Project description:1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) is a neurotoxin that can cause gastrointestinal ulcers by affecting dopamine levels. Therefore, MPTP has been considered a toxic substance that causes gastric ulcer disease in experimental animals. In this study, tree shrews were used as the animal model of gastric mucosa injury, and MPTP was intraperitoneally injected for 13 weeks, while tree shrews were not injected as the control group. Under the light microscope, local congestion or diffuse bleeding points of gastric mucosa and multiple redness and swelling bleeding symptoms on the inner wall were observed in the treatment group, as well as immune cell infiltration was found in HE staining, but no such phenomenon was observed in the control group. In order to explore the molecular basis of changes in MPTP induced gastric mucosa injury, the transcriptome and proteome data of gastric mucosa were analyzed. We observed significant differences in mRNA and protein expression levels under the influence of MPTP. The changes in mRNA and proteins are related to increased immune infiltration, cellular processes and angiogenesis. More differentially expressed genes play a role in immune function, especially the candidate genes RPL4 and ANXA1 with significant signal and core role. There are also differentially expressed genes that play a role in mucosal injury and shedding, especially candidate genes GAST and DDC with certain signaling and corresponding functions. Understanding the factors and molecular basis that affect the expression of related genes is crucial for coping with Emotionality gastric mucosa injury disease and developing new treatment methods to establish the ability to resist disease.

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation is implicated in the epigenetic field defect seen in gastric cancer (GC). Our aim in this study was to identify predictive biomarkers by screening for DNA methylation in noncancerous background gastric mucosa from GC patients. A total of 46 endoscopically obtained human gastric mucosa, 10 gastric cancer and 5 cell lines were analyzed using MCA microarray. Aberrant DNA methylation was compared with clinicopathological features. Healthy individuals were divided into two groups based on the types of chronic gastritis; A: antrum-predominant gastritis P or C: pangastritis or corpus-predominant gastritis

Project description:Sequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene, which has improved the characterization of microbial community, has made it possible to detect a low level Helicobacter pylori (HP) sequences even in HP-negative subjects which were determined by a combination of conventional methods. This study was conducted to obtain a cutoff value for HP colonization in gastric mucosa biopsies and gastric juices by the pyrosequencing method.

Project description:Gastric cancer is a heterogeneous disease. The molecular mechanism behind the development of gastric cancer and the different histological subtypes, are yet not completely clear. A better understanding of this may result in better prevention, early diagnosis and treatment strategies. In this study we analyzed gene expression in tumor, adjacent non-cancerous mucosa biopsies and in age/sex matched samples from healthy individuals.

Project description:Gastric Carcinoma is a very serious condition. Tumors are often not detected until late, and 5-year survival rates are 20%. Early diagnosis or prediction of gastric cancer is of outmost importance. Molecularly, those tumours are not well characterized. <br><br> Aim: by use of cDNA microarray to do a three-way comparison of gene expression patterns between tumour (T), flat (non-cancerous) mucosa (N) from stomachs with carcinoma, and normal mucosa in matched controls (K). Our first goal was to look at genes commonly differentially expressed between TvsN and TvsK (both criteria fulfilled) and NvsK. <br><br> Subjects and methods: We analyzed gene expression in tumor and flat mucosa biopsies from seven patients with gastric carcinoma and in age/sex matched samples from healthy individuals. Total RNA was extracted and samples (2 ug total RNA) were labeled for cDNA microarray analysis using Genisphere's 3DNA dendrimer kit. The gene expression patterns for 12759 genes were analyzed.

Project description:Background: Helicobacter pylori has been shown to alter the secretion of gastric hormones that modulate body fat deposition. Since cag-positive H. pylori strains interact intimately with the host gastric epithelial cells and trigger higher inflammation than cag-negative strains, we hypothesized that gastric colonization with H. pylori strains without functional cagA ameliorates obesity and its complications by modulating gastric gene expression and inflammation. Methodology/Principal Findings: To test this hypothesis we examined the effects of gastric colonization on metabolic and inflammatory markers in mice infected with two isogenic strains of H. pylori: 26695 strain 98-325 (cagA+ wild-type) and its cag pathogenicity island (cagPAI) mutant strain 99-305, a knockout made by inserting a chloramphenicol resistance cassette. Only the cagPAI mutant decreased fasting blood glucose levels, improved glucose tolerance and suppressed weight gain in db/db mice and mice with diet-induced obesity. These effects were associated with increased gastric leptin levels, suppressed infiltration of macrophages, enhanced influx of regulatory T cells (Treg) in adipose tissue and suppressed gastric inflammation. Gene set enrichment analyses of gastric mucosal samples identified six differentially modulated pathways, including the Hedgehog signaling pathway that is associated with control of cellular proliferation and gastric carcinogenesis as well as the insulin signaling pathway. Conclusions/Significance: Gastric colonization with cagPAI-negative strains of H. pylori ameliorate obesity and inflammation by modulating gastric gene expression, suggesting that cag-negative H. pylori strains might be beneficial in ameliorating obesity and its co-morbidities. Gastric mucosa from three groups of mice: uninfected, infected with H. pylori 26695 strain 98-325 (cagA+ wild-type) or infected with H. pylori mutant strain 99-305 (lacking cag pathogenicity island; cagA-)

Project description:Background & Aims: E-cadherin expression disruption is commonly observed in epithelial cancers and metastasis. Such event is also recognized as a crucial step in gastric cancer (GC) initiation and progression. As aberrant expression of microRNAs often perturb the normal expression and function of pivotal cancer-related genes, we characterized and dissected a pathway initiated by loss of microRNA-101 that causes E-cadherin dysfunction through upregulation of EZH2 expression in GC. Methods: Microarrays were used to profile the expression of microRNAs in human GC. Array-CGH revealed DNA copy number changes that were validated by genomic quantitative PCR and Snapshot. Expression levels of microRNAs, mRNA and protein were determined by quantitative-real time PCR and western-blot/co-immunofluorescence. CDH1 inactivating mechanisms were analyzed. Gain and loss of function experiments were done in KatoIII cells. E-cadherin functionality was assessed by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry. Results: MiR-101 expression was significantly decreased in tumors in comparison with normal gastric mucosas (P<.0001). In 65% of the analyzed GC cases, miR-101 downregulation was caused by deletions and/or microdeletions at miR-101-2 locus. EZH2 overexpression and consequent loss/aberrant E-cadherin expression was found in concomitance with miR-101 downregulation in 41% of the analyzed GC cases. This occurred preferentially in cases retaining allele(s) untargeted by classical CDH1 inactivating mechanisms. MiR-101 gain of function experiments or direct inhibition of EZH2, led to a strong depletion of endogenous EZH2 protein and consequent rescue of functional E-cadherin at the cell membrane, mimicking results obtained with clinical GC samples. Conclusions: Deletions and/or microdeletions at miR-101-2 locus underlying mature miR-101 downregulation and consequent EZH2 overexpression represented a novel cascade of genetic events leading to E-cadherin disruption, preferentially affecting the intestinal-type of GC. In the present study, 37 primary GCs and a pool of 10 normal gastric mucosas were used to acquire the expression of 703 known human mature miRNAs deposited in the Sanger miRBase Sequence Database, Release 10.0 (http://microrna.sanger.ac.uk), as well as 393 novel human miRNAs discovered through deep sequencing and validated by qRT-PCR and array profiling (NCodeM-bM-^DM-" Human miRNA microarray probe set V3 from Invitrogen). The 10 normal gastric mucosa RNA samples were pooled to obtain the normal gastric reference sample, which was labelled and hybridised four times to check arrays' reproducibility.
