Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 14. Clinical relevance of DDIT4 and ferroptosis in human gastric intestinal metaplasia tissues. (A) Western blot data for the expression levels of DDIT4, ALOX15, HMOX1 and GPX4 in human GIM and non-atrophic gastritis (GS) tissues. (B–C) IHC staining showing DDIT4 and GPX4 expression in human GS and GIM tissues. Representative images (Scale bar, 10 mm) shown in (B). Quantification of staining shown in (C). (D–E) C11-BODIPY and DCFH-DA staining measured with a fluo- rescence microscope showing lipid peroxidation (D) and ROS levels (E) in human GS and GIM tissues. (F) Diagram of the mechanism by which loss of DDIT4 promoted H. pylori-induced gastric metaplasia lesions through metabolic regulation of ferroptosis. Chronic H. pylori infection causes the loss of DDIT4 and mTOR signaling pathway activation, which in turn inhibits GSH synthesis and increases ROS levels and lipid peroxides, inducing ferroptosis in the gastric microenvironment. As a result, gastric metaplasia lesions develop following parietal cell loss. *P < .05; **P < .01; and ***P < .001 were considered significant.
