Helicobacter pylori: an invading microorganism? A review 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In this review we evaluate the pros and cons of Helicobacter pylori invasion of epithelial cells as part of the natural history of H. pylori infection. H. pylori is generally considered an extracellular microorganism. However, a growing body of evidence supports the controversial hypothesis that at least a subset of H. pylori microorganisms has an intracellular (intraepithelial) location. Most significant is the fact that H. pylori invades cultured epithelial cells with invasion frequencies similar to Yersinia enterocolitica and better than Shigella flexneri; furthermore, studies of invasion mechanisms suggest that H. pylori invasion of and survival within epithelial cells is not merely a passive event, but requires active participation of the microorganism. Although many studies of human gastric biopsy specimens have failed to demonstrate any intracellular H. pylori, some studies have revealed a minor fraction of H. pylori inside gastric epithelial cells, with possible linkage to peptic ulceration and epithelial cell damage. In conclusion, these data encourage further research to establish whether intracellular H. pylori does play a role in H. pylori colonization of the human stomach and in peptic ulcer pathogenesis. 相似文献

Almost half the world's population is infected by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). This bacterium increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) in human stomach, and this has been reported to impact upon gastric inflammation and carcinogenesis. However, the precise mechanism by which H. pylori induces gastric carcinogenesis is presently unclear. Although the main source of ROS/RNS production is possibly the host neutrophil, H. pylori itself produces O???. Furthermore, its cytotoxin induces ROS production by gastric epithelial cells, which might affect intracellular signal transduction, resulting in gastric carcinogenesis. Excessive ROS production in gastric epithelial cells can cause DNA damage and thus might be involved in gastric carcinogenesis. Understanding the molecular mechanism of H. pylori-induced carcinogenesis is important for developing new strategies against gastric cancer. 相似文献

Invasiveness of Helicobacter pylori into Human Gastric Mucosa 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Gyung Hyuck Ko Soo Min Kang You Kyung Kim Jeong Hee Lee Cheol Keun Park Hee Shang Youn Seung Chul Baik Myung Je Cho Woo Kon Lee Kwang Ho Rhee 《Helicobacter》1999,4(2):77-81
Background. Helicobacter pylori has generally been observed only in the gastric mucous layer or in the spaces between gastric mucus -s ecreting cells and not in the gastric epithelial cells or in the lamina propria. The purpose of this study is to determine whether H. pylori invades the gastric mucosa, using an immunoelectron microscopical examination of human gastric mucosa infected with H. pylori.
Materials and Methods. Five hundred gastric antral biopsy specimens were fixed in a periodate-lysin-paraformaldehyde solution, embedded in Lowicryl, sectioned, and examined with a light microscope. One hundred specimens moderately or severely infected with H. pylori were selected and were incubated with polyclonal rabbit anti– H. pylori antibody. The specimens were washed, incubated with 20 nm of colloidal gold–conjugated goat anti–rabbit IgG, stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and observed with a transmission electron microscope.
Results. In one case, a bacterium was observed within the cytoplasm of a gastric mucus -s ecreting cell; in another case, a few bacteria were observed within the cytoplasm of a stromal cell in the lamina propria. The bacteria could be differentiated from degenerated intracellular organelles by gold particles attached to the bacteria.
Conclusion. H. pylori rarely invade the lamina propria and gastric cells. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori gastritis: a Th1 mediated disease? 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Helicobacter pylori is now considered to be the main cause for most stomach diseases including ulcer, MALT lymphoma, adenocarcinoma and gastritis. The infection with this bacterium is chronic despite a local and systemic immune response towards it. Among the cellular infiltrate that arises during H. pylori-mediated gastritis, there is a considerable frequency of CD4+ Th1 cells producing IFNgamma, but not of Th2 cells producing IL-4. Since IFNgamma may induce binding of H. pylori to gastric epithelial cells followed by apoptosis of these cells, one may speculate that H. pylori-mediated diseases are in part autoimmune diseases initiated by H. pylori-specific Th1 cells infiltrating the gastric mucosa. Recent support for this hypothesis comes from an animal model in which mice are infected with H. pylori and display strongly reduced gastritis in the absence of IFNgamma. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori enter and survive within multivesicular vacuoles of epithelial cells 总被引:9,自引:4,他引:5
Although intracellular Helicobacter pylori have been described in biopsy specimens and in cultured epithelial cells, the fate of these bacteria is unknown. Using differential interference contrast (DIC) video and immunofluorescence microscopy, we document that a proportion of cell-associated H. pylori enter large cytoplasmic vacuoles, where they remain viable and motile and can survive lethal concentrations of extracellular gentamicin. Entry into vacuoles occurs in multiple epithelial cell lines including AGS gastric adenocarcinoma, Caco-2 colon adenocarcinoma and MDCK kidney cell line, and depends on the actin cytoskeleton. Time-lapse microscopy over several hours was used to follow the movement of live H. pylori within vacuoles of a single cell. Pulsed, extracellular gentamicin treatments show that the half-life of intravacuolar bacteria is on the order of 24 h. Viable H. pylori repopulate the extracellular environment in parallel with the disappearance of intravacuolar bacteria, suggesting release from the intravacuolar niche. Using electron microscopy and live fluorescent staining with endosomal dyes, we observe that H. pylori-containing vacuoles are similar in morphology to late endosomal multivesicular bodies. VacA is not required for these events, as isogenic vacA- mutants still enter and survive within the intravacuolar niche. The exploitation of an intravacuolar niche is a new aspect of the biological life cycle of H. pylori that could explain the difficulties in eradicating this infection. 相似文献

