In order to investigate the interrelation between immunogenetic host and bacterial factors the T-cell receptor (TCR) polymorphism TCRBV6S1 A/B, HLA-DRB1 alleles and cagA status was analyzed in 380 unrelated German individuals. H. pylori infection with cagA-positive bacterial strains was significantly associated with peptic ulcer disease in the German cohort. Patients homozygous for the non-functional TCRBV6S1B allele and presenting with peptic ulcer disease showed no CagA-specific antibodies in the majority of cases. There was no association between HLA-DRB1 alleles and the CagA status of infected individuals, although certain alleles show significant association to the infection status in different populations.
为了研究免疫遗传宿主因素与细菌因素之间的相互关系,对380名无亲缘关系的德国个体的T细胞受体(TCR)多态性TCRBV6S1 A/B、HLA - DRB1等位基因和cagA状态进行了分析。在德国队列中,感染cagA阳性菌株的幽门螺杆菌与消化性溃疡病显著相关。携带无功能TCRBV6S1B等位基因纯合子且患有消化性溃疡病的患者,在大多数情况下未检测到CagA特异性抗体。HLA - DRB1等位基因与受感染个体的CagA状态之间没有关联,尽管某些等位基因在不同人群中与感染状态存在显著关联。
