Abstract
AIM: Helicobacter pylori infection of the stomach is a common disease and the resulting changes from it are many and deserve to be in the focus of researchers’ attention, to assess the expression of mutant P53 protein and Ki-67 markers in patients with gastritis secondary to H. pylori.
METHODS: Thirty samples with positive H. pylori gastritis were included in a retrospective study in Mosul/Iraq. The histological parameters were assessed using the Sydney system, then, the expression of Ki-67 and P53 expression was studied by immunohistochemical methods. The significance level was appointed at (0.05).
RESULTS: Ki-67 and P53 expression were found in 83.3% of the total cases. The study results show that 92% of positive Ki-67 and P53 cases had chronic inflammatory cell infiltration, polymorph nuclear cells infiltration, and atrophy. Whereas 96% of positive Ki-67 cases had no metaplasia, 92% of the positive P53 cases had no metaplasia. The results also showed that only 16% of the positive Ki-67 cases had dysplastic changes, and 24% of the positive cases of P53 cases were showed dysplasia. whenever P53 was negative; there is neither metaplasia nor dysplasia in the tissue, this does not apply to Ki-67 negative cases.
CONCLUSIONS: Ki-67 and P53 expressions increase with chronicity of Helicobacter pylori-positive gastritis. P53 expression is amplified when atrophy is present in these samples.
