Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Helicobacter pylori lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can divide highly-antigenic epitope-carrying one and weakly-antigenic epitope-carrying one. We found that weakly-antigenic epitope-carrying LPS enhanced Escherichia coli LPS-induced IL-8 production by upregulation of Toll-like receptor 4 expression in cooperation with host surfactant protein D, which specifically interacted with the weakly-antigenic LPS. The weakly-antigenic LPS-carrying H. pylori is more frequently found in gastric tumor than other gastroduodenal diseases. In this study, we did not observe relationship between the antigenicity of LPS and pathogenesis of H. pylori-related iron deficiency anemia.
