More Details: Abstract H. pylori infection is gaining increasing attention, but detailed investigations into its impact on gastric microbiota remain limited. We collected gastric mucosa samples from 47 individuals divided into three groups: 1. Group HP: patients with initial positive H. pylori infection (25 cases); 2. Group ck: H. pylori-negative patients (14 cases); 3. Group DiffHP: patients with refractory H. pylori infection (8 cases). The samples were analyzed using 16S rDNA sequencing and functional prediction with PICRUSt. Group HP showed differences in flora distribution and function compared to Group ck, while Group DiffHP overlapped with Group HP. The abundances of Aeromonas piscicola, Shewanella algae, Vibrio plantisponsor, Aeromonas caviae, Serratia marcescens, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Microbacterium lacticum, and Prevotella nigrescens were significantly reduced in both Group DiffHP and Group HP compared to Group ck. Vibrio shilonii was reduced only in Group DiffHP compared to Group ck, while Clostridium perfringens and Paracoccus marinus were increased only in Group DiffHP. LEfSe analysis revealed that Clostridium perfringens and Paracoccus marinus were enriched, whereas Vibrio shilonii was reduced in Group DiffHP compared to Group ck at the species level. In individuals with refractory H. pylori infection, the gastric microbiota exhibited enrichment in various human diseases, organic systems, and metabolic pathways (amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, transcription, replication and repair, cell cycle pathways, and apoptosis). Patients with multiple failed H. pylori eradication exhibited significant changes in the gastric microbiota. An increase in Clostridium perfringens and Paracoccus marinus and a decrease in Vibrio shilonii appears to be characteristic of refractory H. pylori infection.
