This review covers recent publications investigating the relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and gastroesophageal reflux disease, Barrett's esophagus, eosinophilic esophagitis, peptic ulcer disease (PUD), H pylori gastritis, and functional dyspepsia. In the area of gastroesophageal reflux disease, new data suggest that reflux may have a role in the transmission of H pylori infection. In addition to several observational studies, data on alterations in esophageal physiology in patients with H pylori infection are presented. Further evidence for the inverse relationship between H pylori infection and Barrett's esophagus is available in the form of a meta‐analysis from the North American Barrett's and Esophageal Carcinoma Consortium. The relationship between H pylori infection and eosinophilic esophagitis remains uncertain. Although new data do not indicate a significantly lower prevalence of H pylori among patients with eosinophilic esophagitis, a meta‐analysis showed a 37% reduced risk of eosinophilic esophagitis among H pylori‐infected patients. Novel data are presented on the genetic variability of bacterial virulence factors and their relationship with PUD. We also report data on plasma biomarkers, which may detect progression to gastric cancer in H pylori‐associated PUD. A new meta‐analysis was published, which assessed the risk of PUD in low‐dose aspirin users with H pylori infection. Finally, we report on the ongoing attempts to stratify patients with gastritis using endoscopic methods when compared to standard biopsy examination.  相似文献

Gastric cancer causes a large social and economic burden to humans. Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) infection is a major risk factor for distal gastric cancer. Detailed elucidation of H pylori pathogenesis is significant for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer. Animal models of H pylori‐induced gastric cancer have provided an invaluable resource to help elucidate the mechanisms of H pylori‐induced carcinogenesis as well as the interaction between host and the bacterium. Rodent models are commonly used to study H pylori infection because H pylori‐induced pathological processes in the stomachs of rodents are similar to those in the stomachs of humans. The risk of gastric cancer in H pylori‐infected animal models is greatly dependent on host factors, bacterial determinants, environmental factors, and microbiota. However, the related mechanisms and the effects of the interactions among these impact factors on gastric carcinogenesis remain unclear. In this review, we summarize the impact factors mediating gastric cancer risk when establishing H pylori‐infected animal models. Clarifying these factors and their potential interactions will provide insights to construct animal models of gastric cancer and investigate the in‐depth mechanisms of H pylori pathogenesis, which might contribute to the management of H pylori‐associated gastric diseases.  相似文献

Understanding the mechanisms involved in induction and regulation of the immune and inflammatory response to Helicobacter pylori is extremely important in determining disease outcomes. H pylori expresses a plethora of factors that influence the host response. Vaccines against H pylori are desperately needed for the prevention of gastric carcinogenesis, especially with the increasing trends in antimicrobial resistance. This review summarizes some important findings, published between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2020, in the areas of H pylori‐mediated inflammation, immunity and vaccines.  相似文献

Individuals with chronic atrophic gastritis who are negative for active H. pylori infection with no history of eradication therapy have been identified in clinical practice. By excluding false‐negative and autoimmune gastritis cases, it can be surmised that most of these patients have experienced unintentional eradication of H. pylori after antibiotic treatment for other infectious disease, unreported successful eradication, or H. pylori that spontaneously disappeared. These patients are considered to have previous H. pylori infection–induced atrophic gastritis. In this work, we define these cases based on the following criteria: absence of previous H. pylori eradication; atrophic changes on endoscopy or histologic confirmation of glandular atrophy; negative for a current H. pylori infection diagnosed in the absence of proton‐pump inhibitors or antibiotics; and absence of localized corpus atrophy, positivity for autoantibodies, or characteristic histologic findings suggestive of autoimmune gastritis. The risk of developing gastric cancer depends on the atrophic grade. The reported rate of developing gastric cancer is 0.31%‐0.62% per year for successfully eradicated severely atrophic cases (pathophysiologically equal to unintentionally eradicated cases and unreported eradicated cases), and 0.53%‐0.87% per year for spontaneously resolved cases due to severe atrophy. Therefore, for previous H. pylori infection–induced atrophic gastritis cases, we recommend endoscopic surveillance every 3 years for high‐risk patients, including those with endoscopically severe atrophy or intestinal metaplasia. Because of the difficulty involved in the endoscopic diagnosis of gastric cancer in cases of previous infection, appropriate monitoring of the high‐risk subgroup of this understudied population is especially important.  相似文献

