Helicobacter pylori Cytotoxin-Associated Gene A Activates the Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 Pathway In vitro and In vivo
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Persistent infection with Helicobacter pylori confers an increased risk for the development of gastric cancer. However, the exact mechanisms whereby this bacterium causes carcinogenesis have not been completely elucidated. Recent evidence indicates that aberrant activation of the signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway may play a role in gastric carcinogenesis. Therefore, we hypothesized that H. pylori infection modulates STAT3 signaling, favoring gastric cancer development. In epithelial cells infected with H. pylori, STAT3 was activated, as assessed by immunoblotting for phosphorylated STAT3, immunofluorescence of translocated STAT3, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, and luciferase activation in transfected cells. Activation was dependent on translocation but not phosphorylation of cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) in host cells. Activation seemed to be receptor-mediated because preincubation of cells with the interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor superantagonist sant7 or inhibition of gp130 by a monoclonal antibody prevented H. pylori–mediated STAT3 activation. However, activation was not related to autocrine activation by IL-6 or IL-11. CagA+ wild-type H. pylori, but not the noncarcinogenic cagA− mutant, activated STAT3 in gastric epithelial cells in vivo in the gerbil model of H. pylori–mediated gastric carcinogenesis. Collectively, these results indicate that H. pylori CagA activates the STAT3 signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo, providing a potential mechanism by which chronic H. pylori infection promotes the development of gastric cancer.

Helicobacter pylori, which induces gastritis and is related to gastric cancer, activates STAT3 in epithelial cells.
“Helicobacter pylori, which induces gastritis and is related to gastric cancer, activates STAT3 in epithelial cells (327).”
From IL-6 in inflammation, autoimmunity and cancer (2021) · cites this paper as [327]
The Abstract reports STAT3 activation in H. pylori-infected epithelial cells, and the Discussion identifies H. pylori as a major risk factor for gastric cancer. Our copy discusses gastric inflammation but does not explicitly state that H. pylori induces gastritis, so that part of the sentence is not verified. (LLM, conf=0.83)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
