Potential Association Between Asthma, Helicobacter pylori Infection, and Gastric Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection (HPI) is still high around the world, which induces gastric diseases, such as gastric cancer (GC). The epidemiological investigation showed that there was an association between HPI and asthma (AST). Coptidis rhizoma (CR) has been reported as an herbal medicine with anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effects. Purpose: The present study was aimed to investigate the protective mechanism of HPI on AST and its adverse effects on the development of GC. Coptis chinensis was used to neutralize the damage of HPI in GC and to hopefully intensify certain protective pathways for AST. Method: The information about HPI was obtained from the public database Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD). The rela
