- Helicobacter pylori induce a chronic inflammation in the human gastric mucosa characterized by increased production of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). The presence of natural killer (NK) cells in the human gastric mucosa and the ability of NK cells to produce IFN-γ suggest an important role of NK cells in the immune response directed towards H. pylori infection. Since NK cells previously have been shown to respond to bacterial components with IFN-γ production, we investigated the mechanisms for the recognition of H. pylori. We found that inhibition of MyD88 homodimerization resulted in decreased production of IFN-γ and that inhibition of the p38 MAPK decreased the production as well as the secretion of IFN-γ. Further studies indicated an involvement of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), in particular TLR2. Finally, we showed that the H. pylori specific membrane bound lipoprotein HpaA induced IFN-γ production from NK cells through recognition by TLR2. In conclusion, we suggest an involvement of TLR2 in the recognition of H. pylori by human NK cells and that HpaA is a TLR2 ligand important for recognition.
