Sonic Hedgehog (Shh), secreted from gastric parietal cells, contributes to the regeneration of epithelium. The recruitment macrophages plays a central role in regenerative process. mechanism that regulates macrophage response injury is largely unknown. Here we tested hypothesis Shh stimulates chemotaxis injured epithelium and regeneration. A mouse model expressing myeloid cell-specific deletion Smoothened (LysMcre/+;Smof/f) was generated using transgenic mice bearing loxP sites flanking Smo...

Background/Hypothesis Prevalence of gastric ulcers increase in the elderly, yet cause age‐associated escalation is unknown. Once Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) enters stomach lumen, bacterial urease not only converts water & urea to ammonia bicarbonate neutralize acidic environment stomach, but also breaks down protective mucous barrier by breaking mucin. Subsequently, chronic inflammation induced H. infection results epithelial cell death and damage lining, known as a ulcer. We tested...

Background Increased incidence of gastric ulcer disease is often related to frequent nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug (NSAID) use and Helicobacter pylori ( H. ) infection. Studies have shown adheres the epithelium through binding bacterial Sialic Acid‐binding Adhesin (SAbA) glycosylated epithelial mucin receptor sialyl‐Lewis X (S‐Lew ). Our group has reported that CD44v9 emerges during repair after injury where it co‐expressed with markers Spasmolytic Polypeptide/TFF2‐Expressing...
