The influence of the different morphological changes on gastric mucosa on somatostatin cell number in antrum mucosa and serum somatostatin

The aim of our paper was to investigate the influence of the different morphological changes on gastric mucosa on somatostatin D-cell number in antral mucosa and serum Somatostatin. We analyzed according to Sydney classification to what extent the severity of gastritis affect the observed hormonal values. somatostatin D-cell number in antral mucosa and serum Somatostatin values were compared between three groups of patients ; mild, moderate and severe chronic gastritis. The average number of somatostatin cell in biopsy sample of antrum mucosa was 30.41 +/- 35.38 (N = 17) in the case of middle form, 18.69 +/- 26.65 (N = 56) in moderate and in severe case of chronic gastritis 5.23 +/- 5.93 (N = 7) cells in mm2 of mucosa. The level of somatostatin in the serum of middle form gastritis were 26.43 +/- 28.76, moderate 19.95 +/- 35.93 and severe 17.88 +/- 17.66 pg/mL. In order to determine the number of somatostatin cells in antrum mucosa and serum somatostatin with present morphological changes of mucosa, it might helpful to exclude the patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia, but with the higher risk of premalignant and malignant changes.
