EUS can detect lesions as small as 2-3 mm in size and is the best method for determining the 5 echogenic layers of the stomach. The 5 layers are histologically correlated with the mucosa (layer 1 ...

High nitrate intake caused nitrite to accumulate in loosely adherent rat gastric mucus; if this layer was removed, mucosal blood flow decreased. The authors suggest that this previously unknown ...

My current research project uses stem cell organogenesis to examine H. pylori infection in the human stomach and determine whether infection upregulates epithelial ST6Gal-I expression, a ...

Over the next 10 years, it will be important to shift the focus of mucosal immunology research to make further advances. Examination of the mucosal immune system as a global organ, rather than as ...

Usually, stomach cancer sets off from the inner lining of the stomach (mucosa of stomach) and slowly invades it. The cancerous tissue can also spread to the esophagus or towards the small intestine.

Table III. Pharmacokinetic parameters for rebamipide following oral administration of granules or a tablet at a dose of 100mg in 27 healthy adult male volunteers [mean (SD)] ...

The adaptation of immune cells to their local microenvironments in our body is central to tissue homeostasis and linked to ...

The next layer is the mantle. Many people think of this as lava, but it's actually rock. The rock is so hot, however, that it flows under pressure, like road tar. This creates very slow-moving ...

While camo patterns and high-performance outerwear tend to get all the glory, the base layer is the real hero of hunting apparel. Whether sitting still for hours in a deer stand or hiking miles ...

The most common abstraction layer is the programming interface (API) between an application and the operating system. High-level calls are made to the operating system, which executes the ...
