Trefoil factor 1 and gastrokine 2 inhibit Helicobacter pylori-induced proliferation and inflammation in gastric cardia and distal carcinogenesis.

ABSTRACT: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been associated with non-cardia adenocarcinoma in the stomach, while its role in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA) remains controversial. In addition, the association between H. pylori and the protective factors trefoil factor 1 (TFF1) and gastrokine 2 (GKN2) in gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas has not been fully investigated. Therefore, the mRNA and protein expression levels of TFF1 and GKN2 in GCA and distal gastric adenocarcinoma (DGA) were analyzed using quantitative PCR (qPCR) and immunohistochemistry, and the association with H. pylori infection was investigated. In addition, the effects of TFF1 and GKN2 overexpression on H. pylori-induced cells were investigated using western blot and reverse transcription-qPCR analysis. The comparative analysis of 16S rRNA-positive mRNA expression between GCA and DGA showed no statistically significant difference. However, the rate of the H. pylori vacuolating toxin A (VacA) genotype was significantly higher in GCA (49.2%) compared with that in DGA (26.9%; P<0.05). H. pylori infection downregulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of TFF1 and GKN2 in gastric tumor tissues, and the mRNA expression level of TFF1 and GKN2 was also markedly decreased in vitro. Furthermore, the cell proliferation varied in H. pylori total protein treatment group with the different doses. Notably, treatment with 20 µg/ml H. pylori total protein for 24 h resulted in the highest cellular proliferation rate. In addition, TFF1 and GKN2 overexpression inversely inhibited H. pylori-induced cell proliferation and upregulated NF-?B, tumor necrosis factor-?, IL-1?, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-6. The results of the present study indicate that H. pylori, particularly the VacA+ strain, plays an important role in GCA pathogenesis in high-risk areas of China, while TFF1/GKN2 inhibits H. pylori-induced cell proliferation and inflammation in GCA and DGA.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Gastric cancer results from a combination of Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) infection, exposure to dietary carcinogens, and predisposing genetic make-up. Because the role of these factors in gastric carcinogenesis cannot be determined readily in human beings, the present study examined the role of an oral carcinogen and H pylori infection in rhesus monkeys. METHODS: Gastroscopies were performed in 23 monkeys assigned to 4 groups: controls; nitrosating carcinogen ethyl-nitro-nitrosoguanidine administration alone; and inoculation of a virulent H pylori strain alone (H), or in combination with ethyl-nitro-nitrosoguanidine (EH). Follow-up gastroscopies and biopsies were performed at 3-month intervals for 5 years for pathologic and molecular studies. RESULTS: Postinoculation, H and EH groups showed persistent infection and antral gastritis. Starting at 2 and 5 years, respectively, gastric intestinal metaplasia and intraepithelial neoplasia developed in 3 EH monkeys but in no other groups. Transcriptional analysis of biopsies at 5 years revealed group-specific expression profiles, with striking changes in EH monkeys, plus a neoplasia-specific expression profile characterized by changes in multiple cancer-associated genes. Importantly, this neoplastic profile was evident in nonneoplastic mucosa, suggesting that the identified genes may represent markers preceding cancer. CONCLUSIONS: Gastric intraglandular neoplasia is induced in primates when H pylori infection is associated with consumption of a carcinogen similar to the nitrosaminesfound in pickled vegetables, suggesting that H pylori and the carcinogen synergistically induce gastric neoplasia in primates. Monkey arrays used for analysis of the affect of Helicobacter pylori and diet on development of gastric cancer. Each RNA was hybridized against a common reference.
