ABSTRACT
The vacuolated effect of Helicobacter (H. pylori) and its relationship to vacuolated cytotoxin antigen (VacA) were investigated by the method of cytotoxic test and SDS-pobyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Of the 62 clinical isolates, the broth culture filter (BCF) of 43 strains caused the Vero cell intracytoplasmically vacuolated. H. pylori strains were divided into H. pylori (Toxin+) group with vacuolated effect and H. pylori (Toxin-) group without vacuolated effect. The analysis of the BCF of H. pylori (Toxin+) and that of H. pylori (Toxin-) was studied by SDS-PAGE and Scan reader. A kind of protein with 87 ku molecular weight was recognized in the BCF of 30.23% (13/43) H. pylori (Toxin+) strains but in none of that of H. pylori (Toxin-) strains, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was a significant and concordant relationship between OD of the protein band with 87 ku molecular weight and titer of vacuolated activity of H. pylori (Toxin+) (r = 0.67 and P < 0.05 by linear regression analysis). H. pylori strains were divided into H. pylori (Toxin+) group with vacuolated effect and H. pylori (Toxin-) group without vacuolated effect. The vacuolated effect of H. pylori (Toxin+) was caused by the protein with 87 ku molecular weight (VacA).