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the major cause of chronic active gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. Recent studies have shown that H. pylori produces various cytokines that are related to neutrophil or mononuclear cell accumulation. Interleukin‐17 (IL‐17) is the founding member of an emerging family of inflammatory cytokines whose biological activities remain incompletely defined. In this study, the contributions of IL‐17 to the induction of gastric inflammation and to the protection from H. pylori infection were investigated using IL‐17 gene‐knockout (IL‐17?/–) mice. Materials and Methods: IL‐17?/–and wild‐type C57BL/6 mice were challenged with H. pylori CPY2052 (2 × 108 CFU/mL) and the histological and microbiological evaluation were carried out at specified times. IL‐17 and myeloperoxidase (MPO) protein levels in tissues were assayed in duplicate using ELISA kits. Results: In wild‐type mice, IL‐17 was undetected at baseline; however, the protein expression of IL‐17 was induced after infection with H. pylori. A severe infiltration of neutrophils appeared in the submucosa and the lamina propria in wild‐type mice. In contrast, the degree of neutrophil infiltration in IL‐17?/– mice was significantly lower than that in wild‐type mice. Although wild‐type mice infected with H. pylori showed drastically higher MPO activity compared with uninfected wild‐type mice, any significant increase in the enzyme activity was not revealed in infected IL‐17?/– mice. The number of H. pylori colonized in the stomach of IL‐17?/– mice was significantly lower than that of wild‐type mice from 1 to 6 months after infection. Conclusions: These results suggest that IL‐17 may play an important role in the inflammatory response to the H. pylori infection and ultimately influence the outcome of the H. pylori‐associated disease.  相似文献

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is etiologically associated with gastric cancer and peptic ulcer diseases which are both important public health burdens which could be largely eliminated by H. pylori eradication. However, some investigators urge caution based on the hypothesis that eradication of H. pylori may result in an increase in the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease, esophageal adenocarcinoma, and childhood asthma. The ethnic Malays of northeastern Peninsular Malaysia have long had a low prevalence of H. pylori infection and, as expected, the incidence of gastric cancer and its precursor lesions is exceptionally low. The availability of a population with a low H. pylori prevalence and generally poor sanitation allows separation of H. pylori from the hygiene hypothesis and direct testing of whether absence of H. pylori is associated with untoward consequence. Contrary to predictions, in Malays, erosive esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, distal esophageal cancers, and childhood asthma are all of low incidence. This suggests that H. pylori is not protective rather the presence of H. pylori infection is likely a surrogate for poor hygiene and not an important source of antigens involved in the hygiene hypothesis. Helicobacter pylori in Malays is related to transmission from H. pylori‐infected non‐Malay immigrants. The factors responsible for low H. pylori acquisition, transmission, and burden of H. pylori infection in Malays remain unclear and likely involves a combination of environmental, host (gene polymorphisms), and strain virulence factors. Based on evidence from this population, absence of H. pylori infection is more likely to be boon than a bane.  相似文献

γ‐Glutamyltranspeptidase and asparaginase have been shown to play important roles in Helicobacter pylori colonization and cell death induced by H. pylori infection. In this study, the association of γ‐glutamyltranspeptidase and asparaginase was elucidated by comparing activities of both deamidases in H. pylori strains from patients with chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and gastric cancer. γ‐Glutamyltranspeptidase activities in H. pylori strains from patients with gastric cancer were significantly higher than in those from patients with chronic gastritis or gastric ulcers. There was a wide range of asparaginase activities in H. pylori strains from patients with gastric cancer and these were not significantly than those from patients with other diseases. To identify the contributions of γ‐glutamyltranspeptidase and asparaginase to gastric cell inflammation, human gastric epithelial cells (AGS line) were infected with H. pylori wild‐type and knockout strains and inflammatory responses evaluated by induction of interleukin‐8 (IL‐8). IL‐8 response was significantly decreased by knockout of the γ‐glutamyltranspeptidase‐encoding gene but not by knockout of the asparaginase‐encoding gene. Additionally, IL‐8 induction by infection with the H. pylori wild‐type strain was significantly decreased by adding glutamine during infection. These findings indicate that IL‐8 induction caused by γ‐glutamyltranspeptidase activity in H. pylori is mainly attributable to depletion of glutamine. These data suggest that γ‐glutamyltranspeptidase plays a significant role in the chronic inflammation caused by H. pylori infection.  相似文献

