OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency and significance of pancreatic acinar cells in the gastric oxyntic mucosa.
DESIGN: One hundred gastric oxyntic mucosal biopsy specimens from patients with chronic active gastritis (n = 30), multifocal atrophic gastritis (n = 15), autoimmune gastritis (n = 18), and normal gastric oxyntic mucosa (n = 37) were evaluated for the presence of pancreatic acinar cells. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and those positive for pancreatic acinar cells were immunostained with antibodies against trypsin and pancreatic amylase.
RESULTS: Eleven (11%) of 100 oxyntic mucosal tissue samples contained pancreatic acinar cells. These samples came from 9 of the 18 (50%) specimens of autoimmune gastritis, 1 of the 15 (6.6%) specimens of multifocal atrophic gastritis, and 1 of the 37 (2.7%) specimens of normal oxyntic mucosa. None of the samples with chronic active gastritis contained pancreatic acinar cells.
CONCLUSIONS: Pancreatic acinar cells were found in the oxyntic mucosa of patients with autoimmune gastritis significantly more frequently (P <.001) than in individuals with multifocal atrophic gastritis, normal oxyntic mucosa, or chronic active gastritis. Our study supports a metaplastic origin for pancreatic acinar cells in the oxyntic mucosa. Furthermore, detection of pancreatic acinar cells in the oxyntic mucosa of patients with gastritis strongly suggests an autoimmune pathogenesis.
