ABSTRACT
The role of autoimmunity in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer remains controversial. We studied antiparietal cell antibody (anti-PCA) and anti-intrinsic factor antibody (anti-IFA) levels and their associations with pepsinogen I/pepsinogen II levels in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma compared to a control group with mild or no atrophy of the stomach mucosa. Plasma levels of anti-PCA and anti-IFA were measured by ELISA (Inova Diagnostics Inc, San Diego, California, USA). The cutoff value for anti-PCA and anti-IFA positivity was ≥25 units. Altogether 214 patients (126 men, 88 women, median age 64.46, range 35-86) with confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma and 214 control cases paired for age and sex were included in the study. Positive anti-PCA was present in 22 (10.3%) gastric cancer patients and controls (P ≥ 0.999); positive anti-IFA in 6 (2.8%) and 4 (1.9.%), P < 0.232, respectively. We did not find significant differences in anti-PCA and anti-IFA positivity between gastric cancer patients and the control group; further investigation is required to better understand the potential involvement of autoimmune gastritis in the development of gastric cancer.