Role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric carcinogenesis: the origin of gastric cancers and heterotopic proliferative glands in Mongolian gerbils 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Helicobacter pylori infection is well accepted to be a very important factor for the development of gastric carcinogenesis in the human stomach. In Mongolian gerbils treated with chemical carcinogens, H. pylori infection enhances glandular stomach carcinogenesis, and eradication of infection and results in curtailment of enhancing effects, particularly at early stages of associated inflammation. A high-salt diet exacerbates the effects of H. pylori infection on gastric carcinogenesis, and these two factors act synergistically to promote the development of gastric cancers in this animal model. However, the bacterium exerts the greater effects. Early acquisition significantly increases gastric chemical carcinogenesis in Mongolian gerbils, as compared to later infection. While heterotopic proliferative glands, hyperplastic and dilated glands localized beneath the muscularis mucosae, frequently develop with H. pylori infection alone in this animal model, they obviously regress on eradication, suggesting a relation to severe gastritis, rather than a malignant character. Furthermore, endocrine cells, positive for chromogranin A, are observed in the heterotopic proliferative glands, in contrast to cancerous lesions which lack endocrine elements. In conclusion, H. pylori is not an initiator, but rather a strong promoter of gastric carcinogenesis, whose eradication, together with reduction in salt intake, might effectively prevent gastric cancer development. 相似文献

Asparaginase was purified from Helicobacter pylori 26695 and its pathophysiological role explored. The K(m) value of asparagine was 9.75 ± 1.81 μM at pH 7.0, and the optimum pH range was broad and around a neutral pH. H. pylori asparaginase converted extracellular asparagine to aspartate. H. pylori cells were unable to take up extracellular asparagine directly. Instead, aspartate produced by the action of the asparaginase was transported into H. pylori cells, where it was partially converted to β-alanine. Asparaginase exhibited striking cytotoxic activity against histiocytic lymphoma cell line U937 cells via asparagine deprivation. The cytotoxic activity of live H. pylori cells against U937 cells was significantly diminished by deletion of the asparaginase gene, indicating that asparaginase functions as a cytotoxic agent of the bacterium. The cytotoxic effect was negligible for gastric epithelial cell line AGS cells, suggesting that the effect differs across host cell types. An asparaginase-deficient mutant strain was significantly less capable of colonizing Mongolian gerbils. Since asparagine depletion by exogenous asparaginase has been shown to suppress lymphocyte proliferation in vivo, the present results suggest that H. pylori asparaginase may be involved in inhibition of normal lymphocyte function at the gastric niche, allowing H. pylori to evade the host immune system. 相似文献