Background: Refugee children have complex medical needs and often have multiple infections. The relationship between infection, gastrointestinal symptoms, and systemic inflammation is poorly understood. We investigated these parameters in refugee children with a high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori, helminth, and malaria infection. Materials and Methods: African refugee children were recruited at resettlement health screening. Data were collected on demography, gastrointestinal symptoms, co‐morbid infection, and serum for peripheral cytokine levels. Helicobacter pylori infection was diagnosed by a fecal‐based immunoassay. Results: Data from 163 children were analyzed, of which 84.0% were positive for H. pylori. Infected children were significantly older (9.2 years ± 3.7 vs 7.1 years ± 3.9, p = .01). Half the cohort (84/163, 51.5%) described gastrointestinal symptoms but these were not strongly associated with co‐morbid infections. Helicobacter pylori‐infected children had significantly lower circulating log‐interleukin‐8 (IL‐8) (odds ratio 0.61, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40, 0.94, p = .025). Helminth infections were common (75/163, 46%) and associated with elevated log‐IL‐5 (β: 0.42, 95% CI 0.077, 0.76). Children with malaria (15/163, 9.2%) had elevated log‐tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNFα) and log‐IL‐10 (β: 0.67, 95% CI 0.34, 1.0 and β: 1.3, 95% CI 0.67, 1.9, respectively). IL‐10 : IL‐12 ratios were increased in H. pylori‐infected children with malaria or helminth infections. Symptoms were generally not associated with levels of circulating peripheral cytokines irrespective of co‐morbid infection diagnosis. Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of asymptomatic H. pylori infection in recently resettled African refugee children. Gastrointestinal symptoms were not predictive of H. pylori nor of helminth infections. Serum cytokines, particularly IL‐5, IL‐10, and TNFα, were significantly elevated in children with malaria and helminth infections but not in those with H. pylori infection.  相似文献

This review summarizes recent publications on the epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori. Two major systemic analyses, from Malaysia and Ethiopia, were published. The Brazilian Consensus Conference has stated that H pylori infection is an infectious disease with an indication for antimicrobial therapy. A continuous decrease in H pylori prevalence was reported from many regions worldwide, including Korea, China, Iran, and Austria. A cross‐sectional H pylori prevalence study conducted in the United Arab Emirates found 41% prevalence in a group of healthy children and adults. Several studies from Asia addressed H pylori prevalence in adults undergoing regular checkup. The largest of such studies, performed in Korea, involved 24 471 subjects and reported 41.5% seroprevalence. A relatively smaller study from East China on 3252 subjects reported 27.5% prevalence. In contrast, a study from Spain reported 87.2% seroprevalence. A report on the association between smoking and H pylori seropositivity was published on behalf of the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project—a consortium of epidemiological studies of gastric cancer. Also, other potential risk factors, including occupational risk factors, water supply, and food were analyzed. Gastroesophageal reflux and sexual partners has been associated with a higher risk for H pylori acquisition, and gut microbiota was suggested to play a role in intrafamilial transmission of H pylori. Finally, in a few studies (from Mexico and Japan), the catalytic model for predicting the potential risk of acquiring H pylori infection in the future was used. As anticipated, a further decline in H pylori‐related disease was demonstrated by applying the modeling.  相似文献

