Popis: Abstract Pyloric gland adenoma (PGA) is a duodenal neoplasm expressing MUC6 and is often associated with high-grade dysplasia and adenocarcinoma. MUC6 secreted from the pyloric gland cells carries unique O-glycans exhibiting terminal α1,4-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues (αGlcNAc). The small peptide trefoil factor 2 (TFF2) is also secreted from pyloric gland cells and binds to αGlcNAc. We recently demonstrated that αGlcNAc serves as a tumor suppressor for gastric neoplasm including PGA, but the significance of TFF2 expression remains unknown. We examined 20 lesions representing low- and high-grade PGA in 22 cases by immunohistochemistry for αGlcNAc, TFF2, MUC6, MUC5AC, MUC2 and p53. αGlcNAc, TFF2 and MUC6 were co-expressed on the cell surface and a dot-like pattern in the cytosol in low-grade PGA lesions. High-grade PGA also expressed MUC6, but reduced αGlcNAc and TFF2 expression. The ratios of αGlcNAc or TFF2 to MUC6 score in high-grade PGA were significantly lower than low-grade PGA (P
