Aim: To examine the binding activity of Helicobacter pylori to cultured gastric epithelial cells using flow cytometry.
Materials And Methods: We evaluated the adherence of 15 H. pylori strains to cultured gastric cancer (MKN45) cells by flow cytometric analysis. Other bacterial strains were also analysed for their adherence to MKN45 cells. In addition, we examined the effect of fetuin on the adherence of H. pylori to MKN45 cells.
Results: H. pylori strains adhered to MKN45 cells at rates of between 49 and 93.7%, with a mean of 75.3%. In contrast, the rates of Escherichia coli, Shigella flexneri, Vibrio cholerae and Yersinia enterocolitica adherence to MKN45 cells were 69.1, 5.9, 11.7 and 33.1%, respectively. Fetuin had no inhibitory effect on the adherence of H. pylori to MKN45 cells in the flow cytometric analysis.
Conclusions: A flow cytometric analysis using MKN45 cells proved to be an objective and sensitive method for evaluating the adherence of H. pylori, showing close adherence between this organism and gastric epithelial cells.

Background: Gastric cancer poses a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Improved visualization of tumor margins and lymph node metastases with tumor-specific fluorescent markers could improve outcomes.
Methods: To establish orthotopic models of gastric cancer, one million cells of the human gastric cancer cell line, MKN45, were suspended in 50 μl of equal parts PBS and Matrigel and injected into the nude mouse stomach with a 29-gauge needle.

Olive oil and table olives are considered staples of the Mediterranean diet and have been associated with various health benefits. Literature reports that the final composition of the olive drupe is greatly affected by varietal and agronomic factors, each contributing to a different degree. To that end, the objective of the study was the evaluation of the contribution of different agronomic conditions applied to two Greek olive varieties (Koroneiki, Mastoidis) using a holistic approach of in vitro methods.

Objective: To investigate the role of heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS6ST2) in gastric cancer (GC).
Methods: HS6ST2 expression in GC and adjacent normal gastric mucosa was first detected via immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. The correlation between the expression level of HS6ST2 and clinicopathological parameters were observed.
