BACKGROUND: Duodenal changes in functional dyspepsia (FD) might be related to the development of symptoms. However, relationships among low-grade inflammation, Helicobacter pylori infection, and protein expression by tight junctions (TJs) in the duodenum are unclear. We therefore aimed to determine whether duodenal inflammation and genes associated with TJ proteins are associated with FD.
METHODS: We evaluated inflammatory cell infiltration of the duodenum, H pylori infection, and genes associated with TJ proteins in duodenal biopsy specimens from 35 patients with FD according to the Rome III diagnostic questionnaire and from 31 asymptomatic controls without structural diseases. We immunohistochemically detected eosinophils and mast cells and counted them. The expression of claudins, occludin, and zonula occludens (ZO)-1 mRNA was evaluated using quantitative RT-PCR. Infection with H pylori was determined by measuring serum antibodies, rapid urease or urea breath tests, and endoscopic findings.
RESULTS: Sex, age, and H pyloriinfection rates did not differ between patients with FD and controls. The numbers of eosinophils and mast cells were significantly increased in patients with FD compared with controls and were significantly correlated. Inflammatory cell counts in the duodenum were not associated with H pylori infection status. Claudin-3 mRNA expression was increased in the patients with FD.
CONCLUSIONS: Subtle inflammation identified in the duodenum of patients with FD might be associated with the onset and persistence of dyspeptic symptoms.
