    Objective Although the characteristics of Helicobacter pylori infection have been extensively reported, there is a lack of consensus regarding its characteristics in young adults. The present study examined the endoscopic and histological characteristics of young adults who underwent eradication therapy for H. pylori infection. Methods We examined the H. pylori infection status of first-year students at Okayama University School of Medicine and Dentistry between 2014 and 2020. A total of 152 (6.8%) students who were positive for H. pylori antibody or pepsinogen tests were enrolled in the study. Among them, 107 students underwent endoscopy, and their biopsy samples were investigated. Seventy-five students were diagnosed with H. pylori infections. Results Of 75 H. pylori-positive patients, 57 (76.0%) had endoscopic atrophic gastritis, and 42 (56.0%) had histological atrophy. A few patients had severe atrophic gastritis. All 65 patients who underwent an eradication assessment were successfully treated. After successful eradication, 26 patients underwent endoscopic follow-up. The mean follow-up period was 32.9 months. A histological evaluation revealed that gastric antrum atrophy had subsided in 11 of 14 patients, and atrophy in the lesser curvature of the gastric body had subsided in 7 of 8 patients. Conclusion More than half of young adults with H. pylori infection had atrophic gastritis. We found mild atrophy in young adults, which subsided shortly after eradication treatment. This study provides a foundation for future studies to evaluate the validity of eradication therapy in preventing gastric cancer in patients.

    Helicobacter pylori infection is an important risk factor for developing gastric cancer. However, only a few H. pylori-infected people develop gastric cancer. Thus, other risk factors aside from H. pylori infection may be involved in gastric cancer development. This study aimed to investigate whether the nitrate-reducing bacteria isolated from patients with atrophic gastritis caused by H. pylori infection are risk factors for developing atrophic gastritis and gastric neoplasia. Nitrate-reducing bacteria were isolated from patients with atrophic gastritis caused by H. pylori infection. Among the isolated bacteria, Actinomyces oris, Actinomyces odontolyticus, Rothia dentocariosa, and Rothia mucilaginosa were used in the subsequent experiments. Cytokine inducibility was evaluated in monocytic cells, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity and cell cycle were assessed in the gastric epithelial cells. The cytotoxicities and neutrophil-inducing abilities of the Actinomyces and Rothia species were enhanced when cocultured with H. pylori. Th1/Th2-related cytokines were also expressed, but their expression levels differed depending on the bacterial species. Moreover, H. pylori and Actinomyces activated MAPK (ERK and p38) and affected cell cycle progression. Some nitrate-reducing bacteria cocultured with H. pylori may promote inflammation and atrophy by inducing cytokine production. In addition, the MAPK activation and cell cycle progression caused by these bacteria can contribute to gastric cancer development.

    BACKGROUND: Eradication treatment for Helicobacter pylori gastritis is covered by national health insurance since 2013 in Japan. However, eradication failure due to the increase of antimicrobial resistance has become a serious problem. The present study aims to establish a reference panel of Japanese H. pylori strains for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. METHOD: A total of 28 strains were collected from 4 medical facilities in Japan. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests (ASTs) to clarithromycin (CLR), amoxicillin (AMX), and metronidazole (MNZ), were used to select standard reference strains. Complete genome sequences were also determined. RESULTS: Three H. pylori strains (JSHR3, JSHR6 and JSHR31) were selected as standard reference strains by the Japanese Society for Helicobacter Research (JSHR). The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the antibiotics against these 3 strains by agar dilution method with Brucella-based horse-serum-containing agar medium were as follows: JSHR3 (CLR 16 μg/ml, AMX 0.032 μg/ml and MNZ 4 μg/ml), JSHR6 (CLR 0.016 μg/ml, AMX 0.032 μg/ml and MNZ 4 μg/ml), and JSHR31 (CLR 16 μg/ml, AMX 1 μg/ml and MNZ 64 μg/ml). CONCLUSIONS: A reference panel of H. pylori JSHR strains was established. The panel consisted of JSHR6, which was antibiotic-susceptible, JSHR3, which was CLR-resistant, and JSHR31, which was multi-resistant. This reference panel will be essential for standardized ASTs before the optimal drugs are selected for eradication treatment.

    The statistical correlation between the number of oral streptococci and the results of ATP bioluminescence assay was examined and compared with the results from Streptococcus plate counts and an oral bacteria quantification system. Because a significant correlation was found between ATP (RLU) and the number of bacteria in the oral bacteria quantification system for all seven types of oral streptococci examined, ATP would reflect a conditions of oral hygiene. However, using this assay, it was observed it may be difficult to correctly evaluate bacteria that form aggregates. Furthermore, even a small number of bacteria (below 105 CFU/mL) , which cannot be measured by the oral bacteria quantification system, could be estimated by using ATP bioluminescence assay. It was suggested that this assay could be used for quantitative evaluation of the effect of oral cleaning.

