Analysis of KRAS gene mutation associated with Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with gastric cancer
Objective(s): KRAS proto-oncogene mutation can be considered a diagnostic factor for treating various malignancies. Helicobacter pylori infection, a risk factor for stomach cancer, may cause DNA damage and genetic changes. The aim of the current study was to assess the association of gastric cancer and KRAS mutation, demographic factors, and H. pylori infection.<...
متن کاملPresence of cagA Gene in Patients with Gastric Cancer and Gastritis with Helicobacter pylori Infection
Background and purpose: Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative, micro-aerophilic, and spiral-shaped bacillus. Infection with this bacterium can lead to gastritis, ulcers, and even gastric cancer. This study was conducted to evaluate the presence of the cagA gene among patients with gastritis and gastric cancer. Materials and methods: This study was performed in patients with gastritis (n=40) a...

Methods: In a descriptive cross-sectional study, the variables of sex, age, education, occupation and active H...
متن کاملRole of autophagy associated with Helicobacter pylori CagA and VacA toxins in gastric cancer
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium that has been introduced as a cause of mucosal inflammation and gastric cancer. The most important pathogenic factors are VacA and CagA, which are associated with increased disease severity in clinical strains. Autophagy is a protected lysosomal degradation pathway degrading cytoplasmic content and is important in host...
متن کاملImpact of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase C677T Polymorphism on the Risk of Gastric Cancer and Its Interaction with Helicobacter pylori Infection
Background: Attempts for early detection of gastric cancer have recently focused on host's genetic susceptibility factors and gene-environment interactions. We have, herein, studied the association of MTHFR C677T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and its interaction with Helicobacter pylori infection, smoking, age and gender on the risk of gastric cancer among an Iranian population. Methods:...
