THE REVIEW ON DISEASE GASTRITIS

Shraddha Chaudhari*

Abstract

There is evidence concerning the participation of reactive oxygen species in the etiology and physiopathology of human diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders, inflammation, viral infections, autoimmune pathologies, and digestive system disorders such as gastrointestinal inflammation and gastric ulcer. The stomach is the main organ of exposure and absorption of nutrients, toxic food contaminants and therapeutic drugs. It is also exposed to secreted metabolites and the metabolic products coming from the intestinal bacteria. The alteration of the integrity and/or function of the intestinal epithelium produce a negative impact on the rest of the organism. This review was designed to analyze the existing data from in vitro and in vivo animal and human studies.

Keywords: inflammation, nutrients, neurodegenerative disorders, gastric ulcer.
