The effects of sodium sulfite on Helicobacter pylori by establishing a hypoxic environment.
    Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 2023, 07-01, Volume: 470

    Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is an obligate microaerobion and does not survive in low oxygen. Sodium sulfite (SS) reacts and consume oxygen in solutions. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of SS on H. pylori. The effects of SS on oxygen concentrations in solutions and on H. pylori in vivo and in vitro were examined, and the mechanisms involved were explored. The results showed that SS decreased the oxygen concentration in water and artificial gastric juice. In Columbia blood agar and special peptone broth, SS concentration-dependently inhibited the proliferation of H. pylori ATCC43504 and Sydney strain-1 in Columbia blood agar or special peptone broth, and dose-dependently decreased the number of H. pylori in Mongolian gerbils and Kunming mouse infection models. The H. pylori was relapsed in 2 weeks withdrawal and the recurrence in the SS group was lower than that in the positive triple drug group. These effects were superior to positive triple drugs. After SS treatments, the cell membrane and cytoplasm structure of H. pylori were disrupted. SS-induced oxygen-free environment initially blocked aerobic respiration, triggered oxidative stress, disturbed energy production. In conclusion, SS consumes oxygen and creates an oxygen-free environment in which H. pylori does not survive. The present study provides a new strategy and perspective for the clinical treatment of H. pylori infectious disease.

Development and evaluation of a new growth medium for Helicobacter pylori.
    FEMS immunology and medical microbiology, 2009, Volume: 56, Issue:1

    The present study was aimed at modifying the original formulation of Commercial Eugon agar (CEA) to develop a new H. pylori growth medium. Initial studies were carried out to determine the number of H. pylori colonies recovered on in-house H. pylori agar (IHPA), IHPA without L-cysteine and sodium sulfite (IHPA-NC), IHPA without L-cysteine (IHPA-C), IHPA without sodium sulfite (IHPA-N) and CEA as the control. Significant differences (P < 0.001) in the number of colonies recovered were observed between IHPA-N, IHPA-NC and IHPA-C. Incorporation of sodium sulfite decreased the number of colonies recovered, indicating that sodium sulfite was inhibitory to H. pylori growth. Removal of L-cysteine reduced the number of colonies recovered, suggesting that L-cysteine is necessary for the growth of H. pylori. In the subsequent study, incorporation of K(2)HPO(4) further increased the number of colonies recovered compared with IHPA-N (P < 0.001), and 0.25% (w/v) of K(2)HPO(4) yielded the highest numbers of colonies (P < or = 0.04). Finally, thirty other H. pylori clinical isolates were evaluated for their growth in the IHPAP-N, a new medium consisting of 1.5% (w/v) pepticase, 0.5% (w/v) peptone, 0.4% (w/v) sodium chloride, 0.03% (w/v) L-cysteine, 0.55% (w/v) dextrose, 0.25% (w/v) K(2)HPO(4) and 1.5% (w/v) agar. The number of colonies recovered in IHPAP-N was significantly (P < 0.005) higher than that of CEA. IHPAP-N with 0.25% K(2)HPO(4) and without sodium sulfite were adequate solid media for the growth of H. pylori.
