Human stomach is the only known natural habitat of Helicobacter pylori (Hp), a major bacterial pathogen that causes different gastroduodenal diseases. Despite this, the impact of Hp on the diversity and the composition of the gastric microbiota has been poorly studied. In this study, we have analyzed the culturable gastric microbiota of 215 Malaysian patients, including 131 Hp positive and 84 Hp negative individuals that were affected by different gastric diseases. Non-Hp bacteria isolated from biopsy samples were identified by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry based biotyping and 16SrRNA sequencing. The presence of Hp did not significantly modify the diversity of the gastric microbiota. However, correlation was observed between the isolation of Streptococci and peptic ulcer disease. In addition, as a first report, Burkholderia pseudomallei was also isolated from the gastric samples of the local population. This study suggested that there may be geographical variations in the diversity of the human gastric microbiome. Geographically linked diversity in the gastric microbiome and possible interactions between Hp and other bacterial species from stomach microbiota in pathogenesis are proposed for further investigations.
Gastric microbiota and Helicobacter pylori in Indonesian population
Helicobacter, 2020
Background: The profile of gastric mucosal microbiota has not yet been described in the Indonesian population where the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori is low. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study analyzing 16S rRNA of 137 gastric biopsy specimens. We analyzed the association between gastric microbiota, H. pylori infection, and gastric mucosal damage. Result: Among 137 analyzed samples, 27 were H. pylori-positive and 110 were H. pylori-negative based on culture, histology, and 16S rRNA gene analysis. Significantly lower α-diversity parameters, including Pielou's index, was observed in H. pylori-infected individuals compared with noninfected individuals (all P < .001). Among H.

Helicobacter pylori Infection and Gastric Microbiota
Euroasian Journal of Hepato-Gastroenterology, 2020
Owing to its strong acid production, the stomach was known to be a bacteria-free organ for many years. On the other hand, the presence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and other acid-resistant microbiota that are to persist in the stomach challenged this. It is now recognized that the existence of H. pylori and non-H. pylori species have been linked to the improvement of gastric disease; despite this, there is little published data on the interaction of gastric bacterial flora and the resultant effect on gastric health. The stomach has a unique microbiota including five major phyla, such as Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Fusobacteria and Bacteroidetes. These phyla are identified in both H. pylori-infected and uninfected persons. The resident gastric microflora may mediate the role of H. pylori in the gastric diseases. This article aims to review previous studies that examine the impact of H. pylori infection and the effect of resident gastric microbiota on gut health and disease conditions.
Gastric microbiome changes in relation with Helicobacter pylori resistance
PLOS ONE
Introduction Inadequate antimicrobial treatment has led to multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, including Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), which one of the notable pathogens in the stomach. Antibiotic-induced changes in the microbiota can negatively affect the host. This study aimed to determine the influence of H. pylori resistance on the diversity and abundance of the stomach microbiome. Methods Bacterial DNA was extracted from biopsy samples of patients presenting dyspepsia symptoms with H. pylori positive from cultures and histology. DNA was amplified from the V3-V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene. In-vitro E-test was used to detect antibiotic resistance. Microbiome community analysis was conducted through α-diversity, β-diversity, and relative abundance. Results Sixty-nine H. pylori positive samples were eligible after quality filtering. Following resistance status to five antibiotics, samples were classified into 24 sensitive, 24 single resistance, 16 double resistance, 5 triple r...

Background: Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human stomach of approximately 50% of the world's population, and increases the risk of several gastric diseases. The goal of this study is to compare the gastric microbiota in pediatric patients with and without H. pylori colonization. Methods: We studied 51 children who underwent gastric endoscopy because of dyspeptic symptoms (18 H. pylori positive and 33 negative). Gastric biopsies were obtained for rapid urease test, culture, histology and DNA extraction. H. pylori was quantified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and the gastric microbiome studied by V4-16S ribosomal RNA gene high-throughput sequencing. Results: Bacterial richness and diversity of H. pylori-positive specimens were lower than those of negative, and both groups were clearly separated according to beta diversity. Taxonomic analysis confirmed that H. pyloripositive subjects had a higher relative abundance of Helicobacter genus (66.3%) than H. pylori-negative subjects (0.45%). Four phyla (proteobacteria, bacteroidetes, firmicutes and actinobacteria) accounted for >97% of all reads in both groups. Within proteobacteria, gamma-and betaproteobacteria were the most abundant for H. pylori-negative patients, whereas epsilonproteobacteria was for H. pylori positive. H. pylori-positive patients were associated with low body mass index. In the group of underweight patients (body mass index, <18.5), there were 46.1% of H. pylori-positive patients compared with 24% in the nonunderweight group (P = 0.049). Patients with active superficial gastritis in H. pylori-positive patients had the lowest alpha diversity (P = 0.035). Conclusions: We characterized the gastric microbiota for the first time in children with and without H. pylori and observed that when H. pylori is present, it tends to dominate the microbial community. In the H. pylori-negative patients, there was more relative abundance of gammaproteobacteria, betaproteobacteria, bacteroidia and clostridia classes and a higher bacterial richness and diversity.

Helicobacter pylori is a late-in-life human pathogen with potential early-life benefits. Although H. pylori is disappearing from the human population, little is known about the influence of H. pylori on the host's microbiota and immunity. Studying the interactions of H. pylori with murine hosts over 6 months, we found stable colonization accompanied by gastric histologic and antibody responses. Analysis of gastric and pulmonary tissues revealed increased expression of multiple immune response genes, conserved across mice and over time in the stomach and more transiently in the lungs. Moreover, H. pylori infection led to significantly different population structures in both the gastric and intestinal microbiota. These studies indicate that H. pylori influences the microbiota and host immune responses not only locally in the stomach, but distantly as well, affecting important target organs.
Systematic review: gastric microbiota in health and disease
Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2020
Background: Helicobacter pylori is the most infamous constituent of the gastric microbiota and its presence is the strongest risk factor for gastric cancer and other gastroduodenal diseases. Although historically the healthy stomach was considered a sterile organ, we now know it is colonised with a complex microbiota. However, its role in health and disease is not well understood. Aim: To systematically explore the literature on the gastric microbiota in health and disease as well as the gut microbiota after bariatric surgery. Methods: A systematic search of online bibliographic databases MEDLINE/EMBASE was performed between 1966 and February 2019 with screening in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Randomised controlled trials, cohort studies and observational studies were included if they reported next-generation sequencing derived microbiota analysis on gastric aspirate/tissue or stool samples (bariatric surgical outcomes). Results: Sixty-five papers were eligible for inclusion. With the exception of H pyloriinduced conditions, overarching gastric microbiota signatures of health or disease could not be determined. Gastric carcinogenesis induces a progressively altered microbiota with an enrichment of oral and intestinal taxa as well as significant changes in host gastric mucin expression. Proton pump inhibitors usage increases gastric microbiota richness. Bariatric surgery is associated with an increase in potentially pathogenic proteobacterial species in patient stool samples. Conclusion: While H pylori remains the single most important risk factor for gastric disease, its capacity to shape the collective gastric microbiota remains to be fully elucidated. Further studies are needed to explore the intricate host/microbial and microbial/microbial interplay. | 583 RAJILIC-STOJANOVIC eT AL.
