The human gastric mucosa can be divided into three different functional regions, i.e., the cardia, the corpus, and the antrum. Classically, the cellular constituents are defined as surface mucous cells (SMCs)/gastric pit cells, oxyntic cells, mucous neck and antral gland cells, zymogenic cells and endocrine cells. Here, a first expression profile of human gastric glands is presented using RT-PCR analysis after laser microdissection.Read More
