Beta-sitosterol-beta-D-glucoside and its aglycone (the major constituent of the seed oil of Hippophae rhamnoides L.) were investigated for their antigastroulcerative activity in rats. Two experimental gastric ulcer models were selected: chronic acetic acid-induced ulcers and cold stress-induced ulcers. Both the glucoside and its aglycone showed antiulcerative activity in chronic acetic acid-induced gastric ulcer models, and their effects were at least comparable to the effects of wishupin in combination with cimetidine. The effect of aglycone appears better than the glucoside's. Glucoside also showed visibly antiulcerative effects on cold stress-induced ulcers, but wishupin combined with cimetidine did not have such effects.

Gastroendoscopic biopsy specimens from 366 patients were stained with HE, Warthin-Starrys or Giemsa and mucin histochemical methods. Positive rate of Helicobacter pylori (HP) was 73.8% in chronic gastritis. Positive rates of HP in gastric ulcer disease were 88.2%, 91.9%, and 11.1% at the near and distant mucosa of ulcer and in duodenitis, respectively. Positive rates of HP in duodenal ulcer disease were 81.5%, 24.6% and 7.2% at the pyloric-antral area and at the near and distant mucosa of duodenal ulcer, respectively. The number of HP in active inflammation was higher than that in inactive inflammation (P < 0.05). The HP almost lived in the neutral mucin. There was no statistical significant difference between near and distant mucosa of ulcer (P > 0.05). HP might play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic gastritis, and it might aggravate the peptic ulcer disease.

The human TFF3 (trefoil factor 3) DNA fragment was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from human fetal placenta cDNA. The gene was cloned into the Pichia pastoris expression vector pPIC9K containing AOX 1 promoter and alpha-factor leader sequence. Multi-copies insertion transformants were screened on G418 plates. After the induction by 2% methanol for 48 hours, the expression of dimeric hTFF3 came up to 45% of total proteins in medium, as identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot assay. The recombinant protein was further purified by S-Sepharose, Q-Sepharose ion-exchange chromatography and Sephacryl-S-100 gel filtration chromatography to the 95% purity, as shown by densitometric scanning. The N-terminus and molecular weight of the recombinant hTFF3 was in good agreement with the native hTFF3. The recombinant protein was proved to have good biological activity of preventing rats from the gastric ulcer induced by hydrochloric acid.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the most common pathogens in human and it is closely related to gastrointestinal diseases. It is essential for us to understand the transmission process of H. pylori to prevent its spreading. The oral cavity has been proposed as a reservoir for gastric H. pylori, which has been detected by culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in both dental plaque and saliva. Some researchers have proposed H. pylori in oral cavity may play an important role in its transmission and reinfection. Oral-oral or fecal-oral transmission are thought to be the most possible transmit way. This review will discuss the evidence for the role of the oral cavity in the transmission of H. pylori, the difficulties encountered in addressing this topic and possible directions for future research. Oral H. pylori may also play a role in the diagnosis and prevention of deceases related to H. pylori such as gastritis, gastric ulcer and gastric carcinoma. The recent progresses in this area are also reviewed. Moreover, we also discussed the relationship between oral H. pylori and oral deceases like periodontal disease and oral ulcer.
