genotyping of the helicobacter pylori caga gene isolated from gastric biopsies in shiraz, southern iran: a pcr-rflp and sequence analysis approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
conclusions using the pcr-rflp method, three distinctive h. pylori caga genotypes were detected in antral biopsies. genotype i, which was predominant among the isolates, was significantly associated with gastritis. however, the data showed that caga genotype iii may play a role in duodenitis and duodenal ulcers in patients infected with h. pylori. patients and methods a total of 161 gastric biopsies were collected from patients with stomach symptoms. after isolation of h. pylori from the biopsy culture, the caga gene was assessed using pcr. the pcr products were then digested by the hinfi restriction endonuclease enzyme. a sample of each genotype was also subjected to direct sequencing for further analysis. results from 161 antral biopsies, 61 (37.9%) were positive for h. pylori in culture. overall, 24 caga-positives were detected in the isolates. rflp indicated three different genotypes (i, ii, and iii) of caga with a frequency of 62.5%, 25%, and 12.5% among the isolates, respectively. genotypes i and ii of caga were predominant in patients who had gastritis. however, genotype iii was found in three patients with duodenitis and duodenal ulcers. alignment of the nucleotide sequences of the three isolated genotypes, with h. pylori 26695 as a reference strain, revealed 12 inserted nucleotides in genotype iii. when the sequence of genotype iii was aligned with 15 additional h. pylori strains available in genbank, the same inserted nucleotides were detected in six of them. background cytotoxin-associated gene a (caga) is an important virulence factor in the pathogenesis of helicobacter pylori. objectives the aim of this study was to genotype the h. pylori caga gene isolated from antral biopsies of patients with stomach symptoms, using a pcr-restriction fragment length polymorphism (pcr-rflp) analysis.

VacA and cagA genotypes of Helicobacter pylori isolated from raw meat in Isfahan province, Iran
Foods with animal origins play a substantial role in the transmission of Helicobacter pylori. The present investigation was carried out to study the vacA and cagA genotypes status of H. pylori isolated from various types of meat samples. Two hundred and twenty meat samples were collected and cultured. H. pylori-positive strains were analyzed for the ...
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...
متن کاملPCR and RFLP Analysis for Identification and Typing of Helicobacter pylori Strains from Gastric Biopsy Specimens
Helicobacter pylori is the causative agent of chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer diseases and is also a risk factor for gastric cancer. Since culture of Helicobacter pylori is relatively insensitive and cumbersome, PCR-based molecular detection and typing of this organism is gaining importance for strain differentiation. The aim of present study was to apply molecular methods for detection and ...

Background: Outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) is one of the important adhesins of H. pylori and a valuable candidate for vaccine development. Its gene is under "on-off" switch status which correlates with OipA protein expression. Objectives: We aimed to obtain a recombinant OipA clone (with "on" status) from an Iranian clinical isolate. Materials and Methods: A clinical H. pylori-isolate demo...
