2. Helicobacter pylori - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicobacter_pylori

   Helicobacter pylori, previously known as Campylobacter pylori, is a gram-negative, flagellated, helical bacterium. Mutants can have a rod or curved rod shape that exhibits less virulence . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Its helical body (from which the genus name Helicobacter derives) is thought to have evolved to penetrate the mucous lining of the stomach ...

3. Timeline of peptic ulcer disease and Helicobacter pylori

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_peptic_ulcer...

   This is a timeline of the events relating to the discovery that peptic ulcer disease and some cancers are caused by H. pylori. In 2005, Barry Marshall and Robin Warren were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery that peptic ulcer disease (PUD) was primarily caused by Helicobacter pylori , a bacterium with affinity ...

4. Peptic ulcer disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peptic_ulcer_disease

   John Lykoudis, a general practitioner in Greece, treated people for peptic ulcer disease with antibiotics beginning in 1958, long before it was commonly recognized that bacteria were a dominant cause for the disease. [43] Helicobacter pylori was identified in 1982 by two Australian scientists, Robin Warren and Barry J. Marshall, as a causative ...

5. Helicobacter heilmannii s.s - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicobacter_heilmannii_s.s

   Helicobacter heilmannii s.s. (H. heilmannii s.s.) is a species within the Helicobacter genus of Gram negative bacteria. [1] Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is by far the best known Helicobacter species primarily because humans infected with it may develop gastrointestinal tract diseases such as stomach inflammation, stomach ulcers, duodenal ulcers, stomach cancers of the non-lymphoma type, and ...

6. Helicobacter suis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicobacter_suis

   Helicobacter suis (H. suis) is a species within the Helicobacter genus of Gram-negative bacteria. [1] Helicobacter pylori is by far the best known Helicobacter species, primarily because humans infected with it may develop gastrointestinal tract diseases such as stomach inflammation, stomach ulcers, duodenal ulcers, stomach cancers of the nonlymphoma type, and various subtypes of extranodal ...

7. Helicobacter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicobacter

   Helicobacter heilmannii sensu lato (i.e. H. heilmanni s.l.) is a grouping of non-H. pylori Helicobacter species that take as part of their definition a similarity to H. pylori in being associated with the development of stomach inflammation, stomach ulcers, [11] duodenum ulcers, [12] stomach cancers that are not lymphomas, and extranodal ...

8. Helicobacter heilmannii sensu lato - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicobacter_heilmannii...

   The current taxonomy of Helicobacter bacteria is somewhat complex and incomplete, with new species currently being considered as possibly belonging to this genus. [2] [6] [7] Within the Helicobacter genus, H. heilmannii s. l. is a group of Helicobacter species that are distinguished from H. pylori by being two- to three-fold larger in size (they are 4-10 micrometers in length and 0.5-0.8 ...

9. Infectious causes of cancer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_causes_of_cancer

   The mechanism by which H. pylori causes cancer may involve chronic inflammation, or the direct action of some of its virulence factors, for example, CagA has been implicated in carcinogenesis. [44] As reviewed by Chang and Parsonnet, [45] chronic H. pylori infection in the human stomach is characterized by chronic inflammation. [45]
