The Interplay between Helicobacter pylori and Gut Microbiota in Non-Gastrointestinal Disorders: A Special Focus on Atherosclerosis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17520. [PMID: 38139349 PMCID: PMC10744166 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242417520] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The discovery of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the early 1980s by Nobel Prize winners in medicine Robin Warren and Barry Marshall led to a revolution in physiopathology and consequently in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease. Subsequently, H. pylori has also been linked to non-gastrointestinal diseases, such as autoimmune thrombocytopenia, acne rosacea, and Raynaud's syndrome. In addition, several studies have shown an association with cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Our narrative review aims to investigate the connection between H. pylori infection, gut microbiota, and extra-gastric diseases, with a particular emphasis on atherosclerosis. We conducted an extensive search on PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus, using the keywords "H. pylori", "dysbiosis", "microbiota", "atherosclerosis", "cardiovascular disease" in the last ten years. Atherosclerosis is a complex condition in which the arteries thicken or harden due to plaque deposits in the inner lining of an artery and is associated with several cardiovascular diseases. Recent research has highlighted the role of the microbiota in the pathogenesis of this group of diseases. H. pylori is able to both directly influence the onset of atherosclerosis and negatively modulate the microbiota. H. pylori is an important factor in promoting atherosclerosis. Progress is being made in understanding the underlying mechanisms, which could open the way to interesting new therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is thought to impact various extragastric diseases, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common chronic liver disease. Meanwhile, the pathogenesis of NAFLD needs further research, and effective treatment for this disease remains elusive. In this mini-review, we enumerate and ponder on the evidence demonstrating an association between H. pylori infection and NAFLD. Primarily, we delve into high-quality meta-analyses and clinical randomized controlled trials focusing on the association studies between the two. We also discuss clinical studies that present opposite conclusions. In addition, we propose a mechanism through which H. pylori infection aggravates NAFLD: inflammatory cytokines and adipocytokines, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier and microbiota, H. pylori outer membrane vesicles and H. pylori-infected cell-extracellular vesicles. This mini-review aims to further explore NAFLD pathogenesis and extragastric disease mechanisms caused by H. pylori infection.

Infection with Helicobacter pylori may predispose to atherosclerosis: role of inflammation and thickening of intima-media of carotid arteries. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1285754. [PMID: 37900161 PMCID: PMC10611526 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1285754] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a major instigator of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and a main cause of global morbidity and mortality. The high prevalence of CVD calls for urgent attention to possible preventive measures in order to curb its incidence. Traditional risk factors of atherosclerosis, like age, smoking, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, hypertension and chronic inflammation, are under extensive investigation. However, these only account for around 50% of the etiology of atherosclerosis, mandating a search for different or overlooked risk factors. In this regard, chronic infections, by Helicobacter pylori for instance, are a primary candidate. H. pylori colonizes the gut and contributes to several gastrointestinal diseases, but, recently, the potential involvement of this bacterium in extra-gastric diseases including CVD has been under the spotlight. Indeed, H. pylori infection appears to stimulate foam cell formation as well as chronic immune responses that could upregulate key inflammatory mediators including cytokines, C-reactive protein, and lipoproteins. These factors are involved in the thickening of intima-media of carotid arteries (CIMT), a hallmark of atherosclerosis. Interestingly, H. pylori infection was found to increase (CIMT), which along with other evidence, could implicate H. pylori in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Nevertheless, the involvement of H. pylori in CVD and atherosclerosis remains controversial as several studies report no connection between H. pylori and atherosclerosis. This review examines and critically discusses the evidence that argues for a potential role of this bacterium in atherogenesis. However, additional basic and clinical research studies are warranted to convincingly establish the association between H. pylori and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune hemorrhagic disease characterized by increased platelet destruction and impaired thrombopoiesis. The changes in platelet indices depend on the morphology and volume of platelets. Serum lipids have been found to affect platelet formation and activity in certain diseases, thus inducing the corresponding variation of platelet indices. METHODS Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed based on databases. The clinical data from 457 ITP patients were retrospectively collected and analyzed, including platelet indices, serum lipids, hemorrhages and therapeutic responses. RESULTS MR analysis showed low high-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low apolipoprotein A-1, high triglyceride (TG) and high apolipoprotein B (ApoB) caused high platelet distribution width (PDW); high low-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) increased mean platelet volume (MPV). In ITP, there were positive correlations between platelet count with TG, PDW with HDL-C and ApoB, and plateletcrit with TG and non-esterified fatty acid, and the correlation had gender differences. Bleeding scores were negatively correlated with cholesterol and LDL-C. LDL-C and homocysteine were risk factors for therapeutic responses. CONCLUSIONS Serum lipids, especially cholesterol were tightly correlated with platelet indices, hemorrhage and therapeutic effects in ITP patients. These results provide clinical references for the management of serum lipids, and highlight the necessity to further explore the relationship between lipids and pathogenesis of ITP.