    Elizabethkingia anophelis is a pathogen that can cause a life-threatening infection in immunocompromised patients. The first case of E. anophelis infection was reported in 2013; subsequently, an increase in its incidence has been reported globally. Additionally, a mortality rate of more than 30% was observed in the US outbreak of 2015. To date, the pathogenic mechanisms underlying E. anophelis infection, such as toxin production, remain unclear. Since tissue macrophages act as the first line of defense against pathogens, in the present study the interactions between E. anophelis and a macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7 were examined. Although E. anophelis showed no cytotoxicity toward RAW 264.7 macrophages, the infection inhibited LPS-induced morphological changes and activation of differentiation markers for the polarization of RAW 264.7 macrophages toward an M1-like phenotype. However, when the cell contact was restricted using Transwell inserts or bacterial culture supernatants were used instead of live bacteria, no such inhibition was observed. Moreover, it was shown that E. anophelis evaded phagocytosis. Overall, the results suggest that E. anophelis infection inhibits the differentiation of RAW 264.7 macrophages to a pro-inflammatory phenotype in a contact-dependent manner.

    We examined the hospital-wide incidence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus contamination in a hospital environment to predict the risk of the nosocomial spread of infection. Samples were also taken different surfaces and medical equipment in a general hospital ward and a staff station. The isolates were identified bacterial strains and analyzed by PCR for detection of the mecA gene and staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) types (I-V). Overall, out of 146 isolates that were screened, 15.7% of the samples in the hospital wards were contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus and 74.7% were isolated with coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CNS). The methicillin-resistant mecA gene was detected in all oxacillin-resistant S. aureus, and 89% of oxacillin-resistant CNS was identified as methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and MRCNS respectively. All S. aureus and CNS from the hospital wards with MRSA patients were detected as MRSA and MRCNS. A widespread distribution of MRSA and MRCNS was detected in the Cuff. The majority of the MRSA and MRCNS isolates in this study were SCCmec type V, which are a community-acquired infection type. The increased incidence and prevalence of community-acquired MRSA and MRCNS, as well as hospital-acquired MRSA, should be recognized as serious healthcare problems.

    BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Eradication of Helicobacter pylori reduces the risk of gastric cancer. In this study, we investigated the risk beyond 10 years after eradication of H. pylori. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 2737 patients who had yearly endoscopic follow-up after cure of H. pylori infection. For comparison of gastric cancer risk in the second decade of follow-up with that in the first decade, we calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) by dividing the number of observed cases of gastric cancer in the second decade of follow-up by that of expected cases which was estimated using the incidence rate ratio of age in the first decade. RESULTS: During the follow-up for as long as 21.4 years (mean 7.1 years), gastric cancer developed in 68 patients (0.35% per year). The SIRs for diffuse-type gastric cancer was infinity (0 expected case and 4 observed cases) in patients with mild gastric mucosal atrophy and 10.9 (95% confidence interval 4.53-26.1) with moderate atrophy, whereas no significant increase of SIRs was observed in intestinal-type cancer regardless of the grade of baseline gastric atrophy or in diffuse-type cancer in patients with severe atrophy even though who had the highest risk. CONCLUSIONS: The longer the follow-up, the greater the risk of developing diffuse-type gastric cancer becomes in patients with mild-to-moderate gastric atrophy at baseline. Endoscopic surveillance should be continued beyond 10 years after cure of H. pylori irrespective of the severity of gastric atrophy.

    Castleman-Kojima disease, also known as idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease with TAFRO syndrome (iMCD-TAFRO), is a recently recognized systemic inflammatory disorder with a characteristic series of clinical symptoms, including thrombocytopenia (T), anasarca (A), fever (F), reticulin fibrosis (R), and organomegaly (O). Patients with iMCD-TAFRO often develop severe abdominal pain, elevated alkaline phosphatase levels, and systemic inflammation, but the etiological factors are unknown. To investigate the potential role of bacterial infection in the pathogenesis of iMCD-TAFRO, we performed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the bacterial 16S rRNA gene with DNA extracted from liver specimens of three patients with iMCD-TAFRO, four patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and seven patients with inflammatory conditions. Sequencing of the PCR product showed 99% DNA sequence identity with Campylobacter jejuni in all three patients with iMCD-TAFRO and in two patients with inflammatory conditions. Immunohistochemical and electron microscopy analyses could not identify C. jejuni in patients with iMCD-TAFRO. The findings indicated that C. jejuni infection is not the pathological cause of iMCD-TAFRO; however, this ubiquitous bacterium may play a role in uncontrolled systemic hypercytokinemia, possibly through the development of cross-reactive autoantibodies.

    This study was to survey the capturing rate in Japanese dental clinics of the Lasioderma serricorne (cigarette beetles) , and to evaluate the beetle's potential as a carrier for transmission of nosocomial pathogens. L. serricorne imagoes were captured in pheromone traps in 14 Japanese dental clinics in August and September 2012 and 2013, and their numbers recorded. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the bacterial antibiotic-resistant genes mecA, vanA, vanB, blaIMP, and blaVIM was performed on the captured L. serricorne imagoes. Bacterial species in the captured specimens were identified by 16S rRNA PCR and sequencing analysis. The L. serricorne imagoes were captured from 10 dental clinics (71.4%) . We failed to detect the presence of nosocomial antibiotic-resistant pathogens in L. serricorne imagoes. The bacterial species detected most commonly in the imagoes was Wolbachia sp., an intracellular proteobacterium infecting certain insect species. Monitoring of insects including L. serricorne should be incorporated into regiment of the infection control.

