ABSTRACT: Recent documentations about sepsis as a systemic inflammatory response and inefficiency of some antimicrobial treatments in immunological disordersoutline that any intervention modifying the immune response with therapeutic intent, will be rational. Helicobacter Pylori (H.pylori), with major role in etiopathogenesis of duodenum peptic ulcer and gastric lymphoma, exerts itʼs immunomodulatory properties with long time intestinal colonization and protection against several certain inflammatory disorders. Due to theunclearness ofthis pathogenimmunomodulatory effects on whole blood cells culture, the aim of this study is evaluation of H.pylori whole body immunomodulatory effectson whole blood cells culture. In this study, after H.pyloriisolation from a pathological positive biopsy specimen, it was cultured in Brucella Blood Agar. Then, bacteria was co-cultured with whole blood cells in RPMI-1640 for 24h with CO2 incubation. At last, TNF-alpha and TGF-beta concentrations of supernatants were assayed by quantative ELISA. Finally, non-parametric tests were measured out for data analysis. Our results showed upregulation of TGF-betaand TNF-alphasecretion, exposure toH.pylori (p value 0.017 and 0.018, respectively) compared to their untreated culture. These data show that immune response of H.pylori maypromote pro and anti-inflammatory responses. It seems that clinical applications of cytokines secretion, may be a promising window for further investigation leading to improvement of immune related diseases.
