35 WHO 2010 introduction Precursor lesions of invasive neoplasia (intraepithelial neoplasia) of the tubal gut Intraepithelial neoplasia encompasses all premalignant lesions, with or without typical characteristics of dysplasia; the term dysplasia is only used when a morphologically identifiable lesion exists. Dysplasia is the term used to indicate histologically unequivocal neoplastic epithelium without evidence of tissue invasion.

36 WHO 2010 introduction Precursor lesions of invasive neoplasia (intraepithelial neoplasia) of the tubal gut The use of the term carcinoma in situ for columnar precursor lesions is strongly discouraged (included in high grade dysplasia). Intramucosal adenocarcinoma is the term used for lesions that show invasion into the lamina propria or muscularis mucosa but not into the submucosa (what qualifies as evidence of invasion?).

37 Intraepithelial neoplasia versus Dysplasia Recognizing that the terminology of dysplasia is entrenched in the European and particularly North-American literature, as well as in clinical practice, WHO considers that intraepithelial neoplasia and dysplasia should be considered as synonymous terms. The following categories should thus be considered: 1.Negative for intraepithelial neoplasia /dysplasia* 2.Indefinite for intraepithelial neoplasia /dysplasia 3.Low -grade intraepithelial neoplasia/dysplasia 4.High-grade intraepithelial neoplasia/dysplasia 5.Intramucosal invasive neoplasia/intramucosal carcinoma WHO 4th Edition, 2010 *In stomach, and as far as these guidelines are concerned, category 1 includes lesions such as atrophic chronic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia.

40 Pathologic criteria of carcinoma in Japan Differential diagnosis between adenoma and adenocarcinoma is made on the basis of the cellular and structural atypia Kushima R, The 3 rd Korean GI Endoscopists & Pathologists Conference 2010 Western perspectives in the diagnosis of intramucosal carcinoma Defines carcinoma that invades lamina propria Desmoplastic changes (minimal or absent) Single infiltrating cells in the lamina propria Distinct structural anomalies, such as - marked glandular crowding - excessive branching - budding - intraluminal necrotic debris WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system 2010

41 Intramucosal invasive neoplasia/intramucosal carcinoma Branching and budding of glands Intraluminal necrotic debris Fused or cribriforming glands

46 Molecular mechanisms underlying the glycan-mediated adhesion and infection of Helicobacter pylori: Glycan mediated Helicobacter pylori adhesion to gastric mucosa > H. pylori needs to establish a close contact with the gastric epithelial cells SabA (Sialic acid binding adhesin) (Mahdavi et al., Science, 2002) - binds sialyl-lewis x and sialyl-lewis a. BabA (blood group antigen-binding adhesin) (Ilver et al, Science 1998) - recognizes H-type I and Lewis b. Sialyl-Lewis a H type 1 Lewis b Sialyl- Lewis x Magalhães A et al. Expert Rev Proteomics, 7:307; Magalhães A et al. BJMBR, 43:611, 2010

47 Molecular mechanisms underlying the glycan-mediated adhesion and infection of Helicobacter pylori: Helicobacter pylori induces alterations in the glycosylation of the gastric mucosal leading to the synthesis of sialylated Lewis antigens, the ligands of SabA.

Features of cytological abnormality Features of structural abnormality included increased crypt complexity with crowding, branching glandular epithelium, fused glands, budding, a cribriform pattern, and variability of crypt size and shape
