A total of 499 stomachs consisted of 393 slaughter and 106 breeding pigs from industrial farm was examined for ulcerative lesions grossly and microscopically. The relationship between the ulcerative lesions and stomach contents was also examined. 1. The majority of stomachs has one or more lesions of ulcerative process, including parakeratosis(64.1%), erosions(10.2%), acute ulcers(2.8%), chronic ulcers(1.4%), and scars(0.8%). 2. The incidence and the degree of the esophagogastric lesions in the breeding pigs were similar to those of the slaughter pigs. But ulcerative lesions of the fundic lesions in the breeding pigs were found to be more remarkable than those of the slaughter pigs. 3. The stomach contents of the pigs having gastric ulcers were mostly fluid in nature, which were dry in the normal stomach. 4. Histologically, muscular hypertrophy, connective tissue hyperplasia and vascularity were shown in the ulcerative lesions of the esophagogastric portion. Thrombosis, necrosis and granulation tissue formation were found frequently.

In order to evaluate the prevention effect of Sunkiwhajung-tang (SWT) which has been used as a traditional prescription for the treatment of digestive disease in Korea on the gastric ulcer induced by indomethacin in rats, the changes of number and size of ulcerative lesions, parietal, chief, Grimelius and Serotonin-positive cells in the peri-ulcerative tissues were detected with histological examinations of ulcerative and peri-ulcerative lesions after oral injections of SWT extracts (125, 250 and 500 mg/kg, respectively). SWT prevented to a great extent the expected indomethacin-induced elevation in hemorrhagic ulcerative lesions, the number and size of ulcerative lesions, and the number of parietal cell, chief cell, Grimelius-positive cells and Serotonin-positive cells in the peri-ulcerative lesions in a dose dependent manner. These results provide a story evidence that SWT produced an protective effect on gastric ulcer induced by indomethacin. Determination of the specific mechanisms involved in the protective effect of SWT on the gastric ulcer will require additional study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to cast light on initiating molecular events associated with the development of premalignant oral lesions induced by tobacco and/or areca nut. Method: Immunohistochemical analyses of cell cycle regulatory proteins (LIMD1, RBSP3, p16, RB, phosphorylated RB, p53), EGFR and SH3GL2 (EGFR associated protein) were performed with inflammatory/ulcerative epithelium and adjacent hyperplastic/mild dysplastic lesions. Results: No change in expression of the proteins was seen in inflammatory epithelium. Reduced nuclear expression of LIMD1 was evident in ulcerative epithelium. In hyperplastic lesions, reduced expression of RBSP3, p16, SH3GL2 and overexpression of p-RB and EGFR were apparent. Reduced nuclear expression of p53 was observed in mild dysplastic lesions. Conclusion: Our data suggest that inactivation of LIMD1 in ulcerative epithelium might predispose the tissues to alterations of other cell cycle regulatory and EGFR signaling proteins needed for the development of premalignant oral lesions.

An ulcer is defined as loss of epithelium. Although many oral ulcers have similar clinical appearances, their etiologies encompass many disorders, including trauma, infection, immunologic disease, and malignant oral cancer. Oral squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) occupying about 90% of oral cancer, usually manifests as unhealed ulcer over 2 weeks. Oral SCC can metastasize to the cervical neck lymph node, and therefore the surgical therapeutic modality for oral SCC could encompass the neck node dissection as well as wide excision for primary lesions, which should leave the post-operative complication of functional damage like dysphagia and facial deformity. Therefore, it is important to discriminate oral SCC from other ulcerative conditions to make a prompt management. The knowledge for the pathogenesis of the ulcerative lesions could help the clinicians to understand the differences of clinical features and to practice an appropriate therapeutics.

저자들은 궤양성 대장염으로 진단되어 치료 중이던 15세 소아에서 발생한 간정맥 혈전증(Budd-Chiari 증후군) 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고한다. 간정맥 혈전증은 소아 궤양성 대장염의 매우 드문 혈관계 합병증으로 이환율과 사망률의 주요한 원인이 될 수 있으므로 진단과 치료에 보다 세심한 주의가 필요하다.