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) causes chronic inflammation which is a key precursor to gastric carcinogenesis. It has been suggested that H. pylori may limit this immunopathology by inducing the production of interleukin 33 (IL‐33) in gastric epithelial cells, thus promoting T helper 2 immune responses. The molecular mechanism underlying IL‐33 production in response to H. pylori infection, however, remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that H. pylori activates signalling via the pathogen recognition molecule Nucleotide‐Binding Oligomerisation Domain‐Containing Protein 1 (NOD1) and its adaptor protein receptor‐interacting serine–threonine Kinase 2, to promote production of both full‐length and processed IL‐33 in gastric epithelial cells. Furthermore, IL‐33 responses were dependent on the actions of the H. pylori Type IV secretion system, required for activation of the NOD1 pathway, as well as on the Type IV secretion system effector protein, CagA. Importantly, Nod1+/+ mice with chronic H. pylori infection exhibited significantly increased gastric IL‐33 and splenic IL‐13 responses, but decreased IFN‐γ responses, when compared with Nod1?/? animals. Collectively, our data identify NOD1 as an important regulator of mucosal IL‐33 responses in H. pylori infection. We suggest that NOD1 may play a role in protection against excessive inflammation.  相似文献

Background

Helicobacter pylori is coexisted with various diseases, including chronic gastritis, ulcer, and gastric cancer. Besides, chronic cholecystitis and cholelithiasis are extremely widespread over the world, which are considered as high health‐care cost burdens of digestive diseases. Epidemiologic evidence on Helicobacter pylori infection in gallbladder increasing the risk of biliary diseases has been contradictory.

Aim

Conduct a meta‐analysis of overall studies and investigate an association between Helicobacter pylori infection of the gallbladder with chronic cholecystitis/cholelithiasis.

Methods

We used PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library databases to identify all published studies before August 2017. Pooled odds ratios (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained using the random effects model. Heterogeneity, sensitivity, and stratified analyses were also performed.

Results

Eighteen studies involving 1544 participants and 1061 biliary cases with chronic cholecystitis/cholelithiasis were included. Helicobacter pylori infection of the gallbladder was significantly associated with an increased risk of chronic cholecystitis and cholecystitis (OR = 3.022; 95% CI, 1.897‐4.815; I2 = 20.1%). In addition, country‐based subgroup analysis also showed a positive association between Helicobacter pylori positivity and chronic cholecystitis/cholelithiasis risk. The ORs (95% CIs) for Asian and non‐Asian region studies were 3.75 (1.83‐7.71) and 2.25 (1.29‐3.89), respectively.

Conclusion

This meta‐analysis suggests that infection of the gallbladder with Helicobacter pylori is closely related to an increased risk of chronic cholecystitis and cholelithiasis.  相似文献

This study describes a non‐Helicobacter (H.) pylori Helicobacter (NHPH) infection in a pig veterinarian. The patient suffered from reflux esophagitis and general dyspeptic symptoms and was referred to the hospital for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Histologic examination of corpus and antrum biopsies revealed a chronic gastritis. Large spiral‐shaped non‐H. pylori helicobacters could be visualized and were identified as H. suis by PCR. The patient was treated with a triple therapy, consisting of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and pantoprazole for 10 days. Successful eradication was confirmed after a follow‐up gastrointestinal endoscopy and PCR 10 weeks after treatment. A mild chronic gastritis was, however, still observed at this point in time. This case report associates porcine H. suis strains with gastric disease in humans, thus emphasizing the zoonotic importance of H. suis bacteria from pigs.  相似文献

Background and Aims: Helicobacter pylori infection appears to be a protective factor for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). However, H. pylori is associated with the subtype of esophageal carcinoma, and long‐term proton‐pump inhibition usage would cause gastric atrophy in patients with persistent H. pylori infection, which is a precancerous lesion. The relationship between H. pylori infection and GERD is still unclear. We aimed to confirm whether the eradication of H. pylori would worsen or improve symptomatic or endoscopic GERD. Methods: A systematic review of the published data was undertaken, and a meta‐analysis was performed to determine the effect of H. pylori eradication on the occurrence of symptomatic (heartburn, acid regurgitation) and endoscopically proven erosive (esophagitis) GERD in patients with or without pre‐existing GERD. Results: A total of 11 articles met the inclusion criteria and thus were included in the meta‐analysis. There was no significant difference in the frequency of symptomatic or endoscopically proven erosive GERD after the eradication between patients with H. pylori eradicated and those with persistent infection, regardless of follow‐up period, location, or the baseline disease. Conclusion: H. pylori eradication does not aggravate the clinical outcomes in terms of short‐term and long‐term posteradication occurrence of GERD. There is no association between H. pylori eradication and the development of GERD in the patients with different diseases, even those with GERD.  相似文献

