  • 본 연구에서는 개의 Helicobacter 균속 감염을 비침습적 방법으로 진단하기 위해 분변을 시료로한 PCR 검사법을 확립하고 그 효능을 검정하고자 하였다. 분변 PCR 분석은 분변에서 채취된 DNA에서 Helicobacter 균속의 16S RNA의 특이적인 영역에 반응하는 primer를 이용해 수행하였다. 분변 PCR분석법에 의한 결과와 위조직 검사 법 결과를 비교해 본 결과 분변 PCR분석법은 높은 특이도 (100%)와 민감도(96%)를 나타내었다. 도한 확립된 분볍 PCR분석법을 이용해 국내 애완결들의 위내 Helicobacter 균속 감염율을 조사한 결과 감염율이 72.1%로 나타났다. 이상의 결과 본 연구에서 확립한 분변 PCR 분석법은 개의 Helicobacter 균 감염을 진단할 수 있는 새로운 비침습적 진단방법으로 이용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.

  • The inhibitory effects of different Bifidobacterium spp. on the growth of Helicobacter pylori (HP) were investigated. A significant suppression of HP growth occurred only when HP was inoculated onto a petri dish containing 0.1 mg/ml of Bifidobacterium spp. When HP was separately cultured with B. breve K-110, B. catenulatum K-309, B magnum K-311, B. magnum K-321, and B. cuniculi K-513, the urease activity was also inhibited by these Bifidobacterium spp. Therefore, it appears that these Bifidobacterium spp. excrete a heat-labile inhibitory component for HP growth into the culture medium. Although most organic acids produced by the Bifidobacterium spp. inhibited the growth of HP, the HP growth was not inhibited by the physiological concentrations of organic acids produced in bifidobacteria-cultured media. Accordingly, these results suggest that some Bifidobacterium spp. may produce antibiotic-like compounds (bacteriocins).

  • This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of Helicobacter spp. in privately owned pet dog's oral cavity samples (saliva, dental plaque, vomitus) and fecal samples in Korea and to evaluate the potential route for transmission. Total 100 patients dogs attending one Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital were examined by Helicobacter genus-specific PCR assay and these dogs were divided into two groups whether they had gastrointestinal signs (vomiting, nausea and diarrhea) or not. The total detection rate of Helicobacter spp. by PCR in saliva, dental plaque and fecal samples was 23%, 1% and 68% respectively. The difference of prevalence with regarding the gastrointestinal sings was not significant. In vomitus, two of seven samples had positive results. These results suggested that Helicobacter spp. are present in the oral cavity although they were present in very low number and are not like to be normal oral flora of the oral cavity and Helicobacter spp. in dogs could be transmitted through oral-oral, gastrooral and fecal-oral route.

  • A 12-year-old, castrated male, mixed dog presented with a history of gradual abdominal distention for a year and anorexia recently, with abdominal radiographs showing a gastric pylorus distention. A solitary, pedunculated, heterogeneous mass arising from the mucosal layer in the pylorus with intact wall layers was identified during ultrasound and computed tomography. The gastric muscular layer was evenly thick. After surgical excision of the mass, histological examination confirmed hypertrophic pyloric gastropathy with polypoid growth and Helicobacter spp. infiltrating the gastric mucosal epithelium. This is the first reported diagnostic imaging case of hypertrophic pyloric gastropathy with Helicobacter spp. in a dog.

  • Several infectious agents are considered to be causes of cancer in human, mainly hepatitis B and C viruses, high-risk human pailloma viruses, Helicobacter pylori, Clonorchis sinensis, and Opisthorchis viverrini. Here we described the evident research and the association between Helicobacter spp. and biliary tract cancer particularly cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Global epidemiological studies have suggested that Helicobacter spp. are possible risk factors for biliary tract diseases. Molecular studies support a linkage of Helicobacter spp. with CCA development. H. pylori, H. bilis, and H. hepaticus, are found in CCA, but the most common species are H. pylori and H. bilis. The type of CCA are associated with Helicobacter spp. include extrahepatic CCA, and common bile duct cancer. Up to the present, however, the results from different regions, materials and methods, sub-sites of cancer, and controls have not been consistent, thus introducing heterogeneity. Therefore, a comparison between co-Helicobacter spp.-CCA in the countries with low and high incident of CCA is required to settle the question. Furthermore, clarifying variation in the role of Helicobacter species in this CCA, including pathogenesis of CCA through enhanced biliary cell inflammation and proliferation, is necessary.