    Background: Eradication effectively prevents Helicobacter pylori-associated diseases; however, H. pylori antibiotic resistance has increased throughout Japan and worldwide. This study aimed to assess rates of resistance to antibiotics; amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole in a University Hospital in Japan. Materials and methods: H. pylori (208 strains) were isolated from patients at the Okayama University Hospital in Japan. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined using the mean values of the E-test to determine the antimicrobial susceptibilities of the strains. Sequencing and gene analysis were performed to analyze resistance genes to clarithromycin and amoxicillin. Results: Rates of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and metronidazole resistance were 13%, 48%, and 49%, respectively. Genetic analysis indicated that the A2143G point mutation in 23S rDNA is closely associated with the MIC of clarithromycin. The MIC in amoxicillin-resistant strains increased with an increase in the number of PBP1A amino acids mutations. Conclusion: Genetic analysis for resistant strains is not clinically effective in cases of amoxicillin resistance. Numerous bacteria with already high antibiotic resistance rates have been isolated in large hospitals such as a University Hospital. For effective eradication therapy, MIC measurement should be considered via several methods.

    Background: Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with the incidence of gastric cancer. Endoscopic resection has been developed as a proper technique to treat early stage of gastric cancer. However, some patients develop recurrent gastric cancer within 5 years after endoscopic treatment. The aim of the present study is to explore a biomarker for detecting people who has high risk of gastric cancer recurrence. Methods: We analyzed the Interleukin-10 (IL-10) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and IgG subclass responses to the bacteria in patients with early gastric cancer and recurrent gastric cancer. Results: Patients with hetero-type in the 1082 SNP and CC genotype in the 592 SNP were at high risk of recurrence of gastric cancer. In patients with genotype carrying high risk of recurrence, IgG1 level tended to be higher than that in patients with other genotypes. Conclusions: Dominance of T helper 2 (Th2) immunity controlled by IL-10 cytokine may be associated with H. pylori-associated gastric cancer recurrence.

    The bacterium Vibrio alginolyticus, an opportunistic pathogen in humans, has a type III secretion system (T3SS) that is responsible for its cytotoxicity toward eukaryotic cells. The effector of T3SS that is responsible for the cytotoxicity had not been identified. Here we demonstrate that VepA, a homolog of the T3SS effector in V. parahaemolyticus, is required for cytotoxicity in V. alginolyticus. VepA induces lysosomal membrane permeabilization, and it allows the leakage of only small molecules into the cytosol. Our findings revealed that VepA induces cathepsin-independent cell death in mammalian cells. The ferrous ion, one of the small molecules in the lysosome contents, appears to be involved in the cell death caused by V. alginolyticus VepA.

    Helicobacter pylori infections cause gastritis and affect systemic immune responses; however, no direct association between immune cells and stomach bacteria has yet been reported. The present study investigated DEC205-mediated phagocytosis of H. pylori and the role of DEC205-positive macrophages in the human gastric mucosa. DEC205 mediated phagocytosis of H. pylori was detected immunocytochemically in PMA-stimulated macrophages differentiated from NOMO1 cells. Expression of DEC205 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from H. pylori-infected patients was analyzed following stimulation with H. pylori cell lysate. We found that anti-DEC205 antibodies inhibited phagocytosis of H. pylori. The number of cells double-positive for DEC205 and CD14 in human gastric mucosa was higher in H. pylori-infected patients. DEC205-positive macrophages invaded the extracellular space between epithelial cells within gastric pits. In addition, DEC205 mRNA expression was upregulated in human PBMCs stimulated with H. pylori lysate. These findings suggest DEC205-expressing macrophages are important for recognition of H. pylori in human gastric mucosa, which affects systemic immunity.

    Bacterial contamination of dental unit waterlines (DUWLs) was evaluated using ATP bioluminescence analysis and a conventional culture method. Water samples (N=44) from DUWLs were investigated for heterotrophic bacteria by culture on R2A agar, which gave counts ranging from 1.4×103 to 2.7×105 cfu/mL. The ATP bioluminescence results for DUWL samples ranged from 6 to 1189 relative light units and could be obtained within 1min; these correlated well with the culture results (r=0.727-0.855). We conclude that the results of the ATP bioluminescence assay accurately reflect the results of conventional culture-based testing. This method is potentially useful for rapid and simple monitoring of DUWL bacterial contamination.

    Vibrio vulnificus is the causative agent of primary septicemia, wound infection and gastroenteritis in immunocompromised people. In this study, signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM) was applied to identify the virulence genes of V. vulnificus. Using STM, 6,480 mutants in total were constructed and divided into 81 sets (INPUT pools); each mutant in a set was assigned a different tag. Each INPUT pool was intraperitoneally injected into iron-overloaded mice, and in vivo surviving mutants were collected from blood samples from the heart (OUTPUT pools). From the genomic DNA of mixed INPUT or OUTPUT pools, digoxigenin-labeled DNA probes against the tagged region were prepared and used for dot hybridization. Thirty tentatively attenuated mutants, which were hybridized clearly with INPUT probes but barely with OUTPUT probes, were negatively selected. Lethal doses of 11 of the 30 mutants were reduced to more than 1/100; of these, the lethal doses of 2 were reduced to as low as 1/100,000. Transposon-inserted genes in the 11 attenuated mutants were those for IMP dehydrogenase, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase, aspartokinase, phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine cyclo-ligase, malate Na (+) symporter and hypothetical protein. When mice were immunized with an attenuated mutant strain into which IMP dehydrogenase had been inserted with a transposon, they were protected against V. vulnificus infection. In this study, we demonstrated that the STM method can be used to search for the virulence genes of V. vulnificus.

