Helicobacter pylori induces AGS cell motility and elongation via independent signaling pathways.

چکیده
Helicobacter pylori induces motogenic and cytoskeletal responses in gastric epithelial cells. We demonstrate that these responses can be induced via independent signaling pathways that often occur in parallel. The cag pathogenicity island appears to be nonessential for induction of motility, whereas the elongation phenotype depends on translocation and phosphorylation of CagA.

The beta1 integrin activates JNK independent of CagA, and JNK activation is required for Helicobacter pylori CagA+-induced motility of gastric cancer cells.
The Helicobacter pylori CagA protein is translocated into gastric epithelial cells through a type IV secretion system (TFSS), and published studies suggest CagA is critical for H. pylori-associated carcinogenesis. CagA is thought to be necessary and sufficient to induce the motogenic response observed in response to CagA+ strains, as CagA interacts with proteins involved in adhesion and motilit...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori stimulates gastric epithelial cell MMP-1 secretion via CagA-dependent and -independent ERK activation.
Because the mechanisms of Helicobacter pylori-induced gastric injury are incompletely understood, we examined the hypothesis that H. pylori induces matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) secretion, with potential to disrupt gastric stroma. We further tested the role of CagA, an H. pylori virulence factor, in MMP-1 secretion. Co-incubation of AGS cells with Tx30a, an H. pylori strain lacking the cag...
متن کاملThe Effect of Helicobacter pylori on Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Induced Signal Transduction and the Preventive Effect of Celecoxib in Gastric Cancer Cells
BACKGROUND/AIMS Helicobacter pylori infection induces cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) overexpression, and these factors may engage in cross-talk. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of H. pylori on EGFR signaling pathways and to determine whether celecoxib has an inhibitory effect on this pathway. METHODS The AGS cell line was coculture...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of the cag pathogenicity island in Helicobacter pylori isolates from patients with gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer.
Helicobacter pylori is the causative agent of a variety of gastric diseases, but the clinical relevance of bacterial virulence factors is still controversial. Virulent strains carrying the cag pathogenicity island (cagPAI) are thought to be key players in disease development. Here, we have compared cagPAI-dependent in vitro responses in H. pylori isolates obtained from 75 patients with gastriti...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori induces gastric epithelial cell invasion in a c-Met and type IV secretion system-dependent manner.
Helicobacter pylori interacts with gastric epithelial cells, activating signaling pathways important for carcinogenesis. In this study we examined the role of H. pylori on cell invasion and the molecular mechanisms underlying this process. The relevance of H. pylori cag pathogenicity island-encoded type IV secretion system (T4SS), CagA, and VacA for cell invasion was also investigated. We found...
