Abstract
Indole-3-lactic acid (ILA) has exhibited antimicrobial properties. However, its role in inhibiting Helicobacter pylori infection remains elusive. This study investigated the inhibitory effect of ILA produced by Lacticaseibacillus paracasei on H. pylori, which was further confirmed by cell and animal experiments. 5 mg/mL ILA was sufficient to directly inhibit the growth of H. pylori in vitro, with a urease inhibitory activity reaching 60.94 ± 1.03%, and the cell morphology and structure were destroyed. ILA inhibited 56.5% adhesion of H. pylori to GES-1 and significantly reduced the number of apoptotic cells. Furthermore, ILA suppresses H. pylori colonization by approximately 38% to 63%, reduced inflammation and oxidative stress in H. pylori-infected mice, and enhanced the enrichment and variety of gut microbiota, notably fostering the growth of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains. The results support that ILA derived from Lactobacillus can be applicated as a novel prebiotic in anti-H. pylori functional foods.

Abstract
The chemokine-like factor (CKLF)-like MARVEL transmembrane domain-containing (CMTM) family includes CMTM1-8 and CKLF, and they play key roles in the hematopoietic, immune, cardiovascular, and male reproductive systems, participating in the physiological functions, cancer, and other diseases associated with these systems. CMTM family members activate and chemoattract immune cells to affect the proliferation and invasion of tumor cells through a similar mechanism, the structural characteristics typical of chemokines and transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF). In this review, we discuss each CMTM family member's chromosomal location, involved signaling pathways, expression patterns, and potential roles, and mechanisms of action in pancreatic, breast, gastric and liver cancers. Furthermore, we discuss several clinically applied tumor therapies targeted at the CMTM family, indicating that CMTM family members could be novel immune checkpoints and potential targets effective in tumor treatment.

AUF1-mediated inhibition of autophagic lysosomal degradation contributes to CagA stability and Helicobacter pylori-induced inflammation. Gut Microbes 2024; 16:2382766. [PMID: 39068523 PMCID: PMC11285221 DOI: 10.1080/19490976.2024.2382766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
CagA, a virulence factor of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), is known to drive inflammation in gastric epithelial cells and is typically degraded through autophagy. However, the molecular mechanism by which CagA evades autophagy-mediated degradation remains elusive. This study found that H. pylori inhibits autophagic flux by upregulating the expression of AU-rich element RNA-binding factor 1 (AUF1). We confirmed that AUF1 does not affect autophagy initiation but instead hampers lysosomal clearance, as evidenced by treatments with 3-MA, CQ and BafA1. Upregulated AUF1 stabilizes CagA protein levels by inhibiting the autolysosomal degradation of intracellular CagA in H. pylori-infected gastric epithelial cells. Knocking down AUF1 promotes CagA degradation, an effect that can be reversed by the lysosome inhibitor BafA1 and CQ. Transcriptome analysis of AUF1-knockdown gastric epithelial cells infected with H. pylori indicated that AUF1 regulates the expression of lysosomal-associated hydrolase genes, specifically CTSD, to inhibit autolysosomal degradation. Moreover, we observed that knockdown of AUF1 enhanced the stability of CTSD mRNA and identified AUF1 binding to the 3'UTR region of CTSD mRNA. AUF1-mediated downregulation of CTSD expression contributes to CagA stability, and AUF1 overexpression leads to an increase in CagA levels in exosomes, thus promoting extracellular inflammation. In clinical gastric mucosa, the expression of AUF1 and its cytoplasmic translocation are associated with H. pylori-associated gastritis, with CagA being necessary for the translocation of AUF1 into the cytoplasm. Our findings suggest that AUF1 is a novel host-positive regulator of CagA, and dysregulation of AUF1 expression increases the risk of H. pylori-associated gastritis.
