【 要旨 】 Helicobacter pyloriはヒトの胃粘膜に生息し,さまざまなサイトカインやその関連物質産生を誘導する.IL-8, IL-1βなどのインターロイキン,TNF-α, IFN-γなどが産生され,Th 1型優位の免疫反応が惹起されて慢性胃炎が起こる.一方,Th 2型免疫反応は,胃炎を軽減させ,菌の生着,生育を抑制する.IL-8は,cagA遺伝子ではなく, cag-pathogenicity island (cag-PAI) 依存性にNF-κBなどの転写因子を活性化させ,好中球を胃粘膜に遊走させて胃炎を増悪させる.宿主側因子として,IL-1β, IL-1RN, TNF-α, IL-10のSNPがあり,低酸症や胃粘膜萎縮,および胃癌のハイリスク群が存在する.

[ Summary ] Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) colonizes the human gastric mucosa and induces a variety of cytokines and their related products. Inrerleukins (ILs) such as IL-8 and IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α and interferon (IFN)-γ etc. are produced, and Th 1-predominant immune response are elicited, resulting in chronic gastritis. On the other hand, the Th 2 immune responses attenuate gastritis and inhibit the colonization and growth of the bacteria. IL-8 activates transcription factors, such as nuclear factor(NF)-κB, not the cagA gene- but the cag-pathogenicity island (cag-PAI) -dependently, and recruits polymorphonuclear cells into the gastric mucosa to aggravate gastritis. As host factors, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL-1β, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1 RN), TNF-α, and IL-10 are known to produce a high risk of hypochlorhydria, gastric mucosal atrophy, and gastric cancer. This review describes the significance of a variety of cytokines and their related products induced by H. pylori and the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of the organism.
