The trace P-450HSj isozyme (Mr. 51.5 Kd) was found in human gastric mucosa. It was similar to P-450j in molecular weight, catalytic and immunochemical properties. The concentrations of P-450HSj in mucosa of lesser curvature were higher than those in greater curvature. This might be one of the important reasons that lesser curvature is the commonest area for gastric carcinoma. But there was possibly less P-450HSj in gastric mucosa with cancer. Im-munohistochemically, P-450HSj was discovered in the cytoplasm of some glandular epithelial cells, especially in the glands with hyperplastic and intestinal metaplastic changes adjacent to carcinoma.
