[DOI: 10.11569/wcjd.v31.i14.571] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, a contagious disease, has affected approximately half of the global population. It is associated with the occurrence and development of many diseases, which seriously endangers human public health. Antibiotics play an important role in H. pylori eradication therapy, and the common regimens for H. pylori eradication contain one to three antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance is one of the main reasons for the failure of H. pylori eradication. Detection of antibiotic resistance can be helpful for individualized management, reduction of drug resistance, and improvement of H. pylori eradication. Methods to detect antibiotic resistance of H. pylori primarily consist of traditional drug sensitivity tests and molecular biology methods, such as polymerase chain reaction and its related techniques, DNA sequencing, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and gene chip. This paper reviews the recent advances in approaches for detection of antibiotic resistance of H. pylori.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading cause of global mortality but also a cancer whose footprint is highly unequal. This review aims to define global disease epidemiology, critically appraise strategies of prevention and disease attenuation, and assess how these strategies could be applied to improve outcomes from GC in a world of variable risk and disease burden. Strategies of primary prevention focus on improving the detection and eradication of the main environmental risk factor, Helicobacter pylori. In certain countries of high incidence, endoscopic or radiographic screening of the asymptomatic general population has been adopted as a means of secondary prevention. By contrast, identification and targeted surveillance of individuals with precancerous lesions (such as intestinal metaplasia) is being increasingly embraced in nations of low incidence. This review also highlights existing knowledge gaps in GC prevention as well as the role of emerging technologies for early detection and risk stratification.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infects approximately 50% of the world's population and is considered the major etiological agent of severe gastric diseases, such as peptic ulcers and gastric carcinoma. Increasing resistance to standard antibiotics has now led to an ever-decreasing efficacy of eradication therapies and the development of novel and improved regimens for treatment is urgently required. Substantial progress has been made over the past few years in the identification of molecular mechanisms which are conducive to resistant phenotypes as well as for efficient strategies to counteract strain resistance and to avoid the use of ineffective antibiotics. These involve molecular testing methods, improved salvage therapies, and the discovery of novel and potent antimicrobial compounds. High rates of prevalence and gastric cancer are currently observed in Asian countries, including Japan, China, Korea, and Taiwan, where concomitantly intensive research efforts were initiated to explore advanced eradication regimens aimed at reducing the risk of gastric cancer. In this review, we present an overview of the known molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and discuss recent intervention strategies for H. pylori diseases, with a view of the research progress in Asian countries.

Development and evaluation of a simple PCR assay and nested PCR for rapid detection of clarithromycin-resistant Helicobacter pylori from culture and directly from the biopsy samples in India. Gut Pathog 2023; 15:7. [PMID: 36782212 PMCID: PMC9925366 DOI: 10.1186/s13099-023-00530-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Eradication of Helicobacter pylori provides the most effective treatment for gastroduodenal diseases caused by H. pylori infection. Clarithromycin, a member of the macrolide family, still remains the most important antibiotic used in H. pylori eradication treatment. But the increasing prevalence of clarithromycin resistant H. pylori strains due to point mutations in the V region of the 23S rRNA, poses a great threat in treating the ailing patients. So, we aimed for PCR-mediated rapid detection of the point mutation at 2143 position of 23S rRNA gene in H. pylori that is relevant to clarithromycin resistance from culture and simultaneously from biopsy specimens to avoid the empirical treatment. RESULTS Newly developed PCR assay using DNA of pure culture detected point mutation in 23S rRNA gene in 21 (8.04%) of 261 clinical strains tested. The agar dilution method showed that all these 21 strains were resistant to clarithromycin indicating the perfect match of the PCR based results. Additionally, the sequencing study also identified the A to G mutation at 2143 position in 23S rRNA gene of the resistant strains only. Consequently, the newly developed Nested-ASP-PCR dealing directly with 50 biopsy specimens demonstrated 100% sensitivity and specificity with the findings of agar dilution method taken as Gold standard. Bioinformatics based analysis such as accessibility analysis and dot plot clearly stated that the base pairing probability has increased due to mutation. Computational studies revealed that the point mutation confers more stability in secondary structure due to conversion of loop to stem. Furthermore, interaction studies showed binding affinity of the CLR to the mutant type is weaker than that to the wild type. CONCLUSION This assay outlines a rapid, sensitive and simple approach to identify point mutation that confers clarithromycin resistance as well as clarithromycin sensitive strains, providing rapid initiation of effective antibiotic treatment. Additionally, it is simple to adopt for hospital based diagnostic laboratories to evaluate the degree of regional clarithromycin resistance from biopsy specimens itself. Furthermore, in silico studies provide evidence or a signal that the prevalence of clarithromycin resistance may rise in the near future as a result of this point mutation.

