Fig. 5From: Evaluation of mutagenesis, necrosis and apoptosis induced by omeprazole in stomach cells of patients with gastritisPhotomicrographic profile (light microscopy-1000 × magnification, Giemsa staining) of cytogenetic analyzes of cells obtained from stomach biopsies of patients with gastritis (1–3); with gastritis treated with omeprazole (4–6); with gastritis and H. pylori on omeprazole treatment (7–9). In slides (1–3) intact chromatin (IC) is observed, but with some nuclear alterations. In slides (4–9) greater amounts of cell death and cytogenetic alterations are observed.
