Stomach ulcers are common in pigs, like they are in humans. Until recently, the cause of this disease was unclear. The results from this thesis show that two bacteria play a role. One of these ...

A dangerous stomach condition is silently affecting millions of Americans, often developing for years without obvious symptoms until serious complications emerge. Atrophic gastritis represents one of ...

Scientists have decoded critical genetic factors in intestinal metaplasia patients, shedding light on early signs and prevention strategies for stomach cancer -- often a 'ticking time bomb' as ...

Jim Wells, PhD, Divisions of Developmental Biology and Endocrinology at Cincinnati Children's, explains how the first-time molecular generation of 3D human gastric organoids (hGOs) presents new ...

That innocent salt shaker sitting on your dining table might not be as harmless as it appears. Groundbreaking research involving nearly half a million participants has uncovered a troubling connection ...

Common conditions such as indigestion and heartburn, as well as peptic ulcers, autoimmune gastritis and stomach and esophageal cancers involve disruptions of the normal activity of parietal cells (PCs ...

Lab-grown mini-organs are advancing at an incredible rate, opening up new ways for scientists to model biology, diseases and new treatments. In a new study, scientists have created the most advanced ...

A pioneering study has revealed new insights into the role of gastric bacteria in stomach cancer development that could pave the way for a more effective treatment of pre-cancer according to a study ...

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) are bacteria that live in the stomach of about two-thirds of the global population. Strong evidence suggests that it can cause cancer. H. pylori does not cause symptoms ...

The stomach is an important organ, both physiologically and ecologically. All vertebrates, with very few exceptions, enjoy the benefits of a stomach, which include improved food storage and digestion.

In a breakthrough study published in the highly respected journal Cancer Cell[1], researchers have decoded critical genetic factors in intestinal metaplasia patients, shedding light on early signs and ...
