Helicobacter Pylori Infection is a Significant Risk for Modified Lipid Profile in Japanese Male Subjects

Abstract: Conclusions:The present study demonstrates that Helicobacter pylori infection is significantly associated with high LDL-cholesteremia and low HDL-cholesteremia in Japanese male subjects.

“…Although previous studies of the association between H. pylori and the serum lipid levels have often yielded contradictory results, those findings have generally indicated that patients with this infection have a moderately increased risk of dyslipidemia 122,124,125) . Moreover, H. pylori infection has been shown to be associated with decreased HDL cholesterol (HDL-c), apoAI and HDL-c to total cholesterol values and increased apoB levels, indicating that current infection with H. pylori is correlated with an atherogenic modified lipid profile 122,123,126) . These changes are thought to be mediated by cytokines, particularly TNF-α, which inhibits lipoprotein lipase and thus results in the mobilization of lipids from tissues as well as elevation of serum triglycerides and reductions in HDL-c 127) .…”

“…CRP may elicit a wide array of pro-atherogenic effects, including the stimulation of leukocyte-endothelium interactions, induction of a prothrombotic state and activation of the complement system 91) . IL-6 is an upstream inflammatory cytokine that plays a central role in propagating the downstream infection, such as that involving H. pylori, represent an atherogenic link [122][123][124] . Although previous studies of the association between H. pylori and the serum lipid levels have often yielded contradictory results, those findings have generally indicated that patients with this infection have a moderately increased risk of dyslipidemia 122,124,125) .…”

“…20 Also, significant correlations between low HDL-C levels with Helicobacter pylori infection were found in Japanese males. 21 Also, studies have identified a link between HDL size and adiposity markers such as WC or visceral fat assessed by computed tomography. 22 Our results extend these previous findings in wellphenotyped, overweight, lipid-lowering treatment-free patients with abdominal obesity.…”