    Since discovery of Helicobacter pylori, more than 30 species non-H. pylori Helicobacter spp. (NHPH) have been reported. Those NHPH were now classified into gastric Helicobacter spp. and enterohepatic Helicobacter spp.(EHS). Gastric NHPH show tight spiral and long shape in the gastric mucosa, and we can distinguish from H. pylori by light microscope. Some gastric NHPH may be zoonosis and cause gastritis in human. H. hepaticus and H. cinaedi belongs in EHS were detected in human diseases. H. hepaticus may be associated with hepatobiliary diseases in humans. Surprisingly, it was reported that H. cinaedi infection was associated with atrial arrhythmias and atherosclerosis. Many NHPH will be recognized as human pathogen in the future.

    <italic>Clostridium botulinum</italic> type B strain produces two forms of progenitor toxin, 16S and 12S. The 12S toxin is formed by association of a neurotoxin (NTX) and a non-toxic non-haemagglutinin (NTNH), and the 16S toxin is formed by conjugation of the 12S toxin with a haemagglutinin (HA). HA consists of four subcomponents designated HA1, HA2, HA3a and HA3b. When mice were immunized with formalin-detoxified NTX, 12S or 16S, a significantly greater amount of anti-NTX antibody (Ab) was produced in the mice injected with 16S than in NTX- or 12S-injected mice. Immunization with NTX mixed with HA1 and/or HA3b also increased the anti-NTX Ab production, whereas NTX mixed with HA2 did not, indicating that HA1 and HA3b have adjuvant activity. This was further confirmed by immunizing mice with human albumin (Alb) alone or Alb mixed with either HA1 or HA3b. When mouse-spleen cells were stimulated with NTX, 16S or different HA subcomponents, 16S, HA1, HA3b and the mixture of HA1 and HA3 significantly increased interleukin 6 (IL6) production compared with NTX alone. Transcription of IL6 mRNA was low after stimulation with NTX alone, but increased to 16S-stimulation levels when NTX was mixed with HA1 or HA3b. In flow cytometry using labelled Abs against CD3 and CD19, the percentage of CD19 cells was higher following stimulation with 16S or NTX mixed with HA1 or HA3b compared with stimulation with NTX. The percentage of CD3 cells remained unchanged. These results suggest strongly that HA1 and HA3b demonstrate adjuvant activity via increasing IL6 production.

    Of 11 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) prepared against the non-toxic component of type C Clostridium botulinum 16S toxin to clarify the function of the non-toxic component, seven recognised HA1, three recognised HA3b and one recognised HA2. Results of epitope mapping indicated that three of the seven anti-HA1 MAbs recognised the region between amino acid residues 121 and 140 and four recognised the three-dimensional structure of HA1. Three anti-HA3b MAbs recognised different regions between (approximately) amino acids 405-430, 180-270 and 275-297. The ability of these MAbs to interfere with binding of 16S toxin or non-toxic component, HA1 or HA3b to erythrocytes and to intestine tissue sections of guinea-pig was observed. MAbs against HA3b and HA2 did not inhibit 16S toxin binding to either erythrocytes or epithelial cells, whereas some MAbs against HA1 did inhibit binding. The seven anti-HA1 MAbs can be classified into four groups based on their binding inhibition activities. The anti-HA1 MAbs that inhibited the binding of 16S toxin to the epithelial cells also neutralised or reduced the oral toxicity in mice, indicating that HA may play an important role in the absorption of the 16S toxin from the small intestine.

    The cells of Helicobacter pylori were suspended in the medium containing 35S-methionine. After a heat shock of the cells at 42C for 5, 10, and 30min, the production of proteins was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Out of many proteins produced by the cells, only 66kDa protein production was dramatically increased by heat treatment. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of 66kDa protein was quite similar to that of 62kDa and 54kDa proteins previously suggested as heat shock protein (HSP) of H. pylori based on the reaction with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against HSP 60 family proteins produced by other bacteria. Therefore, it was concluded that H. pylori produces the 66kDa protein as its major heat shock protein which belongs to HSP 60 family.

    The serum antibody titers against oral streptococci were studied by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) both in patients with Behçet's disease (BD) and control groups. The patients with BD showed significantly higher antibody titers to S. sanguis strains 113-20, 114-23, and 118-1 which were isolated from patients with BD, in comparison with control groups. Also, the reactions of high-titered sera to the crude cell wall and soluble (or membrane) fractions of the 113-20 strain were observed by western blot test. The sera of the patients with BD demonstrated strong bands of approximately 36kDa, 82kDa, and 87kDa in the crude cell wall fractions, and many bands of 80kDa to 150kDa in the membrane fractions, indicating that these proteins are the ones leading the high antibody titers to this bacterium in the sera of patients with BD.

