Correlation between Interleukin-17, High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Pepsinogen in <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Infected Gastritis

Gastritis is an inflammatory process in the gastric mucosa and submucosa caused by <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> (<i>H. pylori</i>). The infection modulates immune components, such as interleukin (IL) 17, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and pepsinogen. This study aim...

description Gastritis is an inflammatory process in the gastric mucosa and submucosa caused by <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> (<i>H. pylori</i>). The infection modulates immune components, such as interleukin (IL) 17, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and pepsinogen. This study aimed to determine the relationship between IL-17, hsCRP and pepsinogen in <i>H. pylori</i> infected gastritis. This observational cross-sectional study was conducted at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou General Hospital Manado from May-July 2022. Measurement of blood sample levels of IL-17, hsCRP, pepsinogen I, pepsinogen II and pepsinogen I/II ratio. Spearman’s statistical test was used to determine correlations between these variables. This study involved 48 patients aged 21–64, with a majority of females (67%). IL-7 had a positive correlation with pepsinogen I (r = 0.292; <i>p</i> = 0.044) and pepsinogen II (r = 0.288; <i>p</i> = 0.047) in <i>H. pylori</i> infected gastritis. Meanwhile, IL-17 with pepsinogen I/II ratio, hsCRP with pepsinogen I, pepsinogen II, pepsinogen I/II ratio and IL-17 with hsCRP did not show a significant correlation (<i>p</i> > 0.05). There was a correlation between IL 17 to pepsinogen I and pepsinogen II in gastritis infected with <i>H. pylori</i>, suggesting the importance of these early markers of inflammation in determining the severity of gastric mucosal inflammation in pylori-infected patients.
