RESUMO

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a bacterium which chronically infects the stomach of approximately half the world's population, is a risk factor for the development of gastric cancer (GC). However, the underlying mechanism whereby H. pylori infection induces GC development remains unclear. Intermittent injection of the H. pylori cytotoxin-associated gene A antigen (CagA) protein into its host cell inhibits nuclear translocation of BRCA1/BRCA2, DNA repair proteins involved in the development of breast cancer/ovarian cancer. Interestingly, hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome is associated with GC development. Here, we aimed to clarify the molecular link between H. pylori infection, BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants (PVs), GC and higher GC incidence in HBOC families. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed data from Japanese patients undergoing precision treatment using cancer genomic medicine. Results: We found a higher GC incidence in HBOC families having germline pathogenic variants (GPVs) of BRCA1/2 (2.95% vs. 0.78% in non-HBOC families). Next, we found that 96.1% of H. pylori-infected patients received cancer genomic medicine for advanced GC, and > 16% advanced GC patients had gBRCA2 PVs. Furthermore, expressing wild-type BRCA1/2 in Gan mice (a mouse model of human GC) inhibited GC development. Thus, gBRAC1/2 PVs and H. pylori infection synergistically increase the risk of GC development. Conclusion: Our study highlights the need to investigate the potential of therapeutic agents against BRCA1/2 PVs to avoid the development of GC in HBOC families. In addition, our results suggest that poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors could potentially inhibit GC development and progression with gBRCA1/2 PVs.
