RESUMO
Most gastric cancers (GC) are thought to be caused by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infections. However, there is mounting evidence that GC patients with positive H. pylori status have improved prognoses. The H. pylori-induced cellular immune reaction may inhibit cancer. In this study, BALB/c mice were immunized using recombinant plasmids that encode the ureF gene of H. pylori. Purified functional splenic CD3+ T lymphocytes are used to study the anticancer effects in vitro and in vivo. The immunological state of GC patients with ongoing H. pylori infection is mimicked by the H. pylori DNA vaccines, which cause a change in the reaction from Th1 to Th2. Human GC cells grow more slowly when stimulated CD3+ T lymphocytes are used as adoptive infusions because they reduce GC xenograft development in vivo. The more excellent ratios of infiltrating CD8+/CD4+ T cells, the decreased invasion of regulatory FOXP3+ Treg lymphocytes, and the increased apoptosis brought on by Caspase9/Caspase-3 overexpression and Survivin downregulation may all contribute to the consequences. Our findings suggest that in people with advanced GC, H. pylori pIRES2-DsRed-Express-ureF DNA vaccines may have immunotherapeutic utility.
