Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13042. [PMID: 38018403 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It's still controversial whether Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication can reverse atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM). Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the effect of H. pylori eradication on AG and IM. METHODS We searched the PubMed, Web of Science and EMBASE datasets through April 2023 for epidemiological studies, which provided mean glandular atrophy (GA) or IM score before and after H. pylori eradication, or provided ORs, RRs or HRs and 95% CIs for the association of AG or IM with H. pylori eradication. Weighted mean difference (WMD) and pooled ORs and 95%CIs were used to estimate the effect of H. pylori eradication on AG and IM. RESULTS Twenty articles with a total of 5242 participants were included in this meta-analysis. H. pylori eradication significantly decreased GA score in the antrum (WMD -0.36; 95% CI: -0.52, -0.19, p < 0.01), GA score in the corpus (WMD -0.35; 95% CI: -0.52, -0.19, p < 0.01), IM score in the antrum (WMD -0.16; 95% CI: -0.26, -0.07, p < 0.01) and IM score in the corpus (WMD -0.20; 95% CI: -0.37, -0.04, p = 0.01). H. pylori eradication significantly improved AG (pooled OR 2.96; 95% CI: 1.70, 5.14, p < 0.01) and IM (pooled OR 2.41; 95% CI: 1.24, 4.70, p < 0.01). The association remained significant in the subgroup analyses by study design, sites of lesions, regions and follow-up time. Although Publication bias was observed for AG, the association remained significant after trim-and-fill adjustment. CONCLUSIONS H. pylori eradication could significantly improve AG and IM at early stage.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a common gastric bacterial pathogen implicated in the pathogenesis of many digestive tract disorders. H. pylori infection prevalence has been reported alarmingly in Iran. A plethora of studies have been conducted to evaluate the efficiency of first-line and second-line eradication attempts in patients diagnosed with H. pylori infections in Iran. The present study, was evaluated the efficacy of first-line and second-line therapy in H. pylori infections in Iran. We aimed to consider the literature review of the various library and electronic databases (Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar) until 2020. The frequency of bacterial resistance to tetracycline, ampicillin, trimethoprim, erythromycin, ofloxacin, and metronidazolewas found to be high in Iran, while the most effective antibiotics were clarithromycin, rifampin, rifampicin, tetracycline, amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, and azithromycin. The therapeutic choice for H. pylori eradication in Iran could be quadruple therapy using two antibiotics amoxicillin and metronidazole/clarithromycin for the first-line regimen, and a combination of furazolidone plus tetracycline/amoxicillin and bismuth plus proton pump inhibitor for the second-line regimen. Due to increased antibiotic resistance in our region, empirical therapy must be replaced by more targeted treatment based on antimicrobial drug resistance profiles obtained from patients. Although we limited our investigation on the H. pylori eradication regimens in Iran, the results can be generalized to any region as long as the patterns of resistance are the same.

Abstract
Stomach infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) causes severe gastroduodenal diseases in a large number of patients worldwide. The H. pylori infection breaks up in early childhood, persists lifelong if not treated, and is associated with chronic gastritis and an increased risk of peptic ulcers and gastric cancer. In recent years, the problem of drug-resistant strains has become a global concern that makes the treatment more complicated and the infection persistent at higher levels when the antibiotic treatment is stopped. Such problems have led to the development of new strategies to eradicate an H. pylori infection. Currently, one of the most important strategies for the treatment of H. pylori infection is the use of urease inhibitors. Despite the fact that large numbers of molecules have been shown to exert potent inhibitory activity against H. pylori urease, most of them were prevented from being used in vivo and in clinical trials due to their hydrolytic instability, toxicity, and appearance of undesirable side effects. Therefore, it is crucial to focus attention on the available opportunities for the development of urease inhibitors with suitable pharmacokinetics, high hydrolytic stability, and free toxicological profiles. In this commentary, we aim to afford an outline on the current status of the use of urease inhibitors in the treatment of an H. pylori infection, and to discuss the possibility of their development as effective drugs in clinical trials.

In vitro synergistic effect of Hibiscus sabdariffa aqueous extract in combination with standard antibiotics against Helicobacter pylori clinical isolates. PHARMACEUTICAL BIOLOGY 2016; 54:1736-40.

Abstract
Context The increasing problem of drug-resistant strains has led to the failure of current treatment regimens of Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection. Recently, a new treatment strategy has been developed to overcome the problem by using natural products in combination with antibiotics to enhance the treatment efficacy. Objective The antimicrobial combinatory effect of the aqueous extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (Malvaceae) (AEHS) with antibiotics (clarithromycin, CLA; amoxicillin, AMX; metronidazole, MTZ) has been evaluated in vitro against HP strains. Materials and methods Hibiscus calyces (35 g) were brewed in 250 mL of boiled water for 30 min, and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined by agar dilution method. The checkerboard assay was used to evaluate the antimicrobial combinatory effect according to the sum of fractional inhibitory concentration (∑FIC) indices. Results In this study, AEHS exerted remarkable bacteriostatic effect against all HP strains tested with MICs values ranging from 9.18 to 16.68 μg/mL. Synergy effect of AEHS with CLA or MTZ was obtained against four of seven HP strains tested with ∑FIC ranging from 0.21 to 0.39. The additive effect of AEHS with AMX was obtained against five of seven HP strains tested with ∑FIC ranging from 0.61 to 0.91. Conclusion This study presents AEHS as a potent therapeutic candidate alone, or in combination with antibiotics for the treatment of HP infection.

[PMID: 26706680 DOI: 10.1016/j.apjtm.2015.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2015] [Revised: 10/20/2015] [Accepted: 11/03/2015] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To build the rat model of gastric precancerous lesions and discuss the effect of transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) on the pathological change. METHODS The rat model of gastric precancerous lesions was built using N-methyl-N'-nitro-N'-nitrosoguanidine. After the intravenous transplantation of BMMSCs, the migration and colonization location was then observed, as well as its effect on the related factors of gastric precancerous lesions, including VEGF, IL-10 and IFN-γ. RESULTS BMMSCs were mainly colonized in the gastric body and gastric antrum, which could be differentiated into the epithelial and interstitial cells. The expression of VEGF in the transplantation group and non-transplantation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05); while the expression of VEGF in the transplantation group was significantly higher than that in the non-transplantation group (t = 3.88, P < 0.001). The expression of serum IL-10 and IFN-γ in the transplantation group and non-transplantation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05), while the expression of IL-10 and IFN-γ in the transplantation group was significantly lower than that in the non-transplantation group (t = 3.03, P = 0.004; t = 3.80, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS BMMSCs can be directionally differentiated into the epithelial and interstitial cells and can also regulate the related growth factors and inflammatory factors to reduce the injury of inflammation, relieve or reverse the process of gastric precancerous lesions.
