Q

Pathogenesis autoimmune gastritis

A

CD4 T cells against parietal cell components like H/K ATPase
chief cells get destroyed too
reduced serum pepsinogen
antral/fundic hyperplasia
Vit B12 def
defective gastric acid secretion (achlorhydria)

Q

how to differentiat H pylor assoc chronic gastritis or autoimmune

A

HP antrum / AI is in body of stomach!!!!
HP neutrophils plasma cells/ AI lymphocytes and macrophages
HP acid increased / AI acid decreased