Since the historical rediscovery of gastric spiral Helicobacter pylori in the gastric mucosa of patients with chronic gastritis by Warren and Marshall in 1983, peptic ulcer disease has been largely viewed as being of infectious aetiology. Indeed, there is a strong association between the presence of H. pylori and chronic active gastritis in histology. The bacterium can be isolated in not less than 70% of gastric and in over 90% of duodenal ulcer patients. Eradication of the organism has been associated with histologic improvement of gastritis, lower relapse rate and less risk of bleeding from duodenal ulcer. The bacterium possesses several virulence factors enabling it to survive the strong acid milieu inside the stomach and possibly damaging host tissues. The sequence of events by which the bacterium might cause gastric or duodenal ulcer is still not fully elucidated and Koch's postulates have never been fulfilled. In the majority of individuals, H. pylori infection is largely or entirely asymptomatic and there is no convincing data to suggest an increase in the prevalence of peptic ulcer disease among these subjects. An increasingly growing body of literature suggests an association between colonization by H. pylori in the stomach and a risk for developing gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), MALT lymphoma, gastric adenocarcinoma and even pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The bacterium has been implicated also in a number of extra-gastrointestinal disorders such as ischaemic heart disease, ischaemic cerebrovascular disease, atherosclerosis, and skin diseases such as rosacea, but a causal role for the bacterium is missing. Eradication of H. pylori thus seems to be a beneficial impact on human health. Various drug regimens are in use to eradicate H. pylori involving the administration of three or four drugs including bismuth compounds, metronidazole, clarithromycin, tetracyclines, amoxycillin, ranitidine, omeprazole for 1-2 weeks. The financial burden, side effects and emergence of drug resistant strains due to an increase in the use in antibiotics for H. pylori eradication therapy need further reconsideration. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human gastric epithelium and induces an inflammatory response that is a trigger for gastric carcinogenesis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have recently been shown to be up-regulated in gastric epithelial cells infected with H. pylori and might contribute to the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer. The aim of this study was to extend the knowledge about the effect of H. pylori infection on MMP-1 expression by gastric epithelial cells, the kinetics of induction, the pathogenetic properties of the bacterium, and the intracellular signaling pathways required for MMP-1 up-regulation. Expression of MMP-1 was induced more than 10-fold by co-culture of AGS+cells with H. pylori strains carrying the pathogenicity island (PAI). H. pylori strains with mutations in the PAI and a defective type IV secretion system had no effect on MMP-1. Double immunofluorescence revealed strong MMP-1 staining in epithelial cells of gastric biopsies at sites of bacterial attachment. In vitro, MMP-1 is up-regulated by interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, but these regulatory mechanisms are not operating in H. pylori infection as shown by inhibitory antibodies. Specific inhibitors of JNK kinase and ERK1/2 kinase were found to suppress the H. pylori-induced MMP-1 expression and activity. AGS cells treated with antisense MMP-1 showed a significantly reduced potential to degrade reconstituted basement membrane. Our results suggest that in gastric epithelial cells, H. pylori up-regulates MMP-1 in a type IV secretion system-dependent manner via JNK and ERK1/2. Induction of MMP-1 is further implicated in complex processes induced by H. pylori, resulting in tissue degradation and remodeling of the gastric mucosa. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative bacterium that causes gastric and duodenal diseases in humans. Despite a robust antibody and cellular immune response, H. pylori infection persists chronically. To understand if and how H. pylori could modulate T cell activation, in the present study we investigated in vitro the interaction between H. pylori and human T lymphocytes freshly isolated from peripheral blood of H. pylori-negative donors. A direct interaction of live, but not killed bacteria with purified CD3+ T lymphocytes was observed by microscopy and confirmed by flow cytometry. Live H. pylori activated CD3+ T lymphocytes and predominantly γδ+ T cells bearing the TCR chain Vδ2. Upon interaction with H. pylori, these cells up-regulated the activation molecule CD69 and produced cytokines (such as TNFα, IFNγ) and chemokines (such as MIP-1β, RANTES) in a non-antigen-specific manner. This activation required viable H. pylori and was not exhibited by other gram-negative bacteria. The cytotoxin-associated antigen-A (CagA), was at least partially responsible of this activation. Our results suggest that H. pylori can directly interact with T cells and modulate the response of γδ+ T cells, thereby favouring an inflammatory environment which can contribute to the chronic persistence of the bacteria and eventually to the gastric pathology. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori arginase inhibits T cell proliferation and reduces the expression of the TCR zeta-chain (CD3zeta) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Helicobacter pylori infects approximately half the human population. The outcomes of the infection range from gastritis to gastric cancer and appear to be associated with the immunity to H. pylori. Patients developing nonatrophic gastritis present a Th1 response without developing protective immunity, suggesting that this bacterium may have mechanisms to evade the immune response of the host. Several H. pylori proteins can impair macrophage and T cell function in vitro through mechanisms that are poorly understood. We tested the effect of H. pylori extracts and live H. pylori on Jurkat cells and freshly isolated human normal T lymphocytes to identify possible mechanisms by which the bacteria might impair T cell function. Jurkat cells or activated T lymphocytes cultured with an H. pylori sonicate had a reduced proliferation that was not caused by T cell apoptosis or impairment in the early T cell signaling events. Instead, both the H. pylori sonicate and live H. pylori induced a decreased expression of the CD3zeta-chain of the TCR. Coculture of live H. pylori with T cells demonstrated that the wild-type strain, but not the arginase mutant rocF(-), depleted L-arginine and caused a decrease in CD3zeta expression. Furthermore, arginase inhibitors reversed these events. These results suggest that H. pylori arginase is not only important for urea production, but may also impair T cell function during infection. 相似文献