만성 궤양성 치은 병소는 편평태선, 양성점막유천포창, 심상성 천포창 등과 같은 다양한 질환에 의해 유발될 수 있으며 코티코스테로이드 약물요법이 주된 치료로 이용된다. 코티코스테로이드를 복용하는 경우 위장장애, 체중증가 등의 부작뿐만 아니라 장기 복용 시 골다공증, 당뇨 및 고혈압 발생 또는 악화, 부신기능 저하, 쿠싱증후군 등의 심각한 부작용이 발생 할 수 있어 병소가 국소 부위에 제한되어 발생하거나 전신증상을 동반하지 않는 경우 스테로이드 약물의 국소 도포가 만성 궤양성 치은 병소의 주된 치료로 이용되고 있다. 하지만 국소 스테로이드 치료를 구강 내에 사용하는 경우 타액 분비, 혀, 입술, 협점막 등의 움직임에 의해 도포한 약제가 소실되어 효과가 감소되고 병소가 넓은 부위에 분포하거나 구강 내 깊숙한 부위에 발생하는 경우 환자 스스로 약물을 도포하기가 용이하지 않으며, 질병에 이환 되지 않은 정상 점막에도 약제가 도포 되는 등의 단점이 있다. 국소 스테로이드 적용 방법의 단점을 극복하고 효과를 최대화함으로써 스테로이드 복용을 최소화할 수 있는 방법으로 스텐트를 이용한 스테로이드 밀폐 요법이 보고된 바 있으나 실제 임상에서 적극적으로 활용되지는 않고 있다. 따라서 만성 궤양성 치은 병소가 발생한 환자에게 스텐트를 이용한 국소스테로이드 치료를 시행하여 양호한 치료 효과를 보인 증례를 통해 그 효용성과 임상적 활용 방안을 알아보고자 한다.

Ulcerative colitis is a form of inflammatory bowel disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the colon and rectum. The abnormal lesions in the digestive system caused by ulcerative colitis and intermittent colitis are of major clinical importance. MDM2 is a phospho-protein that functions as a ubiquitin ligase for p53. Recently, a T>G substitution in the promoter of the MDM2 gene (rs309) has been identified. In this case-control study, 174 ulcerative colitis biopsy samples and 82 control samples were collected from colonoscopy centers, hospitals, and clinics in Mazandaran and Gilan Provinces in Iran from October 2014 to May 2015. This MDM2 polymorphism was investigated in DNA samples (extracted from biopsy samples) by amplification-refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction. The mean age of patients with ulcerative colitis was 46.5 years (range, 28 to 69 years) and that of control individuals was 45.3 years (range, 26 to 71 years). Seventy-eight patients (44.82%) were men and 96 (55.18%) were women. The distribution of the TT, TG, and GG genotypes was 17.93%, 27.59%, and 34.48%, respectively, in the ulcerative colitis patients and 31.70%, 24.40%, and 43.90%, respectively, in the control individuals (odds ratio of GG for ulcerative colitis, 7.142; 95% confidence interval, 2.400 to 9.542; p = 0.001). It was found that a single-nucleotide polymorphism at rs309 in the MDM2 gene was associated with ulcerative colitis. A direct relationship was found between age and ulcerative colitis, while no relationship was found with sex. This finding is of note because the occurrence of intestinal inflammation and subsequent ulcers can precede the development of cancer.

Objectives: This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of Jageum-jung extract on Dextran sulfate sodium (DSS-induced) ulcerative colitis in mice. Methods: Ulcerative colitis was induced by DSS in Balb/C male mice. Ten mice were assigned to each of four groups: Ctrl (control), UE (ulcerative colitis-induced), PT (treated with pentasaccharide after induction of ulcerative colitis), and JT (treated with Jageum-jung extract after induction of ulcerative colitis). The effects of Jageum-jung extract were measured by restoration of the length of the intestine, degree of mucosal damage as seen with histochemistry, and changes of p-IkB, iNOS, COX-2, and caspase-3 determined by immunohistochemistry. Results: The recovered intestinal length of the JT group was longer than that of the UE group. In the colon mucosa of JT group, hemorrhagic lesions were reduced, and the mucus barrier was recovered. This group also showed inhibited production of inflammatory enzymes (iNOS, COX-2) through regulation of proinflammatory enzyme (NF-kB, p65) activity in the colon. In addition, caspase 3 activation induced apoptosis. By GC/MS analysis, azetidine was identified. Conclusions: This study confirmed the anti-inflammatory effects of jageum-jung extract, and suggests the possibility of using Jageum-jung extract to treat ulcerative colitis. Further experiments and research on the mechanism of Jageum-jung effects are needed.

Purpose: Infection with HIV-1 virus has become a critical worldwide public health problem. The oral complications of HIV infection with its progression of impairment of the host response to combat infection present unique challenges to the periodontists. Material and Methods : Medline research was carried out to find relationship of the progression of HIV infection to the occurrence of oral lesions including the HIV-related periodontal diseases. Results: The linear gingival erythema, necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis, necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis and oral candidiasis are common lesions in HIV-infected individuals. The linear gingival erythema and necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis lesions in HIV-infected subjects were found to have a similar microbiological profile. There are several general considerations in the periodontal management of the HIV-infected patient with or without periodontal disease. The altered immunity and host response in patients with HIV infection may also affect the incidence and severity of other common forms of periodontal disease not associated with HIV infection. Conclusion: Periodontal diseases in HIV-infected individuals present unique challenges in diagnosis, monitoring, treatment and maintenance. Therefore exact HIV staging, geographic location, antiviral and antimicrobial therapies and oral habits should be taken into consideration when treating HIV-infected patients.
