11. Effects of nitric oxide on gastric acid secretion in human gastric mucosa : functional and morphological studies
Abstract : Hydrochloric acid (HCI) is secreted in high amounts by parietal cells in the human gastric mucosa and the resulting low pH constitutes an important factor for creating a suitable environment for the digestion. The normal gastric mucosa is equipped with an arsenal of protective mechanisms against the extreme chemical environment which the gastric acid creates. READ MORE

12. Genetic adaptations of Helicobacter pylori during gastric disease progression
Abstract : Helicobacter pylori colonizes the stomachs of approximately half of all humans. In the absence of treatment, H. pylori can persist throughout the life of the host. Although most infected individuals are asymptomatic, a significant proportion develops peptic ulcer disease, chronic atrophic gastritis (ChAG) or gastric adenocarcinoma. READ MORE

13. Gastric acid secretion and gut peptides : mechanisms involved in inflammatory response
Abstract : The regulation of gastric acid secretion is complex and involves endocrine, paracrine, and neurocrine mechanisms. Among these, the interconnecting cross-talk between different gut peptides is an important part in the control of acid secretion. READ MORE

14. Multifaceted adhesion properties of Helicobacter pylori in promotion of gastric disease
Abstract : Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative spiral-shaped bacteria that resides in the gastric mucosa and adheres to the epithelial lining of the human stomach. H. pylori adhesion mediates inflammation of the epithelium, which can lead to more severe diseases such as chronic active gastritis and gastric carcinoma. READ MORE

15. Helicobacter pylori binding to gastric mucins and host glycosylation changes after inoculation
Abstract : Helicobacter pylori may cause gastritis, gastric/duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. During infection, most H. pylori are found in the gastric mucus layer, but some are attached to, or have penetrated, epithelial cells. The aim of this study is to characterize the binding of H. READ MORE