Abstract
Background Knowledge of global clarithromycin (CLA)-resistant rates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is crucial for decision of the most appropriate eradication therapies with good clinical outcomes. Therefore, this review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the global prevalence of the CLA resistance in H. pylori to provide some guidance for selecting the first-line antibiotics. Method A comprehensive search was performed for relevant literature until April 2021 in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases. Freeman-Tukey double arcsine transformation was performed to estimate the weighted pooled prevalence of resistance. Results The meta-analysis included 248 articles. The prevalence of CLA-resistant H. pylori was 27.53% (95% CI [25.41-29.69]). The heterogeneity between reports was significant (I2 = 97.80%, P < 0.01). The resistance rate increased from 24.28% in 2010-2017 to 32.14% in 2018-2021 (P < 0.01). Iran, with 38 articles, has the most report. Nevertheless, Switzerland, Portugal, and Israel had the highest resistance rates (67.16%, 48.11%, and 46.12%, respectively). The heterogeneity between the continents and the antimicrobial susceptibility methods also interpreted standard guidelines and breakpoints was insignificant (P > 0.05). Conclusion Overall CLA resistance rate was 27.53%, worldwide. The difference in CLA resistance rate among the included studies can be due to several reasons such as differences in antibiotic prescription rates in various geographic areas, use of different breakpoints or inaccurate criteria in performed studies, and the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori antibiotic resistance is a serious concern in China, where it severely influences treatment for H. pylori infection. To overcome this, it is essential to apply personalized therapies based on local or individual data on antibiotic-resistant phenotypes or genotypes. We conducted a large-scale multi-center study with a retrospective cross-sectional observational design to investigate the antibiotic-resistant phenotypes and genotypes of H. pylori in China. Strains were isolated from the gastric biopsy samples of H. pylori-infected patients from five different regions in China. The strains were tested for antibiotic-resistant phenotypes and genotypes, and the agreement between the two was assessed. In total, 4242 H. pylori strains were isolated and cultured, with an 84.43% success rate. The primary and secondary antibiotic resistance rates of H. pylori were 37.00% and 76.93% for clarithromycin, 34.21% and 61.58% for levofloxacin, 2.20% and 6.12% for amoxicillin, 1.61% and 3.11% for furazolidone, 1.18% and 3.31% for tetracycline, and 87.87% and 93.48% for metronidazole, respectively. The dual-resistance patterns for metronidazole/clarithromycin, metronidazole/levofloxacin, and clarithromycin/levofloxacin were 43.6%, 38.4%, and 26.1%, respectively. Clarithromycin- and levofloxacin-resistant H. pylori phenotypes and genotypes showed satisfactory agreement. Based on these findings, clarithromycin- and levofloxacin-resistant genotype testing could partially replace traditional antibiotic susceptibility testing in China. Continuous monitoring and personalized treatments based on individual and local H. pylori antibiotic-resistance data remain necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The drug resistance rate of clinical Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) isolates has increased. However, the mechanism of drug resistance remains unclear. In this study, drug-resistant H. pylori strains were isolated from different areas and different populations of Chinese for genomic analysis.
AIM To investigate drug-resistant genes in H. pylori and find the genes for the early diagnosis of clarithromycin resistance.