  • 위내 Helicobacter 균속에 자연 감염된 개에서 삼중요법의 효과를 알아보기 위해 Helicobacter 균속에 자연 감염된 것으로 판명된 7두의 개를 대상으로 amoxicillin, metronidazole을 14일간 경구투여하였다. 삼중요법 실시에 따른 Helicobacter 균속 감염상태 변화를 평가하기 위해 투여 7일째, 14일째 그리고 투여 중지후 30일째의 위생검 조직에 대한 요소검사, Helicobacter 균속에 대한 중합효소 연쇄반응 검사와 함께 분변시료를 이용한 중합효소 연쇄반응 검사를 실시하였다. 삼중요법 14일째 위생검 조직의 요소검사에서는 7두중 6두가 음성이었으나 위생검조직과 분변시료의 중합효소 연쇄반응 검사에서는 각각 3두와 4두만이 음성이었다. 삼중요법 중지후 30일째 검사에서는 각 검사법이 모두 동일한 결과를 나타내었는데 7두중 3두에서 음성으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 위내 Helicobacter 균속에 자연 감염된 개에서 amoxicillin, metronidazole과 omeprazole을 이용한 삼중요법은 Helicobacter 균속 감염 정도를 낮추거나 때로는 완전 박멸할 수 있을 것으로 보여지기에 만성위염의 임상증상을 나타내는 개의 Helicobacter 균속 감염증에 적용할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

  • Prevalence of Helicobacter infection in pet dogs and positive relations between the presence of Helicobacter app. and gastritis were studied. Twenty-one dogs, which died of various disease, were referred from three animal hospitals and necropsied. Upon histopathological examination, Helicobacter-like organisms (HLO) were observed only in the gastric mucosa of 5 (23.5%) out of the 21 stomachs. The bacteria mainly colonized in the mucus, gastric pits, and the lumen of gastric glands. Regardless of HLO infection, there was mild to moderate lymphocytic infiltration in fundic and pyloric mucosa. Average gastritis scores of the group infected with HLO were 1.250${\pm}$0.214 and 1.833${\pm}$0.167 in the fundic and pyloric mucosa, whereas those of uninfected group were 1.000${\pm}$0.165 and 1.625${\pm}$0.239, respectively. Accordingly, we concluded that no association exists between HLO infection and gastritis.

  • 본 연구에서는 전통 가자미식해에서 분리한 LAB에 의한 H. pylori 억제효과를 살펴보았다. 가자미식해에서 분리한 40종의 LAB는 L. plantarum, L. brevis, Lc. mesenteroides, and W. paramesenteroides 등으로 확인되었다. 40종의 LAB중 liquid inhibition assay에 의해 H. pylori 억제효과가 있는 것으로 판단되는 10 종류의 젖산균을 선별하였다. 선별된 젖산균 배양액을 1%, 5%, and 10% 농도로 적용하였을 때 H. pylori 52, 51, e-53와 309에 대해서 생육 억제효과가 나타났다. LAB 배양 상등액의 pH를 7.0으로 조절하여 적용시켰을 LAB 10 종류 모두 5%와 10%의 농도에서 H. pylori 52와 LAB 7 종류의 10% 농도에서 H. pylori e-53에 대해 억제효과를 나타내었다. 그것은 또한 urease 활성을 억제시키는 영향도 나타내었다. 결과적으로 가자미식해에서 분리한 L. plantarum spp., L. brevis spp., Lc. mesenteroides spp., W. paramesenteroides spp. 등에 의해 H. pylori가 제균되거나 억제되는 효과를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.

  • Enterococcus faecium MJ-14, having strong antilisterial activity, was isolated from Korean fermented food, Meju. MJ-14 showed the same phenotypic characteristics, but different sugar utilization, as reference strain, E. faecium KCCM12118. It could utilize D-xylose, amygdaline, and gluconate, whereas E. faecium KCCM12118 could not. Optimal condition for bacteriocin production by E. faecium MJ-14 was at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0. Bacteriocin activity appeared in mid exponential phase and increased rapidly up to stationary phase. Activity was significantly promoted in MRS broth containing 3.0% glucose, 1.5% lactose, 2.0% peptone, or 1.5% tryptone. Bacteriocins effectively inhibited Enterococcus faecalis and Listeria spp. of Gram-positive bacteria, and Helicobacter pylori of Gram-negative bacteria, but did not inhibit yeasts and molds. They were stable against heat (for 30 min at $100^{\circ}C$), pH (3.0-9.0), long-term storage (for 60 days at 4 or $-20^{\circ}C$), and enzymatic digestion by catalase, proteinase K, papain, lysozyme, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and lipase, etc. Bacteriocin activity was completely inhibited by protease and pepsin, and 50% by ${\alpha}$-amylase. Studies on PCR detection of enterocin structural genes revealed bacteriocins are identical to enterocins A and B.
