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.