METHODS Three drug-resistant H. pylori strains were isolated from patients with gastritis in Bama County, China. Minimal inhibitory concentrations of clarithromycin, metronidazole, and levofloxacin were determined and complete genome sequencing was performed with annotation. Hp1181 and hp1184 genes were found in these strains and then detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The relationships between hp1181 or hp1184 and clarithromycin resistance were ascertained with gene mutant and drug-resistant strains. The homology of the strains with hp26695 was assessed through complete genome detection and identification. Differences in genome sequences, gene quantity, and gene characteristics were detected amongst the three strains. Prediction and analysis of the function of drug-resistant genes indicated that the RNA expression of hp1181 and hp1184 increased in the three strains, which was the same in the artificially induced clarithromycin-resistant bacteria. After gene knockout, the drug sensitivity of the strains was assessed.
RESULTS The strains showing a high degree of homology with hp26695, hp1181, and hp1184 genes were found in these strains; the expression of the genes hp1184 and hp1181 was associated with clarithromycin resistance.
CONCLUSION Hp1181 and hp1184 mutations may be the earliest and most persistent response to clarithromycin resistance, and they may be the potential target genes for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of clarithromycin resistance.

Abstract
Background It has not been fully confirmed whether the detection of Helicobacter pylori resistance gene mutation can replace antibiotic drug sensitivity test to guide the clinical individualized treatment. Therefore, we have studied this aspect and discussed the application value of antibiotic sensitivity gene test. Materials and Methods The biopsy specimen of gastric mucosa from the patients examined by endoscopy and positive for rapid urease test were collected continuously for histopathological analysis, H. pylori culture, antibiotic drug sensitivity test (E-test drug sensitivity test), and antibiotic sensitivity gene test (high-throughput nucleotide sequencing). The participants received triple plus bismuth solution eradication treatment (esomeprazole 20 mg, amoxicillin 1000 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, and bismuth potassium citrate 220 mg, twice daily for 14 days) for follow-up, and the eradication effect was determined. Results The 551/602 subjects, who met the inclusion criteria, were subjected to culture for H. pylori and antibiotic drug sensitivity determination; among them 506 were cultured successfully. The results showed that the resistance rates of H. pylori were 38.9% for clarithromycin and 31.0% for levofloxacin. In 489 H. pylori strains, the mutations were detected in clarithromycin and levofloxacin resistance genes, indicating the genotype resistance. The resistance genes of clarithromycin and levofloxacin were consistent with phenotype resistance with respect to sensitivity (81.2% and 69.7% for clarithromycin and levofloxacin, respectively) and specificity (88.9% and 93.7% for clarithromycin and levofloxacin, respectively). The eradication rate of H. pylori in the clarithromycin-resistant group was significantly lower than that in the sensitive group (ITT: 52.1% vs 85.0%, P < 0.001). Conclusion A correlation was established between the resistance genes of clarithromycin and levofloxacin and their phenotypic resistance and clinical efficacy. The detection of H. pylori resistance genes has a good clinical application prospect.

Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 2021; 40:1599-1608. [PMID: 33646449 DOI: 10.1007/s10096-021-04188-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2020] [Accepted: 02/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
In China, there is a high prevalence of antibiotic-resistant Helicobacter pylori infections in the population. The aim of the study was to assess a new ARMS-PCR test for detection of H. pylori clarithromycin resistance (CR) and quinolone resistance (QR) mutations and evaluate the spectrum of antibiotic resistance in patients from three Chinese provinces. Sanger sequencing and multiplex ARMS-PCR were used to detect H. pylori CR and QR bacteria in gastric biopsy samples. Among the 1,182 patients enrolled with gastritis, 643 (54.4%) were positive for H. pylori. Of these, 371 (57.7%) had antibiotic-resistant strains, comprising 236 (63.6%) with a single drug antibiotic-resistant strain and 135 (36.4%) with multiple drug-resistant strains. Following Sanger sequencing analysis of 23S rRNA and gyrA gene for mutations (antibiotic resistance markers), rates of CR, QR, and multidrug resistance (CR and QR) were 19.9, 12.0, and 25.8%, respectively. The 23S rRNA CR mutation A2143G (286, 96.9%) and