Reactive oxygen species activity, mucosal lipoperoxidation and glutathione in Helicobacter pylori-infected gastric mucosa

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Helicobacter pylori is considered as the major pathogen in Helicobacter pylori-associated gastroduodenal disease, but the mechanism of its action has not been fully explained. This study was performed to assess the reactive oxygen species activity and the damage in Helicobacter pylori-infected gastric mucosa. METHODS: Gastric biopsy specimens were obtained from 308 patients undergoing endoscopy. Gastric mucosal damage was assessed by using luminol enhanced chemiluminescence, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance, and mucosal glutathione. RESULTS: The chemiluminescence and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance-equivalent levels in the mucosa of patients with Helicobacter pylori-positive gastric mucosa (43.8 +/- 134.9 c.p.m./microg tissue, 157.0 +/- 96.2 nmol/g tissue, respectively) were significantly higher than in those with Helicobacter pylori-negative mucosa (6.8 +/- 20.3 c.p.m./microg tissue, 110.0 +/- 51.6 nmol/g tissue, respectively; P=0.000, P=0.016, respectively). The glutathione levels in the mucosa of patients with Helicobacter pylori-positive gastric mucosa (159.3 +/- 76.6 nmol/microg tissue) were significantly lower than in those with Helicobacter pylori-negative gastric mucosa (212.3 +/- 134.3 nmol/microg tissue; P=0.008). After the data were divided according to the presence of Helicobacter pylori, there were no significant differences in chemiluminescence, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance, and glutathione among the different macroscopic findings within Helicobacter pylori-positive and -negative gastric mucosa. CONCLUSIONS: Helicobacter pylori infection plays a pathological role in many gastrointestinal diseases through excessive mucosal-reactive oxygen species production, pronounced membrane damage, and the depletion of gastric anti-oxidants.     

Fluorescence diagnostics of Helicobacter pylori-infected human gastric mucosa: Establishing technique and validity

Objective. Bacterial factors, including strain type, anatomic distribution and density, and host responses are important determinants in the pathogenesis of erosive and neoplastic changes linked to gastric Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential use of photodiagnostics in mapping H. pylori infection. The relationship between fluorescence in individual gastric pits of H. pylori(+) and H. pylori(?) subjects versus that in larger field views of the gastric mucosa and the use of fluorescence to determine H. pylori status in different gastric areas were studied. Material and methods. Antrum, corpus and fundus biopsies from 8 H. pylori(+) and 4 H. pylori(?) subjects taken during two gastroscopies were used for autofluorescence (535 nm excitation) and aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX fluorescence (405 nm excitation) determinations. Results. In the antrum, corpus and fundus a close correlation between individual pit and full-field image (FFI) fluorescence was demonstrated for H. pylori status (R>0.85; R>0.75; R>0.80) and both excitation wavelengths (R>0.89; R>0.85; R>0.95), respectively. In the antrum, FFI in H. pylori(+) subjects exceeded that in H. pylori(?) subjects using 405 nm but not 535 nm excitation regardless of ALA treatment (p≤0.026). In the corpus and fundus, fluorescence using 405 nm excitation was greater in H. pylori(+) than in H. pylori(?) subjects only after ALA treatment (p<0.00005, p=0.03). The ratio of 535 nm:405 nm-excited fluorescence decreased from the fundus>corpus>antrum for both H. pylori(+) and H. pylori(?) subjects regardless of ALA treatment (p=0.03). Conclusions. Fluorescence-based identification of areas of H. pylori-infected gastric mucosa using 405 nm excitation combined with ALA treatment is feasible and, using a ratio of 535 nm:405 nm-excited fluorescence, it is possible to distinguish H. pylori status and the different areas of the stomach even without ALA.     

Kidney injury in infants and children with iron-deficiency anemia before and after iron treatment

Background: Our study aimed to investigate the effects of iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) on renal tubular functions before and after iron treatment for infants and children with IDA. We measured urinary levels of two kidney injury markers: neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP).

Material and methods: Thirty-six infants and children with IDA and 20 matched healthy controls were included. We assessed different laboratory parameters, estimated glomerular filtration rate, urinary levels of NGAL, and L-FABP. Urinary kidney injury markers were measured in IDA patients before and after 3 months of oral iron therapy.

