Mast cell involvement in chronic gastritis in children was analyzed. 25 children with normal mucosa (controls), 20 children with chronic gastritis and 28 children with chronic gastritis and infected Helicobacter pylori were included to the study. Bioptic material from antrum and corpus of the stomach were stained with toluidine blue and anti-human mast cell tryptase to evaluate mast cell density. Changes in mast cells number were also estimated in 7 children before and after successful eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection. Mast cell density was significantly greater in children with chronic gastritis with or without Helicobacter pylori infection when compared to the controls. Mast cell degranulation was demonstrated by electron microscopy in children with chronic gastritis and infected Helicobacter pylori. Mast cell through it's numerous mediators may play a key role in chronic gastritis especially when Helicobacter pylori infection is present.
