We have examined the prevalence of gene cagA and vacA alleles in 129 patients, 69 with gastritis and 60 with peptic ulcer diseases from North Brazil and their relation with histopathological data. vacA and cagA genotype were determined by polymerase chain reaction. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used for histological diagnosis. 96.6% of the patients were colonized by Helicobacter pylori strains...
Early detection of gastric cancers saves lives, but remains a diagnostic challenge. In this study, we aimed to identify cell-surface biomarkers of early gastric cancer. We hypothesized that a subset of plasma membrane proteins induced by the Helicobacter pylori oncoprotein CagA will be retained in early gastric cancers through non-oncogene addiction. An inducible system for expression of CagA w...
BACKGROUND The vacuolating cytotoxin and the cytotoxinassociated protein, encoded by vacA and cagA, respectively, are important virulence determinants of Helicobacter pylori. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to perform vacA genotyping and evaluate its association with cagA genotype and clinical outcome. METHODS One hundred and twenty H. pylori strains were isolated from dyspeptic patient...
Histone modifications are critical in regulating gene expression, cell cycle, cell proliferation, and development. Relatively few studies have investigated whether Helicobacter pylori, the major cause of human gastric diseases, affects histone modification. We therefore investigated the effects of H. pylori infection on histone modifications in a global and promoter-specific manner in gastric e...
A potential virulence determinant of Helicobacter pylori is the cagA gene product. To determine the relevance of the expression of CagA to the clinical picture and outcome of H. pylori infection in children, we examined 104 consecutive children diagnosed with H. pylori infection. Serum samples were collected to test for the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-CagA antibodies. Forty-five pat...
Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) increases stomach cancer risk. Helicobacter pylori strains with the cag pathogenicity island (PAI) induce more severe inflammation in the gastric epithelium and are more strongly associated with stomach cancer risk than strains lacking the PAI. We examined whether the prevalence of somatic p53 mutation in gastric adenocarcinoma differed between sub...
Attachment of Helicobacter pylori to gastric epithelial cells induces various cellular responses, including the tyrosine phosphorylation of an unknown 145-kD protein and interleukin 8 production. Here we show that this 145-kD protein is the cagA product of H. pylori, an immunodominant, cytotoxin-associated antigen. Epithelial cells infected with various H. pylori clinical isolates resulted in g...
BACKGROUND Studies in Western populations suggest that cagA, iceA, and vacA gene status in Helicobacter pylori isolates is associated with increased virulence and peptic ulcer disease. AIM To investigate the relationship between peptic ulcer and expression of Lewis (Le) antigens as well as cagA, iceA, and vacA in H pylori isolates in Singapore. METHODS Expression of Le antigens in H pylori ...
The varieties of infections caused by Helicobacter pylori may be due to differences in bacterial genotypes and virulence factors as well as environmental and host-related factors. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of cagA and vacA genes among H. pylori-infected patients in Iran and analyze their relevance to the disease status between two clinical groups via a meta-analysis method....
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection causes chronic gastric inflammation, peptic ulceration, and gastric carcinogenesis, in which H. pylori cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) plays major pathogenic action. Since transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and its signaling also are principally implicated in either modulating gastric mucosal inflammatory responses or causing carcinogenesis and are...
