    Background The trefoil factor family (TFF) 2 protein is produced by gastric gland mucous cells (GMCs), and the secreted TFF2 shares a mucosal barrier function with GMC-type mucin. Recently, we presented an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for measurement of GMC-type mucin in the gastric juice. Aims We aimed to develop an ELISA for TFF2 and to assess pathophysiological changes in the gastric surface mucous gel layer (SMGL) of patients with Helicobacter pylori infection. Methods The distribution of TFF2 and GMC-type mucin in the SMGL was immunohistochemically determined. The ELISA for TFF2 was based on a polyclonal goat antibody. Recombinant TFF2 was employed to prepare the calibrators. TFF2 and GMC-type mucin in the gastric juice in healthy individuals (n = 33) and patients with gastritis (n = 37), gastric ulcer (n = 16), and duodenal ulcer (n = 10) were assayed using ELISA. Results TFF2 and GMC-type mucin were immunohistochemically co-localized in the gastric SMGL and GMCs. The TFF2 levels in the patients were significantly higher than those in the healthy individuals. Further, the TFF2 levels in the H. pylori-positive patients were significantly higher than those in the H. pylori-negative patients, and decreased after the eradication of the infection. GMC-type mucin levels showed a tendency similar to that of TFF2 levels. Conclusions The upregulation of TFF2 and GMC-type mucin secretion may reflect the response of the gastric mucosa to H. pylori-induced injuries. TFF2 and GMC-type mucin secreted into the SMGL may protect the gastric mucosa against H. pylori.ArticleDIGESTIVE DISEASES AND SCIENCES. 56(12):3498-3506 (2011)journal articl

    In Moral EducationII, Durkheim tried to put a theory of moral education(in Moral Education I) to practical use, to apply "Collective representation" and "Social Realism" in his sociological works at this time , to pedagogy. He result from them, he constructed a theory on "altruism" in the child, established the authority of the secular teacher, developped the school teaching, and reconstructed tha role of school as "aasociation" in the thierd Republic in French. Even so, "Collective representation" and "Social Realism" contributed many ideas to the field of Pedagogy, Moral Laique, and Moral science. Moral Education II is further a works of theory,not only practical manual