the gyrA QR mutations C261A (85, 31.5%) and G271A (71, 26.3%) were common. Benchmarking against Sanger sequencing results, multiplex ARMS-PCR test had a high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for detection of CR (96 and 93%), QR (95 and 92%) and multidrug resistance (95 and 95%). Based on our findings, the high incidence of single and multiple antibiotic resistance requires the routine checking of antibiotic resistance in all patients with suspected H. pylori infections. Multiplex ARMS-PCR is a simple and rapid test that can be now used for more efficient treatment of H. pylori infections and reduces the misuse of antibiotics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Helicobacter pylori (HP) culture for diagnosing HP infection is time-consuming and technologically complex. This study evaluated the clinical significance of gastric mucosal gene chip technology in the rapid diagnosis of HP infection and detection of drug resistance in children. METHODS Patients (between the age of 2.5 and 16.0 years old) manifesting gastrointestinal symptoms were enrolled in this study. HP culture of gastric mucosa and drug sensitivity test were performed. A gene chip of gastric mucosa was used to detect the presence of HP infection, some single nucleotide polymorphisms in HP drug resistance genes, or associated gene mutation. DNA sequencing was investigated and compared with the gene chip test results. RESULTS Out of 267 cases, HP culture was positive in 169 cases and negative in 98 cases. HP detection by the gene chip method was positive in 208 cases and negative in 59 cases. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the gene chip technology for diagnosing HP infection were 96.1, 85.0, and 93.6%, respectively. HP resistance gene locus using the gene chip showed the main mutation locus of clarithromycin to be 2143A/G, levofloxacin at locus GyrA 91 and GyrA 87, and amoxicillin at PBP1 556ser. Concordance rates between gene chip and DNA sequencing for VacA-S/M, 16S rRNA, 23S rRNA, and GyrA were greater than 95%, and that of PBP1 was greater than 82%. CONCLUSION Gastric mucosal gene chip technology can be used for rapid diagnosis and drug resistance detection of HP infection in children.

Gut Pathog 2020; 12:35. [PMID: 32670416 PMCID: PMC7350683 DOI: 10.1186/s13099-020-00373-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Helicobacter pylori bacterium is a major cause of gastritis. With increasing use of antibiotics to treat infections, mutation resistant strains have emerged in most human populations. To effectively treat patients to help resolve infections, the clinician needs information on the antibiotic susceptibility profile of the infection. Therefore, a rapid and accurate test is required to provide this information. To address this issue, we designed and validated a real time multiplex ARMS-PCR assay for rapid detection of highly prevalent H. pylori clarithromycin and levofloxacin resistance mutations. The aim of the study was to evaluate the analytical and diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of ARMS-PCR, using direct Sanger sequencing of the known resistance mutations as the gold standard. Results In preliminary studies using a defined number of plasmids with clarithromycin and levofloxacin resistance mutations, the analytical sensitivity of our ARMS-PCR assay was 50 plasmid copies, equating to around 50 bacterium in a gastric biopsy sample. In terms of specificity, the assay was highly specific for the targeted resistance mutations. The assay was also able to reliably and efficiently detect heteroresistance of clarithromycin and levofloxacin mutations, even at a disproportional ratio of 1:1000. From the analysis of 192 samples with suspected H. pylori infections, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the assay was very high for detection of clarithromycin resistance (100% and 100%), levofloxacin resistance (98.04% and 95.04%) and clarithromycin and levofloxacin double resistance (100% and 96.91%). Amongst the 74 patients diagnosed antibiotic resistance bacteria, 23 (31.1%) had clarithromycin resistance, 21 (28.4%) had levofloxacin resistance and 30 (40.5%) had double resistance. From sample receipt to results, our single tube assay could be routinely completed in under 2 h. Conclusions Our assay demonstrated high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for detection of clarithromycin and levofloxacin resistant H. pylori. Based on proven accuracy, together with high efficiency, scalability and low cost, our assay has useful clinical utility for rapid diagnosis of clarithromycin and levofloxacin resistant H. pylori infections. Our assay results will provide patients with a clear diagnosis, enabling the treating clinician to administer the most effective antibiotic regimen to help the clear the infection.

