Altogether 850 patients suffering from chronic constipation were examined. Of these, 80% only showed functional changes in the intestine, 5% lost the defecation reflex, and 15% manifested inflammation-induced lesions in the intestine. 80% of the patients demonstrated symptoms of dysbacteriosis. Multimodality treatment appeared to produce an appreciable effect in the majority of the patients. As a result many of the patients gave up laxatives.
The distribution of gastrin-, gamma-endorphin and somatostatin-producing cells in antral and duodenal mucosa was studied in biopsies from 26 patients with duodenal ulcer and from 13 controls by the immunohistochemical (PAP) method. The number of antral somatostatin-producing cells after dalargin treatment was significantly higher in comparison with controls and patients treated with antacids plus atropine. These changes may be connected with the antiulcer activity of dalargin, a new opioid peptide drug.
Possibilities of application of immunomorphologic methods to gastrointestinal apud cells study were evaluated. These are: immunofluorescent, immunoenzyme, immune-peroxidase, peroxidase-antiperoxidase, avidinbiotin. Causes of immunologic and non-immunologic non-specific background staining and the means of its elimination are discussed, as well as problems of fixation and embedding of the material.
