Barretts's carcinogenesis

Abstract: Barrett's esophagus is considered a precancerous lesion of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Long‐segment Barrett's esophagus, which is generally associated with intestinal metaplasia, has a higher rate of carcinogenesis than short‐segment Barrett's esophagus, which is mainly composed of cardiac‐type mucosa. However, a large number of cases reportedly develop EAC from the cardiac‐type mucosa which has the potential to involve intestinal phenotypes. There is no consensus regarding whether the definition of Barre… Show more

“…Since the esophagogastric junction is located on the dorsal side of the body, when a person lies down in the supine position immediately after eating, the esophagogastric junction is exposed to bile acid reflux. Since bile acids are involved in the onset of Barrett’s esophagus [ 24 , 46 48 ] and PACM too is suggested to be associated with Barrett’s esophagus, bile acids may be associated with PACM.…”

“…Chronic exposure of the esophageal mucosa to gastroduodenal fluid (bile salts and hydrochloric acid) causes active and erosive esophagitis, resulting in metaplasia of squamous cells to columnar epithelial cells, and submucosal fibrosis as Barrett's esophagus. It has been shown that chronic gastroesophageal reflux induces Barrett's esophagus according to clinicopathological analyses [5,6] and experimental studies using animal models [7][8][9][10]. Regarding the requirement of goblet cells (intestinal metaplasia) within the columnar-lined mucosa, the global histological definition of Barrett's esophagus is still controversial in Europe, the US, the UK and Japan [5] (Figure 2).…”
