Q

Pathogenesis: features of H.pylori chronic gastritis?

4

A
  • Flagella: motility

Q

Pathogenesis of autoimmune chronic gastriris?

A
  1. Antibodies attack parietal cells > loss of H+/K+ ATPase
  2. no ATPase > achlorhydria > hypergastrinemia to produce more acid by G cell
  3. Lack IF, thus absorption of vitamin B12 reduced in ileum

> > Megaloblastic anemia (pernicious anemia)
