Serum Helicobacter pylori NapA antibody as a potential biomarker for gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is strongly associated with gastric cancer. However, only a minority of infected individuals ever develop gastric cancer. This risk stratification may be in part due to differences among strains. The relationship between neutrophil-activating protein (NapA) and gastric cancer is unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the significance of NapA as a biomarker in gastric cancer. We used enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to determine the status of H. pylori infection. Indirect ELISA method was used for detection of NapA antibody titer in the serum of H. pylori infected individuals. Unconditional logistic regressions were adopted to analyze the variables and determine the association of NapA and gastric cancer. The results of study indicated serum H. pylori NapA antibody level were associated with a reduced risk for development of gastric cancer. It may be used in conjugation with other indicators for gastric cancer detection.

Project description: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 related targets in AST and GC were obtained from the public database GeneCards. The ingredients of CR were obtained from the public database Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology (TCMSP). The network pharmacology including gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis, and molecular docking were utilized. Protein-protein interaction was constructed to analyze the functional link of target genes. The molecular docking was employed to study the potential effects of active ingredients from CR on key target genes. Result: The top 10 key targets of HPI for AST were CXCL9, CX3CL1, CCL20, CCL4, PF4, CCL27, C5AR1, PPBP, KNG1, and ADORA1. The GO biological process involved mainly leukocyte migration, which responded to bacterium. The (R)-canadine and quercetin were selected from C. chinensis, which were employed to explore if they inhibited the HPI synchronously and protect against AST. The targets of (R)-canadine were SLC6A4 and OPRM1. For ingredient quercetin, the targets were AKR1B1 and VCAM1. Conclusion: CXCL9 and VCAM1 were the common targets of AST and HPI, which might be one of the imported targets of HPI for AST. Quercetin could be an effective ingredient to suppress HPI and help prevent AST.
