Abstract

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is considered to be closely related to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and characterized by the atrophy and/or intestinal metaplasia (IM) of the gastric mucosa in pathology. CAG is often regarded as the precancerous lesion of gastric cancer and H. pylori infection stimulates the development of atrophy and IM and the progression of gastric cancer through the persistent effect acting on the gastric mucosa, including releasing inflammatory factors such as Interleukin-8(IL-8). From the molecular biology perspective, growing evidence shows that H. pylori probably induce the expression of NF-κB, miR-204, miR-27a, hnRNPA2B1, and JARID1B, which play crucial roles in the progression of CAG into gastric cancer. In addition, H. pylori can increase Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and the co-infection will jointly increase gastric cancer risk. Furthermore, H. pylori induces cellular senescence and promotes atrophy progression and finally increases the gastric cancer risk. This review aims to explore the carcinogenic mechanisms of H. pylori related CAG in order to provide theoretical foundations for the pathogenesis mechanism and early detection and prevention of gastric cancer.

期刊介绍： Frontiers in Medicine publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research linking basic research to clinical practice and patient care, as well as translating scientific advances into new therapies and diagnostic tools. Led by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts, this multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide. In addition to papers that provide a link between basic research and clinical practice, a particular emphasis is given to studies that are directly relevant to patient care. In this spirit, the journal publishes the latest research results and medical knowledge that facilitate the translation of scientific advances into new therapies or diagnostic tools. The full listing of the Specialty Sections represented by Frontiers in Medicine is as listed below. As well as the established medical disciplines, Frontiers in Medicine is launching new sections that together will facilitate - the use of patient-reported outcomes under real world conditions - the exploitation of big data and the use of novel information and communication tools in the assessment of new medicines - the scientific bases for guidelines and decisions from regulatory authorities - access to medicinal products and medical devices worldwide - addressing the grand health challenges around the world
