cagA and vacA status and influence of Helicobacter pylori infection on serum oxidative DNA damage in Iranian patients with peptic ulcer disease

Abstract: These virulence factors are not associated with the development of PUD in Iranian patients. H. pylori infection may be associated with increased serum 8-OHdG.

“…Demirturk et al suggested that cagA positivity is associated with more severe glandular atrophy, inflammation, and activity, whereas Saruc et al demonstrated a relationship between cagA positivity with inflammation, H. pylori density, and intestinal metaplasia but not with glandular atrophy [21,22]. In our study, we found 71.2% infected patients with cagA-positive which are similar to some reports from Iran [23] and different from reports of South and East Asian where the presence of cagA strain and its association with clinical outcomes is more than 90% [24,25]. It has been shown that the prevalence of cagA-positive strains in USA and Europe is 60e70% [26].…”

“…Many other disease-associated virulence factors have now been identified, but unfortunately most seem linked to the cagA status and hence probably do not represent independent risk factors (Kusters et al, 2006). In this study, cagA was found at a similar level in all of the gastrointestinal disorders, which was somewhat unexpected considering a recent report that failed to find a significant link between cagA and H. pylori infection-associated disease types among Iranian patients (Khodaii et al, 2011). In the current study, cagA and dupA were not colinked to a specific disease type and thus they were independent predictors for the clinical outcome of H. pylori infection, as has been suggested previously Zhang et al, 2008).…”

“…Consistent with this finding, ROS and RON are important metabolites that can mediate many DNA damage signaling pathways. To this end, 8‐OH‐deoxyguanosine (8‐OHdG) and 8‐nitroguanine (8‐NG) are commonly used and are highly sensitive markers for ROS‐ and RNS‐mediated DNA oxidation, respectively . ROS and RNS can play an important role in cellular injury and carcinogenesis of gastric epithelial cells infected with H pylori .…”
