Inflammation, Immunity, and Vaccines for Helicobacter pylori Infection

Abstract: The immune response to H. pylori is a multifaceted group of mechanisms involving responses that are both protective and damaging to the host. The innate and the adaptive immune responses lead to damaging inflammatory responses, but these responses are also kept in check, allowing for persistence of many infections. Thus, developing new therapeutics and effective vaccines against H. pylori has proven to be arduous. In this manuscript, we will examine the advances in knowledge made in the past year in understand… Show more

“…The failure of immune system to eradicate H. pylori during the acute phase of infection may result in an inadequate immune response leading to chronic gastritis, development of peptic ulcer disease, or even gastric cancer [ 20 ]. We have proven in our previous study that the success of H. pylori eradication therapy by antibiotics is at least partially dependent upon cytokine response by T cells [ 19 ].…”

“…The immunomodulatory effect of fucoidans is commonly known . The negative influences exerted by H. pylori on inborn and acquired immunity have been discussed above . Polysaccharides from marine algae, while possessing a broad spectrum of biological activities, are also antagonists of functions of both inborn and acquired immunity; this finding enables researchers to recommend them as correctors of disturbances caused by humoral and cellular factors of the organisms defense against the H. pylori infection.…”

“…Ammonia that produced from the activity of HP urease on urea, react with hypochlorous anion reacts to produce monochloramine (NH 2 Cl), the lipophilic cytotoxic oxidant which freely penetrates gastric epithelial cells membranes to oxidize intracellular components and produce DNA damage. On the other hand, CagA was shown to induce spermine oxidase in gastric epithelial cells and produce H 2 O 2 that leads to apoptosis, and DNA damage during infection [42]. Moderate to heavy lymphocytic infiltration detected in the present study supports the suggestion that HP is capable of invading gastric mucosal epithelial cells [43] and gastric epithelia continuously exposes to oxidative stress due to HP CagA, urease and other products causing induction of NF-κB that enhance inflammatory reaction by a network of cytokines and chemokines for attraction of different immunocytes to gastric epithelia and induce their activation [44].…”
