The role of the gastrointestinal microbiome in Helicobacter pylori pathogenesis

Abstract: The discovery of Helicobacter pylori overturned the conventional dogma that the stomach was a sterile organ and that pH values<4 were capable of sterilizing the stomach. H. pylori are an etiological agent associated with gastritis, hypochlorhydria, duodenal ulcers, and gastric cancer. It is now appreciated that the human stomach supports a bacterial community with possibly 100s of bacterial species that influence stomach homeostasis. Other bacteria colonizing the stomach may also influence H. pylori-associated… Show more

“…It is possible that gastric microbiota constitutes the link between H. pylori and gastric carcinogenesis, when other bacteria colonize the stomach under conditions of decreased acidity (such as chronic atrophic gastritis), creating reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and modulating inflammatory responses (12,13). Therefore, it is important to unravel the significance of specific microbiota to determine which ones are causative of gastric cancer and which are present merely as a consequence in order to develop novel prevention and treatment strategies.…”

“…Conventional wisdom espoused the dogma that pH values < 4 were able to sterilize the stomach, but since the discovery of H. pylori [94] , a complex community of noncultivatable inhabitants have been uncovered in the stomach [95] . The interaction of gastric microbiota with H. pylori likely affects gastric immunobiology and the outcome of infection [95] .…”

“…The interaction of gastric microbiota with H. pylori likely affects gastric immunobiology and the outcome of infection [95] . Data indicate that the microbial density in the normal stomach is low (10 1 10 3 CFU/g) [94] , and the low bacterial densities within this portion of gastrointestinal tract is attributed to rapid peristalsis, low pH and/or high bile concentration [96] . The parietal cell loss caused by H. pylori infection leads to hypoch lorhydria or even achlorhydria, thereby increase the risk of bacterial overgrowth and detrimental infection [97] .…”
