Background: Helicobacter pylori colonizes the gastric mucosa and must survive the acid pH of that environment. Like other enteric bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella enterica, H. pylori develops an acid tolerance ...

Background: Helicobacter pylori colonizes the acid environment of the gastric mucosa. Like other enteric bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella enterica, which must survive a brief exposure to that environment, H. pylori ...

Helicobacter pylori infects the human stomach and modifies signaling pathways that affect gastric epithelial cell proliferation and viability. Chronic exposure to this pathogen contributes to the onset of gastric atrophy, ...

A considerable body of evidence exists implicating high levels of free saturated fatty acids in beta pancreatic cell death, although the molecular mechanisms and the signaling pathways involved have not been clearly ...
