An Antibody Precipitating Urease and Its Possible Relation to Gastric Ulcer.
نویسنده
چکیده
An antibody precipitating urease was found in 171 out of 180 human sera. Data obtained on limited material (50 cases) suggest that the anti-urease titre is appreciably higher in the serum of patients suffering from gastric ulcer. This is a pointer towards a possible antigen-antibody mechanism in the genesis of chronic gastric ulceration.

Analysis of immunoglobulin A antibodies to Helicobacter pylori in serum and gastric juice in relation to mucosal inflammation.
Helicobacter pylori is a major etiologic agent in gastroduodenal disorders. In this study, immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies to H. pylori antigens were evaluated in serum and gastric juice specimens obtained from patients with gastritis or peptic ulcers by utilizing antibody capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ACELISAs). Urease alpha subunit (UA), urease beta subunit (UB), the 66-kDa he...
متن کاملCompression of Histopathology, Culture and Rapid Urease Test in Diagnosis of Helicobacter Pylori in Gastric Biopsy Specimens
Abstract Background and Objective: Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) infection is related to chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. Thus, identification and treatment of the infection have a considerable importance. The aim of this study was to compare three methods of Histopathology, Culture and Rapid Urease test (RUT) in identification of H. Pylori in gastric bio...
متن کاملSerum Leptin Level in Patients with Duodenal Ulcer
Background: Leptin and its receptors have been found in the human gastric mucosa. Its secretion by gastric mucosa has generated interest in its probable role in the gastrointestinal tract and pathophysiology of diseases. Objective: To determine any possible correlation between serum leptin level and pathological findings in patients with duodenal ulcer (DU). Methods: In a cross-sectional study...
متن کاملCharacterization of the arginine decarboxylase gene (ORF HP0422, speA) involved in acid tolerance in Helicobacter pylori.
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori is a motile microaerophilic bacterium that colonizes the human stomach. H. pylori infection triggers gastric diseases, such as gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. Stomach represents a barrier for microorganism colonization, particularly because of its high hydrochloric acid concentration. The main mechanism developed by H. pylori to maintain intracellular ...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori-induced apoptosis in pathogenesis of gastric carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Despite a possible role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric carcinoma (GC), its pathogenesis is not clear. There is scanty data on apoptosis in GC in relation to H. pylori and CagA antibody. Therefore, we studied gastric epithelial apoptosis in GC and non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD) with or without H. pylori infection, and the degree of apoptosis in relation to CagA antibody status. METHOD...
