Gastric cancer clinical conditions
| No | Name | Clinical conditions |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Normal | The mucosa is free from irregular structure and abnormal lining. |
| 2 | Metaplasia | The existence of gastric-type mucus-secreting cells is described by the gastric metaplasia in the mucosa of the epithelium of the duodenum. The gastric foveolar epithelium caused limits the syndrome to a duodenal bulb and includes the replacement of normal absorptive and goblet cells [23]. |
| 3 | Dysplasia | When the cells of the gastric mucosa are transformed into abnormal then stomach epithelial dysplasia appears. The most common type of stomach cancer adenocarcinoma forms when this cell irregularity appears[24]. |
| 4 | Sparce | Integrin beta and MMP-2 protein levels and SPARC are upregulated in stomach tumors examined with adjacent noncancerous tissues [25]. |
| 5 | Atrophic | Atrophic type cancer is also known as Type A or Type B gastritis. Atrophic is the process of persistent gastric lining, pointing to the loss of gastric epithelial cells and their future replacement by intestinal and fibrous tissue [26]. |
