| Research Abstract |
To examine correlation between nitric oxide (NO) generation and Helicobacter pylori infection, in vitro experiment and in vivo experiment using Mongolian gerbil were performed. Nitrite was shown to indicate stronger bactericidal effect on H. pylori than nitrate. There was no significant difference in the number of H. pylori colonized between nitrate treated and untreated gerbils. Concentrations of nitrate and nitrite in plasma and gastric juice were significantly higher in nitrate-treated gerbils than those in untreated ones. Cystic dilatation score was significantly lower in nitrate-treated gerbils than that in untreated gerbils. These results suggest that uptake of nitrate-containing food might regulate inflammatory changes of gastric mucosa following H. pylori infection.
