In solution, proteins form hydrogen bonds with water molecules through their exposed polar and ionic groups.

This is when bile created by the liver backflows into the stomach. This irritates the stomach lining and causes inflammation. * Certain illegal drugs such as cocaine are known to cause gastriti", "The most common cause of peptic ulcer disease is a bacterial infection (H pylori) in the stomach. Another common cause is taking anti-inflammatory medications (such as ibuprofen, prednisone, and aspirin). Gastritis is an irritation of the stomach lining. It can be acute (recent) or chronic (lasting a long time). Gastritis can be caused by overuse of alcohol or anti-inflammatory medications (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, prednisone).

An additional common cause of gastritis and ulcers is nonsteroidal anti–inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, naproxen, and others. These disorders result from an imbalance between gastric acid, which irritates the stomach lining, and the mucus barrier, which protects the stomach lining. In the past, gastritis and ulcers were thought to be due to emotional stress. However, in recent years, researchers have found that, while stress may play a minor role, infection by bacteria called Helicobacter pylori, or H. pylori, are the cause of most cases worldwide", "Gastritis describes a group of conditions with one thing in common: inflammation of the lining of the stomach. The inflammation of gastritis is most often the result of infection with the same bacterium that causes most stomach ulcers. ", "Overview of Gastritis. Gastritis is a disorder characterized by irritation or inflammation of the stomach lining (mucosa). The condition often causes abdominal pain and tenderness, nausea, and vomiting.

Chronic gastritis is characterized by inflammation and the wearing away of the stomach lining.
