  2. 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

    Author : Niamh Roche; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Helicobacter pylori; F1C fimbriae; Escherichia coli; glycosphingolipids; microbial adhesion; mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate glycosphingolipid interactions of the human pathogens Helicobacter pylori and F1C-fimbriated uropathogenic Escherichia coli. Of particular interest were interactions of H. pylori to complex gangliosides, the role played by H. READ MORE

  5. 3. Neutrophil recruitment in H. pylori induced inflammation: characterization of regulatory factors
