Role of the Helicobacter pylori‐Induced inflammatory response in the development of gastric cancer

Abstract: H. pylori infection causes chronic gastritis and peptic ulceration and is the strongest risk factor for the development of gastric cancer. The pathogenesis of H. pylori is believed to be associated with infection-initiated chronic gastritis, which is characterized by enhanced expression of many inflammatory genes. H. pylori utilizes various virulence factors, targeting different cellular proteins, to modulate the host inflammatory response. In this review, we explore the many different ways by which H. pylori … Show more

“…Preexistent hematological conditions might be responsible for the increased risk found in these patients (34,35). The higher incidence of gastric cancer might be explained by the fact that asplenic patients are more prone to develop Helicobacter pylori infections which is a known risk factor for gastric cancer (32,36).…”

“…Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative, microaerophilic bacterium which colonizes the gastric mucosa of human (1)(2)(3) and is related with gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric cancer, and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT) (4). In developing countries, H. pylori prevalence is high and approximately 70% of the people have H. pylori, while 25%-50% of the population in the developed countries is infected by H. pylori.…”

“…H. pylori can either directly promote gastrointestinal carcinogenesis through the enhanced production of free radicals or indirectly through the establishment of carcinogenic environment because of longterm inflammation of the gastric mucosa, which eventually results in mucosal atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, and cancer. Accordingly, chronic inflammation caused by H. pylori is a major step in the initiation and development of gastric cancer (18). However, the exact mechanism remains unclear.…”