Aim: To date, cross‐sectional and case–control studies suggest an inverse association between Helicobacter pylori infection and atopic diseases, whereas the immunologic basis has not been studied yet. In this study we investigated T helper (Th) cell function in H. pylori‐infected children and compared cytokine responses in atopic and non‐atopic groups. Methods: The study groups was recruited from a cohort of 327 healthy children evaluated and followed‐up for 6 years to assess the natural history of H. pylori infection. Seventy‐four of 136 healthy children who underwent 13C urea breath test were eligible and accepted to participate. All participants were evaluated by a questionnaire, and skin‐prick testing. According to the results, children were divided into four groups with respect to the presence or absence of H. pylori and atopy. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from 34 of 74 children were cultured with H. pylori, Der p 1, and phytohemagglutinin (PHA). Interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ), interleukin (IL)‐4 and IL‐10, transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐β) levels were measured in supernatants. Results: The frequency of atopy was lower in H. pylori‐infected group (31.9% vs. 48.1, p = .22), while atopic symptoms were similar between infected and non‐infected children. While PHA and H. pylori induced IFN‐γ levels were significantly higher in H. pylori‐infected children, concomitant presence of both atopy and H. pylori decreased the level of PHA and H. pylori induced IFN‐γ production. PHA and Der p 1‐induced IL‐4 levels were higher in atopic children, and IL‐4 production was suppressed when they were concomitantly infected with H. pylori. The production of TGF‐β was found to be suppressed in atopic children irrespective of the presence of H. pylori infection. Conclusion: The results of the current study demonstrated a counteractive Th1 and Th2 cytokine interaction between H. pylori infection and atopy. However, this counteractive immunologic balance did not protect against atopy.  相似文献

Background

Helicobacter pylori has undergone considerable adaptation to allow chronic persistence within the gastric environment. While H. pylori‐associated diseases are driven by an excessive inflammation, severe gastritis is detrimental to colonization by this pathogen. Hence, H. pylori has developed strategies to minimize the severity of gastritis it triggers in its host. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is well known for its role in protecting against oxidative attack; less recognized is its ability to inhibit immunity, shown for SOD from mammalian sources and those of some bacterial species. This study examined whether H. pylori SOD (HpSOD) has the ability to inhibit the host immune response to these bacteria.

Materials and Methods

The ability of recombinant HpSOD to modify the response to LPS was measured using mouse macrophages. A monoclonal antibody against HpSOD was generated and injected into H. pylori‐infected mice.

Results

Addition of HpSOD to cultures of mouse macrophages significantly inhibited the pro‐inflammatory cytokine response to LPS stimulation. A monoclonal antibody was generated that was specific for SOD from H. pylori. When injected into mice infected with H. pylori for 3 months, this antibody was readily detected in both sera and gastric tissues 5 days later. While treatment with anti‐HpSOD had no effect on H. pylori colonization at this time point, it significantly increased the levels of a range of pro‐inflammatory cytokines in the gastric tissues. This did not occur with antibodies against other antioxidant enzymes.

Conclusions

SOD from H. pylori can inhibit the production of pro‐inflammatory cytokine during in vivo infection.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Ethnic differences in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its complications as well as racial variations in the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection are well documented. Nevertheless, the association between reflux disease, H. pylori, and race has not been adequately explored. AIMS: We estimated the strength of the association between H. pylori, ethnicity, and the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) spectrum, including Barrett's esophagus, in Asian patients presenting for endoscopy in a tertiary referral center. METHODS: Prospectively, we studied 188 consecutive patients with GERD, short- and long-segment Barrett's esophagus, and controls. All patients underwent gastroscopy with gastric biopsies to assess H. pylori, gastritis, and atrophy. CagA status and H. pylori infection were determined by immunoblot assay. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of H. pylori infection was 52.1% (of which 77.6% were cagA(+)) and was lowest in the long-segment Barrett's esophagus group (36.7%) (p = .048). When Barrett's esophagus was present, the length of abnormality was 44.8% shorter in the presence of H. pylori (p = .015). Indians had the highest prevalence of H. pylori (75%) and Malays the lowest (19.6%) (p < .001). In Indians, increased prevalence of H. pylori and cagA-positive strains was associated with reduced severity of GERD (p < .004 and p < .001, respectively), a trend not apparent in the other races. Corpus atrophy, which was almost exclusively associated with H. pylori, was highest in Indians as compared to the other races (p = .013). CONCLUSIONS: Presence of H. pylori was associated with a reduced severity of GERD spectrum disease in Asians, especially Indians. H. pylori infection may protect against complicated reflux disease via induction of corpus atrophy.  相似文献