    A molecular chaperonin in mammals, heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) is constitutively expressed in the mitochondria at a low level and is rapidly up-regulated under stress. However, the role of HSP60 in the lymphoid tissues has not been well clarified. In the present study, expression of HSP60 was examined by flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry in normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells, reactive lymphoid tissues, and malignant lymphomas. HSP60 was found to be present constitutively at low levels in a fraction of resting T cells and most monocytes. The blastic change upon mitogen stimulation induced HSP60 at much higher levels in more T, B and NK cells. In normal lymphoid tissues, HSP60 was expressed preferentially in the cytoplasm of large-sized lymphoid cells and macrophages in the germinal centers and the interfollicular area.<br>In non-Hodgkin lymphomas strong expression of HSP60 was detected in most cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and grade 3 and NK/T cell lymphoma. No immunostaining was observed in low grade B-cell lymphomas, including follicular lymphoma, grade 1 and B-lymphoblastic lymphomas. HSP60 immunoreactivity was variable in T-cell lymphomas. Intense expression of HSP60 was observed in Reed-Sternberg cells in all cases of Hodgkin lymphoma.

    Capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed to detect immunoglobulin G and M antibodies to group A streptococcal (GAS) antigens, streptolysin O, streptokinase, and group A carbohydrate. The sensitivities and the specificities of the IgM capture ELISAs to each GAS antigen were high enough to distinguish the patients with GAS infections (diagnosed as GAS pharyngitis or scarlet fever) from the control groups (healthy people and patients with pharyngitis from whom GAS could not be isolated). On the other hand, the specificities of the IgG capture ELISAs were not very effective in diagnosis of GAS infections. When the capture ELISA and an indirect ELISA detecting IgM antibodies to group A carbohydrate were compared, false-positive reactions due to rheumatoid factor occurred in the indirect ELISA, but did not occur in the capture ELISA. These results indicate that the capture ELISA works better than the indirect ELISA in detecting the IgM antibody, and that the IgM capture ELISA to GAS antigen provides a rapid and highly reliable serodiagnosis for GAS infections employing only a single serum.

    本研究の目的は胃酸分泌抑制剤であるプロトンポンプ阻害薬(PPI)の服用により胃酸の殺菌作用が低下した状態で,歯周病原細菌であるPorphyromonas. gingivalisもしくはその代謝産物が腸内細菌叢へ与える影響を調査することである。健康なマウスでは経口投与された細菌はほとんどが胃酸で殺菌されるが,PPI投与により胃酸の殺菌作用が低下した状態ではP.gingivalisは胃を生菌として通過し遠位腸管まで到達できるかどうかを検討した。
    まずはPPIであるランソプラゾールのマウスへの経口投与が胃酸のpHをどの程度上昇させるかを検討するためにPPI投与後24時間後に安楽死させ切除した胃の内容物のpHを計測した。PPI投与群でも非投与群でもpHは2-3程度と差がなかった。これはマウスの餌の摂取制限ができないために胃内容物が多かったことが原因と考えられるため,今後はPPIの薬効の確認には血中ガストリン濃度の測定などで評価する必要がある。
    歯周病感染モデルではマウスに1週間PPIの経口投与を行った後にP.gingivalisを2日間経口投与し,24時間後に盲腸の糞便を回収した。回収した糞便から約10mg採取し変法GAMブイヨン寒天培地上で嫌気培養し得られた菌体から採取したDNAと,盲腸糞便から直接採取したDNAを用いてP.gingivalisを特異的に認識するプライマーを用いてのDNA量をリアルタイムPCR法を用いて評価したとこと,PPIの有無に関わらず盲腸内で生菌としては確認されなかったが,盲腸内からはP.gingivalis遺伝子を確認することができた。また大腸組織の病理学的評価においてはPPI投与群で非投与群に比べてP.gingivalis経口投与によると思われる腸管粘膜の炎症性細胞浸潤や腸管上皮の傷害などの炎症所見が重症化する傾向にあった。

    胃癌(intestinal type)は日本人に多いがんであり、その原因はHelicobacter pylori(ピロリ菌)の高い感染率に由来している。ピロリ菌感染は、その他にも胃炎や胃粘膜委縮を起こし、消化性潰瘍、MALTリンパ腫の原因になる。胃癌以外の疾患は除菌により治癒するものがあるが、胃癌は除菌のみでは治癒できない。高齢者は感染率が高く、除菌している人も多いが、除菌後でも胃癌を発症する人はいる。この除菌後の胃癌発症は、長期のピロリ菌感染による胃粘膜萎縮が治らないためと考えられる。また萎縮胃粘膜においては、胃の酸度が低下し、胃内が中性化することによって、他の常在菌の繁殖が起こってくる。これら常在菌の中には発癌物質を産生する硝酸塩還元菌が存在し、胃癌発症の要因となる可能性がある。これら硝酸塩還元菌の胃内分布と炎症や発癌における役割を研究する。ピロリ菌による胃粘膜萎縮が発癌物質であるN-ニトロソ化合物を産生する硝酸塩還元菌の胃粘膜での増加と関係している可能性があり、ピロリ菌感染による発がん機構の新しい原因が証明できる可能性がある。ピロリ菌感染の影響による硝酸塩還元菌の胃への定着と増加が証明されれば新しい概念を提唱できる可能性がある。1)ピロリ菌培養の時に同時に培養される常在菌を分離培養し、硝酸塩還元能を調べる。2)硝酸塩還元菌のDNAを抽出し16SrDNAの配列から菌種を同定する。3)硝酸塩還元菌の炎症反応との関係を、単球系培養細胞を使い検討する。4)細胞性免疫を抑制した、マウスモデルに投与し、発癌するか調べる。