Metabolite Alterations and Interactions with Microbiota in Helicobacter pylori-Associated Gastric Lesions. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0534722. [PMID: 37358459 PMCID: PMC10434277 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.05347-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Metabolites and their interactions with microbiota may be involved in Helicobacter pylori-associated gastric lesion development. This study aimed to explore metabolite alterations upon H. pylori eradication and possible roles of microbiota-metabolite interactions in progression of precancerous lesions. Targeted metabolomics assays and 16S rRNA gene sequencing were conducted to investigate metabolic and microbial alterations of paired gastric biopsy specimens in 58 subjects with successful and 57 subjects with failed anti-H. pylori treatment. Integrative analyses were performed by combining the metabolomics and microbiome profiles from the same intervention participants. A total of 81 metabolites were significantly altered after successful eradication compared to failed treatment, including acylcarnitines, ceramides, triacylglycerol, cholesterol esters, fatty acid, sphingolipids, glycerophospholipids, and glycosylceramides, with P values of <0.05 for all. The differential metabolites showed significant correlations with microbiota in baseline biopsy specimens, such as negative correlations between Helicobacter and glycerophospholipids, glycosylceramide, and triacylglycerol (P < 0.05 for all), which were altered by eradication. The characteristic negative correlations between glycosylceramides and Fusobacterium, Streptococcus, and Gemella in H. pylori-positive baseline biopsy specimens were further noticed in active gastritis and intestinal metaplasia (P < 0.05 for all). A panel including differential metabolites, genera, and their interactions may help to discriminate high-risk subjects who progressed from mild to advanced precancerous lesions in short-term and long-term follow-up periods with areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.914 and 0.801, respectively. Therefore, our findings provide new insights into the metabolites and microbiota interactions in H. pylori-associated gastric lesion progression. IMPORTANCE In this study, a panel was established including differential metabolites, genera, and their interactions, which may help to discriminate high-risk subjects for progression from mild lesions to advanced precancerous lesions in short-term and long-term follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a gram-negative and microaerophilic bacterium, Helicobacter pylori (HP) is the main cause of chronic gastritis. Therefore, considering the high prevalence of HP infection worldwide, as well as the increasing prevalence of metabolic disorders, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between HP infection eradication and metabolic profile. METHODS This prospective case-control study was performed on patients with HP infection whom referred to 7 medical centers in 3 countries (Iran, Egypt, and Vietnam) in 2020-2021. The metabolic profile of all of the participants evaluated before starting of treatment for HP eradication and 3 months after the treatment. Then changes of metabolic profile compared between those with successful HP eradication (group A) and subjects who failed to eradicate (group B). RESULTS Overall, 199 patients, including 93 male (46.7%) with the mean age of 44.5 years (18-93 years) included. Based on response to treatment, the participants allocate into group A (those who respond to HP eradication): 164 cases (82.42%); or group B as those who failed to achieve eradication (35 cases, 17.58%). Racially 86.9% of participants were Caucasian and 89% diagnosed as non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD). The most prevalent comorbidity include hypertension (11.5%) and hyperlipidemia (10%) which were more prevalent in group B (P = 0.002). Three months after therapy, average weight of participants among those who achieved eradication (group A) decreased from 73.1 to 71.4 kg (P = 0.01), but in comparison with group B, was non-significant (P = 0.171). The BMI of patients before and after treatment did not show any significant differences. The biochemical parameters of patients before and after treatment were not significantly different regardless of treatment success (P > 0.05). The levels of total cholesterol and VLDL cholesterol after treatment were not significantly different from baseline values in two groups. HDL and LDL cholesterol levels before and after treatment in the resistant group were significantly higher than the responding group. Average serum TG level decreased significantly after treatment in the group A (P < 0.0001), in contrast to the resistant group (P = 0.356). The liver transaminases (AST and ALT) before and after treatment were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). The results of logistic regression showed that the eradication of infection has no significant affect any of the metabolic profile parameters. CONCLUSION HP infection treatment in individuals without significant metabolic disorders does not affect metabolic parameters up to 3 months after eradication. HP eradication among subjects with several comorbidities mandates eradication protocol intensification to avoid treatment failure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic gastritis is one of the most prevalent disorders affecting individuals. It affects hundreds of millions of people in different ways around the world. The objective of the study was to estimate the spice intake and its relationship with the blood lipid level among patients with chronic gastritis in the outpatient department of tertiary care hospital. METHODOLOGY The study design was a hospital-based cross-sectional study that was done in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh. The study population included 208 chronic gastritis patients between 20 and 60 years of age selected by systematic sampling. Detailed information on sociodemographic and lifestyle factors was collected using a questionnaire. Individual dietary intake data were collected by the detailed 24-hour dietary recall. Spice intake was calculated using Diet Calc Software. An independent t-test was used as a test for significance. The correlation was used to study the relationship between spicy food intake and dyslipidemia. P-value <0.05 was significant. RESULTS A total of 208 patients were enrolled in the study with a response rate of 91%. The mean age of the studied patients was 45.15 ± 9.27 years, with 46.6% males and 53.4% females. Almost half (45.7%) of the participants had "mild" spicy food in their diet and almost two-fifths (39.9%) of participants had a "moderate or middle" degree of spice in their food. The mean dietary intake of condiments and spices by the participants was 34.19 (±22.18) gm/day. The current study showed higher spice intake was significantly correlated with impaired lipid profile levels with Kendall's tau_b correlation coefficient of 0.17 (p=0.01). CONCLUSION Because of the excessive use of spices in the Guntur region of Andhra Pradesh, people have grown accustomed to eating spicy food since childhood and therefore is at a higher risk of developing chronic gastritis, and dyslipidemia.
