been proposed to be key regulators of tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis. However, their effect and prognostic value in gastric cancer is still poorly known. Materials and Methods: Gastric cancer cell lines were cultured. Tissue samples obtained from 36 gastric cancer patients were used for quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. The tissue microarrays (T...
