Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative bacterium that is closely related with the pathogenesis of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric carcinoma as well as many extra-gastrointestinal tract diseases such as coronary heart disease, iron deficiency anemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and diabetes mellitus (DM). Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level is useful in diagnosing and monitoring DM. Recent studies showed that H. pylori is involved in the up-regulation of HbA1c level in DM patients through modulating the expression of leptin and ghrelin, whose interactions affect obesity, insulin sensitivity, glucose homeostasis and DM. Further studies on the association between H. pylori infection and HbA1c will certainly provide new prospects for early diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori-related DM and its complications.
H. pylori是一种定植在人胃黏膜的革兰阴性菌, 在发展中国家感染率很高, 与慢性胃炎、消化道溃疡、肠上皮化生、非典型增生、MALT淋巴瘤及胃癌的关系密切[11]. 近年来, H. pylori与胃肠外疾病之间的关系日益得到关注, 而关于H. pylori与DM的研究为数不多[12], 大致分以下几个方面.