Individuals infected with Helicobacter pylori , a stomach colonizing bacteria, have an increased risk of developing gastric malignancies. The risk for developing cancer relates to the physiologic and histologic changes that H. pylori infection induces in the stomach. In the last year numerous studies have been conducted in order to characterize the association between H. pylori infection and gastric cancer. These studies range from epidemiologic approaches aiming at the identification of environmental, host genetic, and bacterial factors associated with risk of gastric cancer, to molecular and cell biology approaches aiming at understanding the interaction between H. pylori and the transforming epithelial cell. In this review an account of the last year's research activity on the relationship between H. pylori and gastric cancer will be given. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori is a human gastric pathogen that survives the strong acidity of the stomach by virtue of its urease activity. This activity produces ammonia, which neutralizes the bacterial microenvironment. UreI, an inner membrane protein, is essential for resistance to low pH and for the gastric colonization of mice by H. pylori. In the heterologous Xenopus oocytes expression system, UreI behaves like an H+-gated urea channel, and His-123 was found to be important for low pH activation. We investigated the role of UreI directly in H. pylori and showed that, in the presence of urea, strains expressing wild-type UreI displayed very rapid stimulation of extracellular ammonia production upon exposure to pH = 5. This response was not observed when acetamide was used as a source of ammonia; therefore, it is specific for urea hydrolysis. To identify residues critical for UreI activity or activation, we constructed H. pylori strains carrying individual chromosomal mutations of UreI (i) in the four conserved histidine residues (H71, H123, H131, H193) and (ii) in a conserved region of the third intracellular loop (L165, G166, K167, F168). The distal H193 (and not H123) was found to be crucial for stimulating the production of ammonia at low pH; a single mutation in this residue uncoupled the UreI activity from its acid activation. The third intracellular loop of UreI was shown to be important for UreI activity. Thus, in H. pylori, UreI is necessary for the adaptation of urease activity to the extracellular pH. UreI behaves like a novel type of urea transporter, and the identification of residues essential for its function in H. pylori provides new insight into the unusual molecular mechanism of low pH activation. 相似文献

幽门螺杆菌(Helicobacter pylori,H. pylori)是一种革兰阴性杆菌,于1893年首次从慢性活动性胃炎患者的胃黏膜活检组织中被成功分离培养,是目前所知的少数能够在人胃中生存的微生物之一。H. pylori感染不仅可引起胃炎、消化道溃疡、胃黏膜组织相关性(MALT)淋巴瘤等消化系统疾病,其所携带的毒力因子还与胃癌的发生发展有关。不同基因型的H. pylori所携带的毒力因子不同,但只有小部分的感染个体会进展为胃癌的现象。虽然目前诸如CagA、VacA、BabA和OipA等许多毒力因子都已被证明与胃癌的发生有确切关系,但其具体机制仍在进一步的研究当中。本文将主要针对H. pylori中与胃癌相关的毒力因子及其致癌机制进行简要综述,以进一步明确其在胃癌发生发展中的生物学作用。 相似文献