    Helicobacter pylori is a well-known bacterial carcinogen in gastric cancer. The possible association between intestinal bacterial flora and colorectal cancer has been also most studied. The several oral bacteria species such as Fusobacterium nucleatum etc. have been frequently isolated from various cancer regions. However, the relationship between oral bacteria and cancer development remains inadequate. The aim of this study is to reveal direct or indirect carcinogenic potential in oral bacteria. The extracts of F. nucteatum was not mutagenic in the Ames test. Several Nitrate-reducing oral bacteria, including Actinomyces and Streptococcus were isolated from the Gastroscopy samples in the gastric precancerous state, which produce the main carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds. These bacteria showed the potential production of inflammatory mediators such as IL-8 and TNF-α with THP cells in the relation to mutagenesis. The genome analyses of oral bacteria to find oncoprotein CagA are ongoing.

    1) Th1 / 2 immunity and gastric cancer: An infected mouse model was created, and blood sampling was performed to monitor the antibody titer subclass. After confirming infection in all mice, cytokines were administered to each mouse to induce an immune response between Th1 and Th2. From the measurement results of the IgG1 / IgG2 subclass, and 20U administration is effective in inducing immunity for cytokine administration. In addition, it was found that cell-mediated immunity was suppressed and humoral immunity was predominant in the IL-10-administered group than in the IFN-γ-administered group.
    2) Cistatin A: We investigated whether Cystatin A was affected by the antigens used for stimulation during culture and various cytokines. PMA or GM-CSF / IL-4 stimulation reduced the expression of Cystatin A. The expression of Cystatin A was considered to be related to the activation of immune functions such as cytokine stimulation.

    Several microbiologic and epidemiologic studies have suggested an association between oral bacteria and systemic health such as diabetes, respiratory diseases and cardiovascular diseases. The HACEK organisms (Haemophilus species, Aggregatibacter species, Cardiobacterium hominis, Eikenella corrodens, and Kingella species) among oral bacteria are noted as the pathogens of infective endocarditis. The aim of this study is to determine the possible pathogenic factors of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and oral methanogenic Archaea on infective endocarditis, and to analyze clinical and microbiological characteristics of the patients with infective endocarditis. Cell surface enolase and RNA chaperone protein, Hfq in A. actinomycetemcomitans and group II chaperonin of oral methanogenic Archaea were further characterized. The antimicrobial activity of inhibitor for methionine aminopeptidase and vitamin K analogues were also examined as a candidate of new therapeutic agents.

    Expression of DEC205, which is antigen uptake receptor on macrophage, was increased in H.pylori infected patients with early gastric cancer. However mRNA of DEC205 was also increased in the patient without gastric cancer. Expression of Th1 cytokines was detected in lymphocyte stimulated with HSP60 from patients with gastric cancer. HSP60 stimulation and its response in T helper CD4 may be available for diagnosis or prediction of gastric cancer caused by H.pylori infection. On the other hand, HSP60 antibody may be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) induced by H.pylori infection.

    We have been studying functions of macrophage in Hefrcobacter pylori inffection. Because we think that acquired immunity may play important roles in the diseases caused by H. pylori infection. To investigate immunity of H.pylori infection, we have shown the H.pylori- HSP60 (heat shock protein 60 kDa) activates macrophage and it is useful antigen.
    We have shown some results supporting by this Grant.
    1) HSP60 stimulated and activated a macrophage though TLR2 and TLR4. IL8 was produced from the macrophage depending on MAPK and NE-〓B activation.
    2) Arteriosclerosis in Apo-E KO mouse was progressed by H. pylori infection. The pathology was associated with immunity to HSP60 and T helper 1.
    3) Patients with arteriosclerosis possessed antibody to peptides from H. pylori-HSP60. The peptides might be available for diagnosis of arteriosclerosis.
    4) DNA chip study indicated that DEC205 is an important receptor for macrophage activation in patients with gastritis caused by H pylori infection. We are now studying function of DEC205 on macrophage using NOMO-1 cell differenciated by PMA.

    1. Development of vaccine and immuno-strip for detecting toxin
    In order to prepare the safe and effective type C and D vaccines for animal botulism, the heavy chains (100 kDa) and their C-terminal (Hc, 50 kDa) and N-terminal (Hn, 50 kDa) half fragments were prepared as GST fusion proteins. Production level of Hc and Hn was quite higher than that of H. H and He showed good vaccine effects but that of Hn was quite low. GST fused-or GST-eliminated He preparation showed similar vaccine effect. Therfore, it was concluded that He with or without GST can be used as commercially effective vaccine. Immuno-strip method was prepared using polyclonal antisera against A, B, E, and F neurotoxins. They could detect approximately 1 ng of each toxin.
    2. Development of neurotoxin preparations for treating dystonia
    We found that HAI and HA3b, which are the subcomponents of HA, have adjuvant activity. Therefore, we tried to treat the patients with the neurotoxins rather than the progenitor toxins. We found that Type A and B neurotoxins can easily be purified by using a lactose gel column, and that they can be stocked in a deep freezer without reducing the toxin activity by mixing with 0.05% albumin (for type B) or 0.05% albumin plus 1% terehalose (for type A). When this preparation was used for the treatment of 18 patients with urinary incontinence caused by refractory idiopathic and neurogenic detrusor overactivity, 16 patients showed excellent improvement; it started within 1 week after injection in most cases and lasted 3 to 12 months.