Despite a decrease in the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection, it still poses a significant health burden worldwide. This review summarizes important pediatric studies on H pylori published from April 2018 to March 2019. Epidemiologic studies have reported different prevalences in different parts of the world and have mainly confirmed traditional risk factors. Several studies on pathophysiology attempted to identify risk markers in childhood for gastric cancer development later in life. One of the most interesting studies evaluated the relationship between eosinophilic esophagitis and H pylori infection; however, an inverse relationship was not confirmed. The high resistance of H pylori and, consequently, low eradication rates, is still a major concern and susceptibility testing before treatment has again been highlighted. Potassium‐competitive acid blockers are promising new acid‐suppressant drugs but their role in H pylori eradication schemes is still to be determined.  相似文献

Helicobacter felis belongs to the fastidious gastric non‐Helicobacter pylori helicobacter species that are typically found in the stomach of cats and dogs. These bacteria have the potential to colonize the human stomach and are then associated with gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers, and MALT lymphoma. Strains cultured from the human stomach are rare. Here, we present the first isolation of H. felis from a gastric biopsy specimen of a 14‐year‐old girl who presented with persistent epigastric pain. The strain was cultured using our routine protocol for H. pylori and identified by phylogenetic analyses of partial urease AB and gyrB gene sequences.  相似文献

Background

Our previous works have demonstrated that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection can alter histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation status in gastric epithelial cells. However, whether Helicobacter pylori‐induced histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation participates in gastric carcinogenesis is unknown. We investigate the expression of histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation in various stages of gastric disease and explore its clinical implication.

Materials and Methods

Stomach biopsy samples from 129 patients were collected and stained with histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation, Ki67, and Helicobacter pylori by immunohistochemistry staining, expressed as labeling index. They were categorized into nonatrophic gastritis, chronic atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, low‐grade intraepithelial neoplasia, high‐grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and intestinal‐type gastric cancer groups. Helicobacter pylori infection was determined by either 13C‐urea breath test or immunohistochemistry staining.

Results

In Helicobacter pylori‐negative patients, labeling index of histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation was gradually increased in nonatrophic gastritis, chronic atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia groups, peaked at low‐grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and declined in high‐grade intraepithelial neoplasia and gastric cancer groups. In Helicobacter pylori‐infected patients, labeling index of histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation followed the similar pattern as above, with increased expression over the corresponding Helicobacter pylori‐negative controls except in nonatrophic gastritis patient whose labeling index was decreased when compared with Helicobacter pylori‐negative control. Labeling index of Ki67 in Helicobacter pylori‐negative groups was higher in gastric cancer than chronic atrophic gastritis and low‐grade intraepithelial neoplasia groups, and higher in intestinal metaplasia group compared with chronic atrophic gastritis group. In Helicobacter pylori‐positive groups, Ki67 labeling index was increased stepwise from nonatrophic gastritis to gastric cancer except slightly decrease in chronic atrophic gastritis group. In addition, we noted that histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation staining is accompanied with its location changes from gastric gland bottom expanded to whole gland as disease stage progress.

Conclusions

These results indicate that stepwise gastric carcinogenesis is associated with altered histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation, Helicobacter pylori infection enhances histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation expression in these processes; it is also accompanied with histone H3 serine 10 phosphorylation location change from gland bottom staining expand to whole gland expression. The results suggest that epigenetic dysregulation may play important roles in Helicobacter pylori‐induced gastric cancer.  相似文献
