Abstract

Introduction. There is a debate about the significance of intestinal metaplasia (IM) subtypes for the development of gastric cancer. Therefore, determining the indicators of cellular renewal in individuals with complete and incomplete IM is certainly a topical issue.Aim. To study the proliferative activity of epithelial cells of the gastric antrum in patients with Helicobacter pylori-positive antral atrophic gastritis depending on the subtype of IM.Materials and methods. The study included 20 people with chronic antral non-atrophic gastritis (CNG; group A), 20 patients with chronic antral atrophic gastritis (CAG) without IM (group B), 20 patients with CAG with complete IM (group C) and 20 people with CAG with incomplete IM (group D). The stage of chronic gastritis was assessed by the morphological method in accordance with the modified Sydney classification. Typing of IM foci in the gastric mucosa was performed using the PAS reaction. Proliferation activity was studied by the expression of nuclear protein Ki67 using immunohistochemistry.Results. The proliferation index in the foci of complete BM in group C was 5%, and in group D in the foci of incomplete BM the Ki67 expression index was significantly higher and was 39% (p < 0.001). Outside the foci of metaplasia, the proliferation index was 23.5% in group C and 19% in group D (p = 0.06).Conclusion. We have registered significantly higher proliferation indicators of gastric epithelial cells in foci with incomplete IM compared to foci with complete IM. Determination of proliferation indicators in foci of incomplete intestinal metaplasia may be a marker of an increased risk of developing gastric cancer.