    Clostridium botulinum type A to D hemagglutinin positive progenitor toxins (PTX) consist of three distinct components : neurotoxin (NTX), hemagglutinin (HA), and non-toxic non-HA (NTNH). The HA consists of four subcomponents designated HA1 (〜33kDa), 2 (〜17kDa), 3a (〜22kDa), and 3b (〜53kDa).
    We have established an easy procedure for purifying type B HA-positive PTX and NTX by employing an affinity gel column-linked lactose. By employing the purified type A to D toxins and their each HA subcomponents prepared as GST-fusion proteins, we have shown that HA, especially HA1 and HA3b, works as an adhesin in the attachment of HA-positive PTXs to the-microvilli of the upper small intestine as well as erythrocytes. Type A (and B) toxin bound to the galactose mainly via HA1, whereas type C (and D) bound to the sialic acid mainly via HA3b. By analyses of primary and tertiary structure of HA1 and HA3b, It became clear that HA1 has two β-trefoil domains like as lectin B-chain of the ricin, whereas HA3b has carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) of sialo-adhesin family (or Siglec family). In the binding and internalization tests with C HA-positive toxin and human colon carcinoma HT-29 cells, the toxin bound to glycoproteins with high molecular mass, and internalized within 4 min, but not if the cells were pretreated with neuraminidase, indicating that sialic acid of glycoprotein is the receptor for type C toxin and the toxin can internalize quickly into the cells. It was also found that both HA1 and HA3b have adjuvant activity.

    1.HSP60に対するヒト免疫系の反応性、とくにMALTリンパ腫患者リンパ球の反応性
    MALTリンパ腫患者では、HSP60に対する自己抗体ができることを報告しているが,この機序を解明するために、MALTリンパ腫患者リンパ球をGM-CSFとIL-4存在下にHSP60で刺激し,リンパ球の反応性を調べた。抗原刺激により,MALTリンパ腫患者のリンパ球はIL-4を産生するが、健常者や胃炎患者のリンパ球はIFN-γを多く産生した。またB細胞の抗原刺激に際してco-stimulatory signalとして働くCD4T細胞のCD40リガンド(CD40L)の発現が、MALTリンパ腫患者では増強した。H.pylori菌全体を使った抗原刺激では,胃炎患者とMALTリンパ腫患者でCD40Lの発現に差は認められなかった。これらの結果より、MALTリンパ腫患者ではHSP60に対するTh-2の液性免疫反応が強く誘導され、B細胞の増殖が起こることが判明した。
    2.HSP-60の末梢血並びにリンパ組織単核細胞における発現
    HSP60は末梢血中ではTリンパ球の一部と単球の大部分に発現し、マイトゲンで刺激すると,T.B.NK細胞における発現率と発現量が著しく増強した。反応性リンパ組織では、芽中心及び濾胞間のマクロファージとリンパ芽球の胞体内に発現していた。
    3.感染動物実験による宿主因子の解析
    マウスの系統によって、H.pylori感染後に発症する胃炎の程度が異なることが知られている。あらかじめ感染させたマウスに大腸菌のリコンビナント易熱性毒素をアジュバントとして、rHSP60を鼻腔より免疫した。Th-1優位なC57BL/6でもTh-2優位なBALB/Cマウスでも、HSP60を用いた局所免疫により、感染早期から胃炎が高率に発症することを認めた。またT細胞を活性化しやすいアミノ酸配列を含んだ領域を部分発現させたHSP60を免疫すると,胃炎の発症が強く誘導された。

    We have previously reported that heat shock protein 60kDa (HSP60) is an important antigen in the pathogenesis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. To investigate association with host immunity and HSP60, DC40 ligand (CD40L) and cytokine production in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from the patients were analyzed following stimulation with HSP60. PBMCs obtained from patients with gastritis and MALT lymphoma, and those from healthy volunteer were stimulated with recombinant-HSP60 or H. pylori cell fysate in the presence of cytokines (IL-4) and GM-CSF). The mRNA expression was also analyzed by a cDNA microarray containing 1100 genes. The expression of CD40L on the CD4 positive cells was increased in the PBMCs from patients with MALT lymphoma stimulated by cytokines and/or HSP60 antigens. The production of IL-4 in PBMCs cultures was increased in patients with MALT lymphoma ; however, the production of IFN-_γ was at low levels. A cDNA microarray analysis indicated increased mRNA levels of HLA-DR and integrin. In cases of low-grade MALT lymphoma, adaptive immune responses against HSP60 may be enhanced by host factors, such as antigen presentation and T cell activation, resulting in B cell proliferation, which can be demonstrated during H. pylori infection.
    To study immunological roles of HSP60 in H. pylori infection, we immunized HSP60 to H. pylori infected mice. Whole HSP60 and two partial regions of helicobacterial hsp60 were expressed as GST-fusion proteins. Three recombinant proteins were designated rHSPw, rHSP2, and rHSP4-5. rHSPw was expressed as whole hsp60 (MeT_1-Met_<545>). rHSP2 (Glu_<101>-Ser_<200>) contained a domainT cell epitope cluster (Lys_<159>-Tnr_<178>). The rHSP4-5 contained a domain existing in both T cell epilope cluster (Asp_<396>-Gly_<4l2>) and its upstream of region (Ser_<356>-Asp_<392>) in common between H. pylori and human hsp60. Recombinant heat-labile enterotoxin (rLT) of E. coli was also employed as adjuvant for nasal immunization. Three different mouse groups (BALB/c, C3H/He, C57BL/6) were injected 10^8 CRJ of live H. pylori (SS -1) at two times a week and kept in a clean isolator for 2 weeks. Those mice were immunized H. pylori lysate or rHSPs (10μg/mouse) with rLT (10μg/mouse) by injecting into nasal mucosa four times in 1 month. Mice were sacrificed at 1 momtn after last immunization, and then histopathology and antibodies were investigated. Mucosal immunization by H. pylori lysate and rHSPs induced severe gastritis in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. Inflammation grades in those two groups immunized by rHSP4-5 were highest in aft groups. Mucosal immunization by hsp60 accelerated production of IgG and IgA.
    These -results indicated that HSP60 was closely associated with H. pylori induced gastric inflammation.

