Vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor expression in esophageal adenocarcinoma and Barrett esophagus
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to investigate the role of the angiogenic factors vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor in the development and progression of Barrett esophagus and adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction.
METHODS: Vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor messenger RNA expression levels, relative to the control gene encoding beta-actin, were measured by using a quantitative reverse ...

Cytokeratin and DAS-1 immunostaining reveal similarities among cardiac mucosa, CIM, and Barrett's esophagus
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: The normal histology at the gastroesophageal junction, and in particular the nature of cardiac mucosa, remains in dispute. Likewise, the relationship of intestinal metaplasia at the gastroesophageal junction (CIM) to Barrett's and intestinal metaplasia of the stomach (GIM) is unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the immunostaining characteristics of cardiac mucosa and CIM and compare their staining pattern with that of other foregut mucosal types. We hypothesized that ...
| Known for Cardiac Mucosa | Cim Barrett | Gastroesophageal Junction | Humans Metaplasia | Staining Pattern |
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine whether antireflux surgery is more effective in producing loss of intestinal metaplasia located only at the gastroesophageal junction than it has been in patients with intestinal metaplasia extending up into the distal esophagus.
SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Biopsies of a normal appearing gastroesophageal junction will demonstrate cardiac mucosa containing goblet cells--the hallmark of intestinal metaplasia--in 10% to 15% of patients who are ...
| Known for Intestinal Metaplasia | Patients Cim | Esophagus Cardia | Antireflux Procedure | Columnar Epithelium |
Adenocarcinoma of the distal esophagus and gastroesophageal junction are believed to arise in Barrett's esophagus with intestinal metaplasia. Whether adenocarcinoma can arise in columnar lined esophagus without intestinal metaplasia is in doubt. Whether adenocarcinoma of the gastric cardia arises in intestinal metaplasia of the gastric cardia is also in doubt. We aim to evaluate the relationship of size and stage of adenocarcinoma of the distal esophagus, gastroesophageal junction and ...

The Prevalence of Lymph Node Metastases in Patients With T1 Esophageal Adenocarcinoma
[ PUBLICATION ]
Knowledge of the risk of lymph node metastases is critical to planning therapy for T1 esophageal adenocarcinoma. This study retrospectively reviews 75 T1a and 51 T1b tumors and correlates lymph node metastases with depth of tumor invasion, tumor size, presence of lymphovascular invasion, and tumor grade.
OBJECTIVES: Increasingly, patients with superficial esophageal adenocarcinoma are being treated endoscopically or with limited surgical resection techniques. Since no lymph nodes are ...

Telomerase reverse transcriptase expression is increased early in the Barrett's metaplasia, dysplasia, adenocarcinoma sequence
[ PUBLICATION ]
Barrett's esophagus is a multistage polyclonal disease that is associated with the development of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and esophagogastric junction. Telomerase activation is associated with cellular immortality and carcinogenesis, and increased expression of the telomerase reverse transcriptase catalytic subunit (hTERT) has been used for the early detection of malignant diseases. To identify biomarkers associated with each stage of the Barrett's process, relative mRNA ...

Inflammation and Specialized Intestinal Metaplasia of Cardiac Mucosa Is a Manifestation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that cardiac mucosa, carditis, and specialized intestinal metaplasia at an endoscopically normal-appearing cardia are manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: In the absence of esophageal mucosal injury, the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease currently rests on 24-hour pH monitoring. Histologic examination of the esophagus is not useful. The recent identification of specialized ...
| Known for Reflux Disease | Cardiac Mucosa | Intestinal Metaplasia | Patients Carditis | Gastroesophageal Junction |
OBJECTIVE: The Siewert classification system differentiates between adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction and that of the distal esophagus. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether there were differences in the location and prevalence of lymph node metastases, type of recurrence, and survival with these tumors that warrant distinguishing between them in clinical practice.
METHODS: Records of all patients who underwent resection for adenocarcinoma of the distal ...
| Known for Gastroesophageal Junction | Distal Esophagus | Patients Adenocarcinoma | Survival Esophagectomy | Lymph Node Metastases |
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of Barrett's esophagus in patients with adenocarcinomas located at the gastroesophageal junction.
DESIGN: A case series of patients who underwent esophagogastrectomy for adenocarcinoma was retrospectively reviewed. Tumors were grouped by location as esophageal, cardiac, and subcardiac, and the prevalence of specialized intestinal metaplasia in the histological specimens was determined.
SETTING: A university department of surgery that specializes ...
| Known for Cardiac Adenocarcinomas | Patients Adenocarcinoma | Barretts Metaplasia | Barrett Esophagus | Cardia Prevalence |
OBJECTIVE: To assess the long-term outcome of antireflux surgery in patients with Barrett's esophagus.
SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The prevalence of Barrett's esophagus is increasing, and its treatment is problematic. Antireflux surgery has the potential to stop reflux and induce a quiescent mucosa. Its long-term outcome, however, has recently been challenged with reports of poor control of reflux and the inability to prevent progression to cancer.
METHODS: The outcome of antireflux surgery ...

Short-segment Barrett's Esophagus: a prevalent complication of gastroesophageal reflux disease with malignant potential
[ PUBLICATION ]
The significance of finding specialized intestinal epithelium localized to the region of the gastroesophageal junction is unclear. We tested the hypothesis that short segments of specialized intestinal epithelium are a consequence of gastroesophageal reflux disease and are premalignant. Two hundred forty-one patients with reflux symptoms underwent gastroscopy with rigorous biopsy. Barrett's esophagus was diagnosed when specialized intestinal epithelium was present on biopsy. Patients ...

Increased CDX2 and decreased PITX1 homeobox gene expression in Barrett's esophagus and Barrett's-associated adenocarcinoma
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: The CDX2 (caudal-related homeobox gene 2) and PITX1 (pituitary homeobox 1) genes have essential roles in human development. Forced expression of Cdx2 alone in the murine stomach results in gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM). This study was undertaken to investigate the expression pattern of these critical morphogenesis genes in the Barrett's multistage carcinogenesis model.
METHODS: CDX2 and PITX1 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels, relative to the control gene ...
| Known for Gene Expression | Barretts Esophagus | Pitx1 Homeobox | Esophageal Neoplasms | Cdx2 Mrna |
OBJECTIVE: To compare the frequency and spectrum of p53 gene mutations in adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and cardia and to compare clinical and pathologic features in patients with p53 mutant and nonmutant cancers.
SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The p53 gene is commonly mutated in human cancers, and a p53 mutation is reported to be present in more than 50% of esophageal adenocarcinomas. Although many studies have investigated the frequency of p53 protein overexpression in adenocarcinomas of ...

Background and AimsGastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a spectrum of disease that includes nonerosive reflux disease (NERD), erosive reflux disease (ERD), and Barrett’s esophagus (BE). Treatment outcomes for patients with different stages have differed in many studies. In particular, acid suppressant medication therapy is reported to be less effective for treating patients with NERD and Barrett’s esophagus. The aims of this study were to investigate (1) the role of mechanical ...
