Alterations to the Esophageal Microbiome Associated with Progression from Barrett's Esophagus to Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention, 2019
Background: The incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma has risen dramatically over the past half century, and the underlying reasons are incompletely understood. Broad shifts to the upper gastrointestinal microbiome may be partly responsible. The goal of

Clinical significance of VEGF-A, -C and -D expression in esophageal malignancies [PDF]

, 2005
Vascular endothelial growth factors ( VEGF)- A, - C and - D are members of the proangiogenic VEGF family of glycoproteins. VEGF-A is known to be the most important angiogenic factor under physiological and pathological conditions, while VEGF-C and VEGF-D

Pressure -- area loop based phenotypic classification and mechanics of esophagogastric junction physiology [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
The esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is located at the distal end of the esophagus and acts as a valve allowing swallowed materials to enter the stomach and preventing acid reflux. Irregular weakening or stiffening of the EGJ muscles result in changes to its opening and closing patterns which can progress into esophageal disorders.
