  1. 1. Helicobacter pylori : bacterial adhesion and host response

    Author : Farzad Olfat; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Communicable diseases; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar;

    Abstract : The gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori infects more than half of the population worldwide. H. pylori manage to establish persistent infection, which would be life-long if not treated. In order to establish such an infection, this pathogen has to deal with the host immune system. READ MORE

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Campylobacter; Helicobacter pylori; PCR; mRNA; hybridization; flow cytometry; HpaA; urease; NAP;

    Abstract : Background and Aim: Different Campylobacter species and Helicobacter pylori are common causes of gastrointestinal infections that may result in diarrhea and chronic gastritis, respectively. The overall aim of this thesis was to develop novel methods for identification, differentiation and characterization of these bacteria. READ MORE

  4. 4. Characterisation of surface traits of Helicobacter pylori and their role in the infectious process

    Author : Christoffer Petersson; Roland Möllby; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The surface appendages of bacteria determine the initial contact with host cells. Characterisation of functional organisation and spatial distribution of adhesive traits of outer membrane components of Gram-negative bacteria is a key issue in studies of the parasite-host cell interaction.
