چکیده
MICROBIOLOGY. For the article ‘‘A Mr 34,000 proinflammatory outer membrane protein (oipA) of Helicobacter pylori’’ by Yoshio Yamaoka, Dong H. Kwon, and David Y. Graham, which appeared in number 13, June, 20, 2000, of Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (97, 7533–7538), the authors note the following correction. The sequence of the HP0638 gene was incorrect as published. The sequence published was 59-GCTTCACGAGAAAACGCCTT-39 (reverse). The correct sequence is 59-AAGGCGTTTTCTGCTGAAGC-39 (reverse).

Cloning and Sequence Analysis of Gene Encoding OipA from Iranian Clinical Helicobacter pylori
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...
متن کاملThe role of outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) in vaccination of theC57BL/6 mouse model infected by Helicobacter pylori.
BACKGROUND/AIM Outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) is an important adhesin of Helicobacter pylori. Our goal was to assess the role of OipA in protection of C57BL/6 mice against H. pylori. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57BL/6 mice were mucosally immunized with recombinant OipA protein, OipA + propolis, propolis, and phosphate-buffered saline. After vaccination, anti-OipA IgA was measured. Mice were c...
متن کاملRelevance of Helicobacter pylori dupA and OipA genotypes and development of gastric disease
Helicobacter pylori infection is now accepted as the major cause of severe gastritis-associated diseases, including peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. In the current study, we decided to determine the dupA and OipA genotypes in H. pylori strains isolated from patients with gastrointestinal disorders and to evaluate whether these genes are associated with the severity of the gastroduodenal disease...
متن کاملRegulation of RANTES promoter activation in gastric epithelial cells infected with Helicobacter pylori.
RANTES, a CC chemokine, plays an important role in the inflammatory response associated with Helicobacter pylori infection. However, the mechanism by which H. pylori induces RANTES expression in the gastric mucosa is unknown. We cocultured gastric epithelial cells with wild-type H. pylori, isogenic oipA mutants, cag pathogenicity island (PAI) mutants, or double knockout mutants. Reverse transcr...
متن کاملDesign, cloning and expression assay of oipA gene in a bicistronic vector harboring mice IL-18 gene: potential implications for Helicobacter pylori vaccine investigations
Introduction: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has remained as a global health problem. Animal studies demonstrated the role of H. pylori oipA gene in the development of gastric cancer. The aim of this study was the cloning and expression of Helicobacter pylori oipA gene in a bicistronic vector harboring mice IL-18 gene. Materials and methods: The target gene encoding oipA was amp...
متن کاملThe study of the oipA and dupA genes in Helicobacter pylori strains and their relationship with different gastroduodenal diseases
AIM The purpose of this investigation was to determine the oipA and dupA genes of Helicobacter pylori isolates from west of Iran; Chaharmahalo Bakhtiyari region and find their relationship with the severity of the gastroduodenal diseases. BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori is an organism responsible for many gastroduodenal diseases. Many studies suggest that genetic diversity in H . pylori virule...
