Project description:Promoter hypermethylation occurs in human gastric cancers, but whether the deregulated genes contribute to the multi-step Helicobacter pylori (H pylori)-induced gastric carcinogenesis remains unclear. We used Microarray-based Methylation Assessment of Single Samples (MMASS) to identify differential methylated genes in 10 human gastric cancer tissues.
Project description:Helicobacter pylori has a very plastic genome, reflecting its high rate of recombination and point mutation. This plasticity promotes divergence of the population by the development of subclones and presumably enhances adaptation to host niches. We have investigated the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of two such subclones isolated from one patient as well as the genetic evolution of these isolates during experimental infection. Whole-genome genotyping of the isolates using DNA microarrays revealed that they were more similar to each other than to a panel of other genotyped strains recovered from different hosts. Nonetheless, they still showed significant differences. The genomic evolution of both isolates during the infection of conventionally raised and germ-free mice was monitored over the course of 3 months. The Cag PAI-positive isolate was also surveyed after a 10 month colonization of conventionally raised transgenic animals (n = 9 mice). Microarray analysis of the Cag PAI and sequence analysis of the cagA, recA, and 16S rRNA genes disclosed no changes in recovered isolates. Together, these results reveal that the H. pylori population infecting one individual can undergo significant divergence, creating stable subclones with substantial genotypic and phenotypic differences. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Computed

Project description:Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been investigated as a potential risk factor for extragastric diseases, including metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MASLD). However, the details of the underlying mechanisms remain inadequately understood. In this study, we elucidate that H. pylori infection exacerbates hepatic metabolic disorders both in vitro and in vivo, manifesting as increased lipid deposition and insulin resistance. Mechanistically, H. pylori infection further upregulates m6A content, particularly increasing the expression of one of the m6A methyltransferases, WTAP.
Project description:Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a human pathogen that infects almost half of the world’s population. Infection with H. pylori is frequently associated with chronic gastritis and can even lead to gastric and duodenal ulcers and gastric cancer. Although the persistent colonization of H. pylori and the development of H. pylori-associated gastritis remain poorly understood, it is believed that, in gastric mucosa, the modulated gastric epithelial cells (GECs) by H. pylori are key contributors. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in Helicobacter pylori infected-gastric epithelial cell line AGS cells and identified up-regulated genes induced by Helicobacter pylori infection.

Project description:Study on Multidrug Resistance of Helicobacter pylori
Project description:Helicobacter pylori causes chronic gastritis and avoids elimination by the immune system of the infected host. The commensal bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus has been reported to exert beneficial effects as a supplement during H. pylori eradication therapy. In the present study, we applied whole genome microarray analysis to compare the immune response induced in murine bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) stimulated with L. acidophilus, H. pylori, or with both bacteria in combination Microarray expression profiling was performed to analyze stimulation of bone marrow derived macrophages with Helicobacter pylori 251, Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM or Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM co-stimulated with Helicobacter pylori 251 were analyzed 5 hours after infection.

We used Microarray-based Methylation Assessment of Single Samples (MMASS) to identify differential methylated genes in 10 human gastric cancer tissues. Two-condition experiment, gastric cancers from patients (n = 5 per group) who survived 5 years or more (long-term survivors group) and who died of disease prior to 5 years (short-term survivors group)
