ABSTRACT
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a resident bacterium in the stomach that accounts for 75% cases of gastric cancer. In this review, we comprehensively studied published papers on H. pylori vaccines using Google Scholar and NCBI databases to gather information about vaccines against H. pylori. Considering the pivotal roles of the enzyme urease (in production of NH3 and neutralization of the acidic medium of the stomach), cytotoxin-associated gene A, and vacuolating cytotoxin A proteins in H. pylori infection, they could be the best candidates for the construction of recombinant vaccines. The outer membrane porins (Hop), blood group antigen-binding adhesin (BabA), sialic acid-binding adhesin (SabA), and outer inflammatory protein A, play significant roles in binding of bacterium to human gastric tissues, and because binding is the first step in bacterial fixation and colonization, these antigens also can be considered as suitable candidates for designing vaccines. Likely, other significant bacterial antigens, such as NapA (chemotactic factor for recruitment of human neutrophils and monocytes to the site of infection), duodenal ulcer promoting protein A (to promote duodenal ulcer), and Hsp60 (as a molecular chaperon for activation of urease enzyme), can be used in the construction of subunit vaccines. New vaccines in use currently, such as DNA vaccines and subunit vaccines, can efficiently replace the dead and attenuated vaccines. Nonetheless, the results show that urease enzyme is most used compared with bacterial components in the designing and construction of recombinant vaccines. The BabA and SabA antigens belong to the outer membrane porins family in H. pylori and are required for binding and fixation of the bacterium to the human gastric tissues.
