Fermented kimchi rejuvenated precancerous atrophic gastritis via mitigating Helicobacter pylori-associated endoplasmic reticulum and oxidative stress.

ABSTRACT: Dietary intervention to prevent Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-gastric cancer might be ideal by long-term intervention, rejuvenating action, and no risk of bacterial resistance. Stimulated with finding that kimchi prevented H. pylori-gastric cancer, we compared the efficacy of cancer preventive kimchi (cpkimchi) and standard recipe kimchi (skimchi) and the efficacy between fermented kimchi and non-fermented kimchi (kimuchi) in H. pylori-initiated gastric cancer model and explored novel mechanisms hinted from RNAseq transcriptome analysis. Animal models assessing gastric pathology on 24 and 36 weeks after H. pylori initiated, salt diet-promoted gastric mutagenesis model showed fermented cpkimchi afforded the best outcome of either rejuvenating atrophic gastritis or inhibiting tumorigenesis compared to skimchi and kimuchi. Highest inhibition of atrophic gastritis was achieved with cpkimchi, while significantly lower in kimuchi. Transcriptomic analysis showed ameliorated-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, -oxidative stress, and -apoptosis as major rejuvenating action of cpkimchi. Homogenates from animal model showed that elevated expressions of p-PERK, IRE, ATF6, p-elf, and XBP1 in control group, while significantly decreased with dietary intake of only cpkimchi. Significantly increased expressions of HO-1 and γ-GCS were only noted with cpkimchi. Conclusively, long-term dietary intervention of fermented cpkimchi can be potential way preventing H. pylori-associated carcinogenesis via rejuvenation of atrophic gastritis.

Project description:Helicobacter pylori colonization of the human stomach is a strong risk factor for gastric cancer. To investigate H. pylori-induced gastric molecular alterations, we used a Mongolian gerbil model of gastric carcinogenesis. Histologic evaluation revealed varying levels of atrophic gastritis (a premalignant condition characterized by parietal and chief cell loss) in H. pylori-infected animals, and transcriptional profiling revealed a loss of markers for these cell types. We then assessed the spatial distribution and relative abundance of proteins in the gastric tissues using imaging mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. We detected striking differences in the protein content of corpus and antrum tissues. Four hundred ninety-two proteins were preferentially localized to the corpus in uninfected animals. The abundance of 91 of these proteins was reduced in H. pylori-infected corpus tissues exhibiting atrophic gastritis compared with infected corpus tissues exhibiting non-atrophic gastritis or uninfected corpus tissues; these included numerous proteins with metabolic functions. Fifty proteins localized to the corpus in uninfected animals were diffusely delocalized throughout the stomach in infected tissues with atrophic gastritis; these included numerous proteins with roles in protein processing. The corresponding alterations were not detected in animals infected with a H. pylori ∆cagT mutant (lacking Cag type IV secretion system activity). These results indicate that H. pylori can cause loss of proteins normally localized to the gastric corpus as well as diffuse delocalization of corpus-specific proteins, resulting in marked changes in the normal gastric molecular partitioning into distinct corpus and antrum regions.IMPORTANCEA normal stomach is organized into distinct regions known as the corpus and antrum, which have different functions, cell types, and gland architectures. Previous studies have primarily used histologic methods to differentiate these regions and detect H. pylori-induced alterations leading to stomach cancer. In this study, we investigated H. pylori-induced gastric molecular alterations in a Mongolian gerbil model of carcinogenesis. We report the detection of numerous proteins that are preferentially localized to the gastric corpus but not the antrum in a normal stomach. We show that stomachs with H. pylori-induced atrophic gastritis (a precancerous condition characterized by the loss of specialized cell types) exhibit marked changes in the abundance and localization of proteins normally localized to the gastric corpus. These results provide new insights into H. pylori-induced gastric molecular alterations that are associated with the development of stomach cancer.

Project description:Background and aimsMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known for their function as translational regulators of tumor suppressor or oncogenes. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNAs related genes have been shown to affect the regulatory capacity of miRNAs and were linked with gastric cancer (GC) and premalignant gastric conditions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate potential associations between miRNA-related gene polymorphisms (miR-27a, miR-146a, miR-196a-2, miR-492 and miR-608) and the presence of GC or high risk atrophic gastritis (HRAG) in European population.MethodsGene polymorphisms were analyzed in 995 subjects (controls: n = 351; GC: n = 363; HRAG: n = 281) of European descent. MiR-27a T>C (rs895819), miR-146a G>C (rs2910164), miR-196a-2 C>T (rs11614913), miR-492 G>C (rs2289030) and miR-608 C>G (rs4919510) SNPs were genotyped by RT-PCR.ResultsOverall, SNPs of miRNAs were not associated with the presence of GC or HRAG. We observed a tendency for miR-196a-2 CT genotype to be associated with higher risk of GC when compared to CC genotype, however, the difference did not reach the adjusted P-value (odds ratio (OR) - 1.46, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.03-2.07, P = 0.032). MiR-608 GG genotype was more frequent in GC when compared to controls (OR -2.34, 95% CI 1.08-5.04), but significance remained marginal (P = 0.029). A similar tendency was observed in a recessive model for miR-608, where CC + CG vs GG genotype comparison showed a tendency for increased risk of GC with OR of 2.44 (95% CI 1.14-5.22, P = 0.021). The genotypes and alleles of miR-27a, miR-146a, miR-196a-2, miR-492 and miR-608 SNPs had similar distribution between histological subtypes of GC and were not linked with the presence of diffuse or intestinal-type GC.ConclusionsGene polymorphisms of miR-27a, miR-146a, miR-196a-2, miR-492, miR-492a and miR-608 were not associated with the presence of HRAG, GC or different histological subtypes of GC in European subjects.