Abstract
With the aim of detecting low frequency of drug resistant mutation T790M against wild-type sequences, we reported a two-dimensional signal analysis strategy by combining a three locked nucleic acids (LNAs)-modified probe (LP15-3t) and an α-HL nanopore. The specific hybridization of the LP15-3t probe with the T790M generated unique long two-level signals, including characteristic blocking current and characteristic dwell time. Due to the significant dwell time difference (114.2-fold) and the blocking current difference ranging from 81% to 96%, this two-dimensional signal analysis strategy can simultaneously distinguish T790M sequences with a sensitivity of 0.0001% against wild-type sequences. The LOD of T790M was 0.1 pM. This high discrimination capability would have great potential in the detection of rare mutation sequences and the early monitoring of clinical outcome of NSCLC patients with TKI drug resistance.

Abstract
Endoscopic imaging of the stomach is improving. In addition to narrow band imaging, other methods, for example, blue light imaging and linked color imaging, are now available and can be combined with artificial intelligence systems to obtain information on the gastric mucosa and detect early gastric cancer. Immunohistochemistry is only recommended as an ancillary stain in case of chronic active gastritis without Helicobacter pylori detection by standard staining, and recommendations to exclude false negative H. pylori results have been made. Molecular methods using real-time PCR, droplet digital PCR, or amplification refractory mutation system PCR have shown a high accuracy, both for detecting H. pylori and for clarithromycin susceptibility testing, and can now be used in clinical practice for targeted therapy. The most reliable non-invasive test remains the 13 C-urea breath test. Large data sets show that DOB values are higher in women and that the cut-off for positivity could be decreased to 2.74 DOB. Stool antigen tests using monoclonal antibodies are widely used and may be a good alternative to UBT, particularly in countries with a high prevalence of H. pylori infection. Attempts to improve serology by looking at specific immunodominant antigens to distinguish current and past infection have been made. The interest of Gastropanel® which also tests pepsinogen levels was confirmed.

Abstract
This review summarizes important studies regarding Helicobacter pylori therapy published from May 2018 to May 2019. The main themes that emerge involve studies assessing the efficacy of bismuth-based regimens. While in recent years the efficacy of bismuth-based quadruple therapy as a second-line therapy has been clearly established, there is now substantial evidence that it is the best performing first-line therapy. Antibiotic resistance was again intensely studied this year, and a clear and dramatic increase in resistance is noted for clarithromycin and levofloxacin; most notably, it may not be possible to support these therapies in most regions of the world much longer without testing. The utility of vonoprazan as an alternative to proton-pump inhibitor therapy, especially in resistant and difficult to treat groups, has also been considered in greater detail this year, as well as means of supporting and enhancing adherence to therapy. Several studies showed that the diversity of gut microbiota was significantly altered shortly after H pylori eradication. However, the diversity was restored to pre-treatment state after 2 months in patients treated with triple therapy. More studies are warranted to assess the long-term changes of gut microbiota after H pylori eradication.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of detecting Helicobacter pylori clarithromycin resistance in gastric mucosa using the amplification refractory mutation system combined with quantitative real-time PCR (ARMS-PCR). Gastric mucosal specimens (150) were collected from patients who were unsuccessfully treated for H. pylori eradication. Each specimen was divided into 2 samples. One sample was used to extract genomic DNA and detect any gene mutations of H. pylori produced by ARMS- PCR. Sequencing was used to assess the accuracy of this method. The other sample was used to culture H. pylori. The E-test minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was used to assess clarithromycin resistance. The results were compared with a paired chi-square test to validate the coincidence rate among the 3 methods. The coincidence rate between the sequencing and ARMS-PCR results was 98.7%, thus verifying the accuracy of ARMS-PCR. E-tests detected 144 clarithromycin resistance cases, including 45 sensitivity cases; the resistance rate was 70%. The coincidence rate between the results of the E-test and ARMS-PCR was 97.1%, and no significant difference between the 2 methods was observed. ARMS-PCR is a simple and fast method that has high sensitivity and specificity and can be used to detect the clarithromycin resistance of H. pylori in gastric mucosa. ARMS-PCR is expected to be used to study drug resistance mechanisms and use in assays of individual therapies for H. pylori eradication.
