In our laboratory, the transcriptomes and miRnomes of AGS cells infected with H. pylori have been profiled, and an miRNA-mRNA network has been constructed. MicroRNA 671-5p is upregulated during H. pylori infection of AGS cells or of mice. In this study, the role of miR-671-5p during infection has been investigated. It has been validated that miR-671-5p targets the transcriptional repressor CDCA7L, which is downregulated during infection (in vitro and in vivo) concomitant with miR-671-5p upregulation. Further, it has been established that the expression of monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) is repressed by CDCA7L, and that MAO-A triggers the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Consequently, miR-671-5p/CDCA7L signaling is linked to the generation of ROS during H. pylori infection. Finally, it has been demonstrated that ROS-mediated caspase 3 activation and apoptosis that occurs during H. pylori infection, is dependent on the miR-671-5p/CDCA7L/MAO-A axis. Based on the above reports, it is suggested that targeting miR-671-5p could offer a means of regulating the course and consequences of H. pylori infection.</p>","PeriodicalId":19795,"journal":{"name":"Pathogens and disease","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9466067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mice with myeloid cell specific miR-155 deficiency were generated to study the in vitro response of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs), alveolar macrophages (AMs) and peritoneal macrophages (PMs) to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and the in vivo response after intranasal or intraperitoneal challenge with LPS or infection with Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae via the airways. MiR-155-deficient macrophages released less inflammatory cytokines than control macrophages upon stimulation with LPS in vitro. However, the in vivo inflammatory cytokine response to LPS or K. pneumoniae was not affected by myeloid miR-155 deficiency. Moreover, bacterial outgrowth in the lungs was not altered in myeloid miR-155-deficient mice, but Klebsiella loads in the liver of these mice were significantly higher than in control mice.

In vitro, animal, and human studies also established additional correlations, such as between C. pneumoniae and atherosclerosis and between C. trachomatis and ovarian cancer. As part of their survival and pathogenesis strategies as obligate intracellular bacteria, Chlamydia spp. modulate all three major types of epigenetic changes, which include deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation, histone post-translational modifications, and microRNA-mediated gene silencing. Some of these epigenetic changes may be implicated in key aspects of pathogenesis, such as the ability of the Chlamydia spp. to induce epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, interfere with DNA damage repair, suppress cholesterol efflux from infected macrophages, act as a co-factor in human papillomavirus (HPV)-mediated cervical cancer, prevent apoptosis, and preserve the integrity of mitochondrial networks in infected host cells.

One of the fields of treatment is the use of probiotics, probiotics are commonly defined as viable microorganisms (yeasts or bacteria) that can positively affect the health of their hosts. They are used in foods, notably fermented milk products, and medicine-related products. The development of new probiotic strains is aimed at more active advantageous organisms.

A number of lactobacilli types can produce hydrogen peroxide as well. The presence of hydrogen peroxide-induced low pH can prevent the growth of several other microorganisms. The vaginal flora of BV cases can modify by replacing the Lactobacillus species with a high density of anaerobic bacteria (i.e. Mobiluncus sp.

More vaginal infections are treated with medications, while there is a possibility of recurrence and chronic infection because of the adverse effects on the indigenous lactobacilli.
