Helicobacter pylori: bacterial factors and interaction with the epithelial cells.
نویسنده
چکیده
Helicobacter pylori has been recognized as a major cause of most of the diseases of the stomach. These diseases are preceded by lesions of gastritis induced by H. pylori. This long-standing infection gives us a very good model of interaction between a bacterium and its host. We will review the direct and indirect effects of H. pylori.

متن کاملRole of Helicobacter pylori on differential expression of angiogenic markers in gastric adenocarcinoma
Animal studies showed that male gastric tissues respond more rapidly to Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection but the possible mechanisms remained unclear. There is no data about gender specific activity of Androgen receptor (AR) as an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in gastric cancer and its interactions with H.pylori and angiogenesis in both genders. To compare the pathogenesis o...

متن کاملRole of autophagy associated with Helicobacter pylori CagA and VacA toxins in gastric cancer
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium that has been introduced as a cause of mucosal inflammation and gastric cancer. The most important pathogenic factors are VacA and CagA, which are associated with increased disease severity in clinical strains. Autophagy is a protected lysosomal degradation pathway degrading cytoplasmic content and is important in host...
متن کاملThe Helicobacter pylori urease B subunit binds to CD74 on gastric epithelial cells and induces NF-kappaB activation and interleukin-8 production.
The pathogenesis associated with Helicobacter pylori infection is the result of both bacterial factors and the host response. We have previously shown that H. pylori binds to CD74 on gastric epithelial cells. In this study, we sought to identify the bacterial protein responsible for this interaction. H. pylori urease from a pool of bacterial surface proteins was found to coprecipitate with CD74...
