Title: Non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter (NHPH) positive gastric cancer. Author: Yasuda T, Lee HS, Nam SY, Katoh H, Ishibashi Y, Yamagata Murayama S, Matsui H, Masuda H, Rimbara E, Sakurazawa N, Suzuki H, Yoshida H, Seto Y, Ishikawa S, Jeon SW, Nakamura M, Nomura S. Journal: Sci Rep; 2022 Mar 21; 12(1):4811. PubMed ID: 35314746. Abstract: Genetic analysis and culturing techniques for gastric non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter (NHPH) are progressing. NHPH is reported to accompany nodular gastritis, gastric MALT lymphoma, and mild gastritis. However, only a few gastric cancer cases infected by NHPH have been reported. PCR analysis specific for NHPH and H. pylori was performed for DNA from gastric mucosa of 282 Korean gastric cancer patients, who were treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection. For more precise strain detection of NHPH, NHPH-positive mucosa was stained by immunohistochemistry specific for Helicobacter suis. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) classification was analyzed for these 3 gastric cancer sub-groups by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Among 281 patients, 3 patients (1.1%) were positive for NHPH. One patient (Patient 1) was also positive for H. pylori by PCR, another patient (Patient 3) was positive for serum IgG for H. pylori, and the other patient (Patient 2) had no evidence for H. pylori infection. Gastric mucosa of Patients 2 and 3 were positive for H. suis staining. All three NHPH-positive gastric cancers were located in the antrum, and belonged to the Chromosomal Instability Type of TCGA classification. Gastric NHPH can be a cause of gastric cancer, although likely with lower pathogenesis than H. pylori.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
