In silico Analysis of Virulence, Resistance Genes and Phylogeny of Helicobacter pylori Strains from Different Continents

Determination of Helicobacter pylori virulence-associated genes in duodenal ulcer and gastric biopsies

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori or Hp) has been strongly associated with the peptic ulcer diseases, chronic gastritis, ulcers, and gastric cancer. Genes associated with pathogenicity have been designated for H. pylori, and some of them appear to be related to more severe clinical consequences of the infection. The present study was conducted to determine cagA, vacA, cagE, iceA1, oipA...

PCR and RFLP Analysis for Identification and Typing of Helicobacter pylori Strains from Gastric Biopsy Specimens

Genetic Diversity and Drug Resistance of Helicobacter pylori Strains in Isfahan, Iran

Objective(s) Resistance to antimicrobial agents, particularly metronidazole and clarithromycin, is frequently observed in Helicobacter pylori and may be associated with treatment failure. This resistance rate varies according to the population studied. The aim of this study was to assess the pattern of antimicrobial resistance of H. pylori isolates from dyspeptic patients in Isfahan. Material...

synthesis of sulfides from alcohols and thiols in solvent-freeconditions and deoxygenation of sulfoxides

کاتالیست یک سنتز جدید برای تیواترها توصیف شده است. واکنش الکل ها با آریل، هتروآریل و آلکیل تیو ل ها درحضور 1،3،5- تری آزو- 2،4،6- تری فسفرین-2،2،4،4،6،6 هگزاکلراید ((tapc به عنوان یک کاتالیست موُثر، بازده های خوب تا عالی از تیواترها را حاصل می کند. علاوه براین، واکنش تحت شرایط بدون فلز و بدون حلال پیش می رود، بنابراین یک مکمل جالب برای روش های شناخته شده سنتز تیواترها ارائه می دهد. یک مکانیسم ا...

Rapid PCR detection of Helicobacter pylori-associated virulence and resistance genes directly from gastric biopsy material.

We have developed a PCR-based method to detect macrolide resistance and the virulence gene cagA in Helicobacter pylori within 24 h, thereby improving the lengthy process of culture-based approaches. Total DNA was prepared directly from stomach biopsy specimens. The procedure proved to be rapid and reliable and could be utilized for diagnostic purposes.