Results: IDA patients had significantly higher urinary NGAL and L-FABP levels compared to their healthy controls. After 3 months of oral iron treatment, there was a significant improvement (decrease) in urinary NGAL and L-FABP in infants and children with IDA. Urinary markers returned to normal levels (healthy control levels) in children with IDA, but not for infants with IDA compared to their healthy controls.

Conclusion: Subclinical kidney injury was found in infants and children with IDA. This injury was completely reversible in older children with IDA and partially reversible in infants with IDA after iron therapy. Higher urinary levels of kidney injury molecules in IDA infants after iron treatment are suggestive of more sensitivity of these infants to oxidative stress caused by iron therapy or may be due to the immaturity of the kidney and more damage caused by IDA which may require more time to recover.     

Colonization by Helicobacter pylori and its relationship to histological changes in the gastric mucosa in portal hypertension

Abstract In order to investigate the relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection of the gastric mucosa and mucosal changes in portal hypertension, gastric fundic and antral biopsies were obtained from 66 patients with portal hypertension and 49 controls with non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD). Gastric mucosa from portal hypertensive patients exhibited typical vascular dilatation and congestion, while mild dilatation of lamina propria blood vessels was not uncommon in NUD patients with histological evidence of gastritis. Colonization of the gastric mucosa by H. pylori infection was significantly less in portal hyptertension (51.5%) compared to controls (75.5%; P <0.01). The difference was more apparent in patients with marked vascular dilatation (18.8% colonization) compared to patients with minimal vascular dilatation (66.7%). H. pylori infection was significantly associated with active superficial gastritis ( P <0.001), and with atrophic gastritis ( P <0.001), in both study groups. H. pylori -negative superficial gastritis was significantly more common in portal hypertension (25/66 patients) than in controls (7/49; P <0.05). H. pylori infection was not more common in patients who had undergone repeated sclerotherapy. The results suggest that the gastric mucosa of portal hypertension does not provide a hospitable environment for H. pylori colonization, particularly when mucosal congestion is marked. H. pylori infection does not add significantly to the gastropathy of portal hypertension.     

Iron deficiency anemia in Helicobacter pylori infection: meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Abstract

Background. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and iron deficiency anemia are prevalent in disadvantaged populations worldwide. The benefit of H. pylori eradiation for iron deficiency anemia has been extensively studied, but data are still equivocal. Methods. A search in The Cochrane Library, PUBMED, EMBASE, EBM Review databases, Science Citation Index Expanded, and CMB (Chinese Biomedical Literature Database) was performed. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing anti-H. pylori plus oral iron to oral iron alone for the iron deficiency patients in whom H. pylori was positive were selected for meta-analysis. Reviev Manager 5.0 software was used for the performance of meta-analysis. Results. Sixteen randomized controlled trials totaling 956 patients were included. The meta-analysis showed that the difference from baseline to endpoint of hemoglobin (Hb), serum iron (SI), and serum ferritin (SF) was statistically significantly different between anti-H. pylori treatment plus oral iron and oral iron alone (SMD, Hb 1.48; 95% CI, 0.96, 2.00; p < 0.00001; SI 1.15; 95% CI, 0.87, 1.43; p < 0.00001; SF 1.84; 95% CI, 1.20, 2.48; p < 0.00001, respectively). Conclusions. Our study suggests that treatment of H. pylori infection could be effective in improving anemia and iron statue in IDA patients infected by H. pylori, particularly in patients with moderate or severe anemia.

Effects of clarithromycin,omeprazole and leminoprazole on gastric ulcer healing in Helicobacter pylori-infected rats

Abstract We examined whether a single inoculation of Helicobacter pylori can colonize the stomachs of ulcerated rats and delay their healing and whether an antibiotic drug and acid pump inhibitors can enhance the ulcer healing in infected rats. Ulcers were produced by a submucosal injection of acetic acid solution into the gastric wall. Helicobacter pylori (ATCC-43504) was inoculated into rats with and without gastric ulcers. The animals were killed 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 weeks after the inoculation and the ulcerated area and H. pylori viability were determined. Each test drug and their combination was administered for 1 or 2 weeks after H. pylori inoculation. Helicobacter pylori could not colonize the stomachs of normal rats, but could colonize stomachs with ulcers for 10 weeks at an incidence of >80%. Spontaneous healing of gastric ulcers was delayed by H. pylori infection during these 10 weeks. Daily treatment with clarithromycin significantly and dose-dependently delayed ulcer healing in infected rats. Both omeprazole and leminoprazole significantly enhanced ulcer healing and inhibited the clarithromycin-delayed ulcer healing. We conclude that: (i) H. pylori can colonize rat stomachs with ulcers and delay ulcer healing; (ii) clarithromycin delays ulcer healing in H. pylori-infected rats; and (iii) acid pump inhibitors inhibited the clarithromycin-delayed ulcer healing.

