Helicobacter pylori infection and diabetes mellitus are two independent common diseases. It is showed that the worsening glycemic and metabolic control increases the rates of Helicobacter pylori infections and Helicobacter pylori is shown as one of the common problems in diabetic patients with complaints of gastrointestinal diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence and era...

A slowly growing anaerobic Helicobacter species was isolated from the blood cultures of two human immunodeficiency virus-positive patients admitted to Westmead Hospital, Westmead, Australia, with fevers. The morphology of the isolates was consistent with Helicobacter cinaedi or Helicobacter fennelliae. The results of culture growth conditions, biochemical tests, gas chromatography data, ribotyp...

in order to improve simultaneous detection and identification of helicobacter genus in general and helicobacter pylori specifically and reduce the number of amplifications needed, we established a multiplex pcr. in this study, two pairs of primers: hcom1 and hcom2 specific for helicobacter genus, hicd1 and hicd2 specific for helicobacter pylori species were used. to determine the sensitivity of...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Helicobacter pylori infection has been suggested to be associated with atherosclerosis. The issue is still controversial. It is well known that abnormal lipid profile and oxidative stress are related to atherosclerosis and the measurement of carotid intima-media thickness. The aim of this study was to investigate carotid intima-media thickness and oxidative stress along with lip...

IMMUNOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF FLGE2 RECOMBINANT PROTEIN IN HELICOBACTER PYLORI ON TNF-A CYTOKINE PRODUCTION MACROPHAGE CELLS VITRO

The discovery of Helicobacter hepaticus and its role in hepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, typhlocolitis, and lower-bowel carcinoma in murine colonies was followed by the isolation and characterization of other Helicobacter spp. involved in enterohepatic disease. Colonization of mouse colonies with members of the family Helicobacteriaceae has become an increasing concern for the research comm...

Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterium that has been linked to peptic ulcer disease, gastric lymphoma, and gastric carcinoma. Apart from its well-demonstrated role in gastroduodenal diseases, some authors have suggested a potential role of Helicobacter pylori infection in several extra-intestinal pathologies including haematological, cardiovascular, neurological, metabolic, autoimmune...

Applications Of The Immune-Histochemical Technique For Diagnosis Helicobacter Pylori From Gastric Biopsy Samples

Helicobacter pylori infection, the most common chronic bacterial infection in the world, and an important cause of gastrointestinal disorders, may be involved in the pathogenesis of some extra-gastrointestinal disturbances, as well as an increase in blood levels of certain inflammatory markers. Anti-bacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori and anti-inflammatory properties of omega-3 fatty...