    (1) 動物実験による宿主反応の検討
    胃十二指腸疾患の原因であるHelicobacter pylori感染の宿主反応について調べるため、各種感染にたいする免疫反応の異なるマウス(BALB/c,C57BL/6,C3H/He)に感染させ、経時的にその病理、抗体価、サイトカインを測定した。感染により誘導された胃炎は、C57BL/6最も頻度が高く、C3H/He,BALB/cの順であった。しかし、リンパ濾胞を伴う激しい炎症はC3H/Heの一部に認められた。抗体価は、全てのマウスで経時的に上昇していた。最も炎症の激しい炎症の認められた2匹のC3H/Heのサイトカインを調べたところ。一方はTh-2優位であり、もう一方はTh-1優位の傾向を認めた。これらの結果より、H.pyloriによる炎症の誘導および病原性には、宿主側の要因が深く関わっていると考えられた。
    (2) In vitro細胞傷害(熱ショック蛋白を介した細胞傷害の検討)
    胃のMALTリンパ腫は、H.pyloriの感染により発生したリンパ増殖性の疾患である。この患者は、HSP60が腫瘍性リンパ濾胞芽中心の細胞(抗原提示細胞)に発現している事、さらに血清中にHSP60に対する抗体が存在することを認めた。そこでH.pyloriのHSP60をクローニングし蛋白を発現させた。
    MALTリンパ腫のリンパ球を重症免疫不全マウス(SCIDマウス)に移植し菌を投与すると、潰瘍性病変が出現した。潰瘍の発生したマウスには、自己抗体とH.pylori反応性のT細胞が存在していた事から、抗体依存性細胞傷害の可能性が示唆された。

    We have detected three types of cholesteryl glucosides (CGs) in H.pylofl (HP) cultured in a serum-supplemented medium. The structures of the CGs were cholesteryl glucoside (CGL), acylated CGL (CAG), and phosphatidyl CGL (CPG).
    Firstly, we investigated bacterial growth in a serum-supplemented medium with shaking under microaerophlic conditIon using with a chamber (Concept plus, Ruskinn tech., UK). Under this condition, subculture and culture of HP can be done without exposing usual air.
    We investigated the lipid, especially CGs, compositions of HP in each bacterial growth phase under the condition mentioned above. In CGs, CGL and CAG were detected at all growth phases. However, little of CPG was detected at exponential phase. CPG was detected In spiral form bacteria of stationary phase, and its content dramatically increased at declining phase (phase of coccoid formation), whereas the content of phosphatidyl ethanolarnine, main phosphoilpid of HP, was dramatically decreased at declining phase. The metabolism of phosphate was appeared to be dramaticaliy changed after stationary phase in HP.
    We investigated the uptakes of sterols and those related compounds, and the synthesis of glucosides from those in a serum-free medium under the same condition mentIoned above. HP accumulated free cholesterol, ergosterol, stigmasterol, beta-sitosterol, and synthesize glucosides from those. However, HP did not accumulate cholesterol ester. Therefore, the structure of 3 beta-ol could be important for the accumulation of sterol. HP accumulated vitamin D3, cholecalciferol, but did not synthesize glucoside from it. For the synthesis of glucosides after the accumulation, the base structure of sterol would be important. Furthermore, vitamin D3 inhibited the growth of HP, and its MIC against HP In a serum-free medium was 12.5 mug/ml. The hydrophobic substances which are accumulated but not synthesized to glucosides such as vitamin D3 may inhibited the growth in HP.

    The type C and D botulinum strains were isolated from the ground of a cattle farm (a pasture) in Australia. The type C toxin was purified from one type C culture, and its antigenicity was analyzed by monoclonal antibodies. Based on the results of antigenicity and toxin-neutralization tests, it was concluded that the C-terminal of the toxin can be used as effective vaccine.
    The peptide (15 amino acid residues) which is conserved in the light chain components of any different types of botulinum toxins was synthesized, and the monoclonal antibodies against it were prepared in rats. Though two monoclonal antibodies reacting with any types of toxins were obtained, they did not neutralize the toxigenicity, indicating that this peptide can not be used as vaccine, but the monoclonal antibodies thus obtained can be used for diagnosis of botulism caused by any types of toxins.