Increased expression of tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 in Helicobacter pylori-infected gastric cancer

AIM:To explore the alteration of tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 protein expression in gastric cancer and to assess its prognostic values.METHODS:Three hundred and five consecutive cases of gastric cancer were enrolled into this study.SHP-2 expression was carried out in 305 gastric cancer specimens,of which 83 were paired adjacent normal gastric mucus samples,using a tissue microarray immunohistochemical method.Correlations were analyzed between expression levels of SHP-2 protein and tumor parameters or clinical outcomes.Serum anti-Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) immunoglobulin G was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate prognostic values by compassion of the expression levels of SHP-2 and disease-specific survivals in patients.RESULTS:SHP-2 staining was found diffuse mainly in the cytoplasm and the weak staining was also observed in the nucleus in gastric mucosa cells.Thirty-two point five percent of normal epithelial specimen and 62.6% of gastric cancer specimen were identified to stain with SHP-2 antibody positively(P < 0.001).Though SHP-2 staining intensities were stronger in the H.pylori(+) group than in the H.pylori(-) group,no statistically significant difference was found in the expression levels of SHP-2 between H.pylori(+) and H.pylori(-) gastric cancer(P = 0.40).The SHP-2 expression in gastric cancer was not significantly associated with cancer stages,lymph node metastases,and distant metastasis of the tumors(P = 0.34,P = 0.17,P = 0.52).Multivariate analysis demonstrated no correlation between SHP-2 expression and disease-free survival(P = 0.86).CONCLUSION:Increased expression of SHP-2 protein in gastric cancer specimen suggesting the aberrant upregulation of SHP-2 protein might play an important role in the gastric carcinogenesis.     

Prospective evaluation of gastrointestinal tract in patients with iron-deficiency anemia

Gastrointestinal bleeding is believed to cause iron-deficiency anemia (IDA). The information concerning ideal evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract and exact findings in patients with IDA is scant. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate patients with IDA for gastrointestinal lesions potentially causing IDA at a US Army Teaching Medical Center with Gastroenterology Fellowship. Seventy patients with IDA had esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and colonoscopy, and if this evaluation was unremarkable, then small bowel biopsy was obtained at EGD to evaluate for celiac disease. Enteroclysis was done if endoscopic evaluation was negative. At endoscopy, at least one lesion potentially accounted for the IDA in 50 (71%) patients. At colonoscopy, 21 (30%) patients had 22 lesions (four colon cancer, seven adenoma>1 cm, six vascular malformation, four severely bleeding hemorrhoids, one ileal Crohn's); at EGD, 39 (56%) patients had 43 lesions (11 gastric erosion, 10 esophagitis, four vascular malformation, four celiac disease, three gastric cancer, three gastric ulcer, three duodenal ulcer, two gastric polyp>1 cm, one duodenal lymphoma, one esophageal cancer, and one duodenal Crohn's). Twelve (17%) patients had both upper and lower gastrointestinal tract lesions. Twenty-four of 32 (75%) patients with positive fecal occult blood test had potentially bleeding lesions compared to 24 of 38 (63%) patients with negative fecal occult blood test (P>0.05). Six of nine patients with malignancy had positive fecal occult blood test. Twenty patients with normal endoscopy and small bowel biopsy had normal enteroclysis. It is concluded that the combination of colonoscopy and EGD identifies potential bleeding sources in most patients with IDA. In the absence of a potential bleeding lesion, small bowel biopsy at EGD is essential to diagnose celiac disease.The opinions and assertions contained herein are the private views of the authors and are not to be construed as reflecting the views of the Department of the Army or the Department of Defense.
