| comparative virulence of in vitro-cultured primate- and pig-associated helicobacter suis strains in a balb/c mouse and a mongolian gerbil model. | helicobacter suis (h. suis) is the most prevalent gastric non-h. pylori helicobacter species in humans. this bacterium mainly colonizes the stomach of pigs, but it has also been detected in the stomach of nonhuman primates. the aim of this study was to obtain better insights into potential differences between pig- and primate-associated h. suis strains in virulence and pathogenesis. | 2017 | 27558281 |
| development of new pcr primers by comparative genomics for the detection of helicobacter suis in gastric biopsy specimens. | although the infection rate of helicobacter suis is significantly lower than that of helicobacter pylori, the h. suis infection is associated with a high rate of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (malt) lymphoma. in addition, in vitro cultivation of h. suis remains difficult, and some h. suis-infected patients show negative results on the urea breath test (ubt). | 2014 | 24673878 |
