Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The gastroduodenum has multiple means by which it resists injury from intrinsic and extrinsic factors, including gastric acid, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and Helicobacter pylori. We review recent insights into the mechanisms by which the gastroduodenum resists injury and discuss factors contributing to defensive failure. RECENT FINDINGS: Duodenal bicarbonate secretion, a primary defensive mechanism, is mediated by the downregulated in adenoma anion exchanger and is stimulated by estrogens. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug gastric damage is dependent on toll-like receptor signaling. Portal hypertensive gastropathy impairs extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation, increasing oxidative stress. H. pylori-induced peptic ulcer disease is associated with inadequate regulatory T cell responses. SUMMARY: Enhanced understanding of the mechanisms of gastroduodenal defense and injury provides new insight into potential therapeutic targets, which contributes towards the development of more well tolerated and more effective therapies.
