CagA+Helicobacter pylori, Not CagA–Helicobacter pylori, Infection Impairs Endothelial Function Through Exosomes-Mediated ROS Formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection increases the risk for atherosclerosis, and ROS are critical to endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. CagA is a major H. pylori virulence factor associated with atherosclerosis. The present study

Differential Mechanisms for SHP2 Binding and Activation Are Exploited by Geographically Distinct Helicobacter pylori CagA Oncoproteins

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Helicobacter pylori East Asian CagA is more closely associated with gastric cancer than Western CagA. Here we show that, upon tyrosine phosphorylation, the East Asian CagA-specific EPIYA-D segment binds to the N-SH2 domain of pro-oncogenic SHP2 ...

Helicobacter pylori CagA Protein Negatively Regulates Autophagy and Promotes Inflammatory Response via c-Met-PI3K/Akt-mTOR Signaling Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Cytotoxin-associated-gene A (CagA) of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a virulence factor that plays critical roles in H. pylori-induced gastric inflammation.

Molecular docking of a set of flavonoid compounds with Helicobacter pylori virulence factors CagA and VacA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of HerbMed Pharmacology, 2020
Introduction: Cytotoxin associated gene A (CagA) and vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) proteins are the main Helicobacter pylori virulence factors. These toxins are associated with severe gastric diseases.

CagA Positive Helicobacter Pylori Infection in Coronary Atherosclerosis: Discriminative value of lymphocyte to mean platelet volume ratio.

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Medicine, 2021
Aim: Potent combined and long-term antithrombotic therapies that predispose to gastric injury are the mainstay of treatment in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Severe chronic gastric mucosal inflammation due to the Helicobacter Pylori (H.

THE H. PYLORI-RELATED VIRULENCE FACTOR CAGA INFLUENCES THE EXPRESSION OF CHEMOKINES CXCL10, CCL17, CCL20, CCL22, AND THEIR RECEPTORS BY PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS FROM PEPTIC ULCER PATIENTS [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2020
BACKGROUND: During the Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection, the infiltration of the leukocytes into stomach mucosa is directed by locally produced chemokines that play a decisive role in infection outcome.

EPIYA motif genetic characterization from Helicobacter pylori isolates in distinct geographical regions of Iran

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2022
Background: This study aimed to determine the current EPIYA motifs of the cagA gene in Helicobacter pylori isolates from patients with gastric disorders, and evaluate the association between these patterns and the clinical outcome of H.

Helicobacter pylori CagA EPIYA Motif Variations Affect Metabolic Activity in B Cells

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) colonizes the human stomach and can induce gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Clinical observations suggest a role for the Hp virulence factor cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) in ...

Host immune response mediates changes in cagA copy number and virulence potential of Helicobacter pylori

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2022
Helicobacter pylori is the major risk factor for gastric cancer. H. pylori harboring the type IV secretion system (T4SS) and its effector CagA encoded on the cag pathogenicity Island (cagPAI) increases the risk. H. pylori PMSS1 has a multi-cagA genotype,

Helicobacter pylori CagA disrupts epithelial patterning by activating myosin light chain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Helicobacter pylori infection is a leading cause of ulcers and gastric cancer. We show that expression of the H. pylori virulence factor CagA in a model Drosophila melanogaster epithelium induces morphological disruptions including ectopic furrowing.
