microRNA involvement in the onset and progression of Barrett's esophagus: a systematic review

open access: yesOncotarget, 2018
Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is a highly aggressive malignancy that develops from Barrett's esophagus (BE), an intestinal metaplasia of the distal esophagus. microRNAs (miRNAs), short non-coding regulatory RNAs, are frequently dysregulated in BE and are thought to play key roles in the onset of BE and its progression to EAC.

Expression of the bile acid receptor FXR in Barrett's esophagus and enhancement of apoptosis by guggulsterone in vitro

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2006
Background Barrett's esophagus, a risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma, is associated with reflux disease. The aim of this study was to assess the expression of bile acid receptors in the esophagus (normal, esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus and ...

Modeling inflammation and oxidative stress in gastrointestinal disease development using novel organotypic culture systems. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett's esophagus (BE), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are common human gastrointestinal diseases that share inflammation as a key

A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of an Adenocarcinoma Risk Prediction Biomarker Test for Patients With Barrett’s Esophagus

open access: yesJournal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews, 2017
Background: Current surveillance guidelines for identifying patients with Barrett’s esophagus (BE) at high risk of progressing to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) are considered inefficient because less than 1% of all BE patients are likely to develop EAC.

Sex steroid hormones in relation to Barrett’s esophagus: An analysis of the FINBAR Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Previously we observed strong positive associations between circulating concentrations of free testosterone and free dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in relation to Barrett’s esophagus in a US male military population.

Review: Diagnosis and management of Barrett’s esophagus for the endoscopist

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology, 2010
In Barrett’s esophagus, the stratified squamous epithelium lining the esophagus is replaced by specialized intestinal-type columnar epithelium. The prevalence of Barrett’s esophagus has ranged from 0.9% to 4.5%.

Barrett's esophagus: Ten years of experience at a tertiary care hospital center in Mexico

open access: yesRevista de Gastroenterología de México (English Edition), 2018
Introduction: The prevalence of Barrett's esophagus has been calculated at between 1.3 and 1.6%. There is little information with respect to this in Mexico.

Evaluation of Serum Glycoprotein Biomarker Candidates for Detection of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and Surveillance of Barrett's Esophagus

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Proteomics, 2018
Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is thought to develop from asymptomatic Barrett's esophagus (BE) with a low annual rate of conversion. Current endoscopy surveillance of BE patients is probably not cost-effective. Previously, we discovered serum glycoprotein biomarker candidates which could discriminate BE patients from EAC.

The Oxidative Damage and Inflammation Mechanisms in GERD-Induced Barrett’s Esophagus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Barrett’s esophagus is a major complication of gastro-esophageal reflux disease and an important precursor lesion for the development of Barrett’s metaplasia and esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease and tooth erosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The increasing prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children and adults, and of “silent refluxers” in particular, increases the responsibility of dentists to be alert to this potentially severe condition when observing unexplained ...
