  • Title: [Campylobacter pylori and the reparative processes in peptic ulcer].
    Author: Miagkova LP, Sklianskaia OA, Lapina TL, Ufimtseva AG, Sekamova SM.
    Journal: Arkh Patol; 1990; 52(10):12-6. PubMed ID: 2281967.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with reparative potential of gastric and duodenal mucosa in ulcer in connection with the presence and quantity of Campylobacter pylori (CP) which is found practically in all patients not only with duodenal localization of ulcer but with mediogastric and pyloroantral localization as well. No correlation between the CP presence and CP mucosa colonization on the one hand and the type of reparative processes in the mucosa is found. The presence or the absence of CP as well as the degree of CP mucosal dissemination have no influence on the clinical course of the ulcer. Antiulcer treatment aiming at aggression factors (histamine H2-receptors blockers) and protective factors (enprostil) and lacking antibacterial activity improves the reparative processes but does not influence CP. Thus, CP is not etiological and probably is not a main pathogenetic factor in ulcer development. Its participation in the genesis of ulcer is possibly brought about under conditions of suppression of local protective mechanisms.
