Expression of the human cell surface glycoconjugates Lewis x and Lewis y by Helicobacter pylori isolates is related to cagA status.
Monoclonal antibodies were used in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of human Lewis immunodeterminants in the lipopolysaccharide of Helicobacter pylori. In 94 H. pylori isolates, expression of Lewis(x) (Le(x)) and Le(y) was a stable phenotypic marker independent of the growth medium and cell age; 46 (49%) of the isolates expressed both and 34 (36%) of the isolates expressed...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori does not require Lewis X or Lewis Y expression to colonize C3H/HeJ mice.
Helicobacter pylori strains frequently express Lewis X (Le(x)) and/or Le(y) on their cell surfaces as constituents of the O antigens of their lipopolysaccharide molecules. To assess the effect of Le(x) and Le(y) expression on the ability of H. pylori to colonize the mouse stomach and to adhere to epithelial cells, isogenic mutants were created in which fucT1 alone or fucT1 and fucT2, which enco...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori expresses a complex surface carbohydrate, Lewis X.
Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for Lewis X (Lex) reacted with whole cells of Helicobacter pylori NCTC11637, UA799, UA802, UA825, UA861, UA1182, and UA1206 in immunoelectron microscopy and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) experiments. These MAbs have documented specificity to Lex, whereas MAbs for Lea and Leb were negative in both immunoelectron microscopy and ELISA. H. pylori co...
متن کاملcagA and vacA status of Spanish Helicobacter pylori clinical isolates.
Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative rod associated with gastroduodenal pathologies, such as gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric adenocarcinoma. Although most H. pylori infections are clinically silent, the organism is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. It is unknown why the bacteria are able to produce severe disease in some hosts and be innocuous in others. Different viru...
متن کاملExpression of Lewis(x), sialylated Lewis(x), Lewis(a), and sialylated Lewis(a) antigens in human lung carcinoma.
One hundred and five cases of various human lung neoplasms were studied immunohistochemically using monoclonal antibodies recognizing the antigens, Le(x), sialylated Le(x) (SLEX), Le(a), and sialylated Le(a) (SLEA). Of the 92 lung cancers examined for antigen expression SLEX was detected in 57% (52 cases), Le(x) in 42% (39), SLEA in 36% (33), and Le(a) in 23% (21). None of these antigens were e...
