Helicobacter pylori is a major cause of gastric carcinoma. To investigate possible link between bacterial infection and genetic instability the host genome, we examined effect H. on known cellular repair pathways in vitro vivo. Moreover, various types instabilities nuclear mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were examined.We observed effects cell line (AGS), C57BL/6 mice, individuals with chronic gastritis. In AGS cells, base excision mismatch (MMR) was analyzed by reverse transcription-PCR, Western...

Metal acquisition is crucial for all cells and the virulence of many bacterial pathogens. In particular, nickel a determinant human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori as it cofactor two enzymes essential in vivo colonization, urease [NiFe] hydrogenase. To import despite its scarcity body, H. requires efficient uptake mechanisms that are only partially defined. Indeed, alternative ways entry were predicted to exist addition well-described NixA permease. Using genetic screen, we identified...

We are developing a genetic approach to study with single antibody the folding and topology of LamB, an integral outer membrane protein from Escherichia coli K-12. This consists inserting same reporter foreign antigenic determinant (the C3 epitope poliovirus) at different sites LamB so that resulting hybrid proteins have essentially kept in vivo biological properties therefore its cellular location structure; corresponding called permissive sites. A specific monoclonal can then be used...

Metal acquisition and intracellular trafficking are crucial for all cells metal ions have been recognized as virulence determinants in bacterial pathogens. Virulence of the human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori is dependent on nickel, cofactor two enzymes essential vivo colonization, urease [NiFe] hydrogenase. We found that small paralogous nickel-binding proteins with high content Histidine (Hpn Hpn-2) play a central role maintaining non-toxic nickel controlling its trafficking....

The multifactorial origin of gastric cancer encompasses environmental factors mainly associated with diet. Pteridium aquilinum-bracken fern-is the only higher plant known to cause in animals. Its carcinogenic toxin, ptaquiloside, has been identified milk cows and groundwater. Humans can be directly exposed by consumption plant, contaminated water or milk, spore inhalation. Epidemiological studies have shown an association between bracken exposure cancer. In present work, genotoxicity P....

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a food-borne pathogen that may be responsible for severe human infections. Only limited number of serotypes, including O26:H11, are involved in the majority serious cases and outbreaks. The main virulence factors, toxins (Stx), encoded by bacteriophages. Seventy-four STEC O26:H11 strains various origins (including human, dairy, cattle) were characterized their stx subtypes Stx phage chromosomal insertion sites. food cattle possessed stx(1a)...

Gastric cancer represents a major health burden worldwide and is often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Biomarkers for screening prevention of gastric are missing. Changes in peripheral blood mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have emerged as potential preventive/diagnosis biomarker risk.

Shiga‐toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains may cause human infections ranging from simple diarrhea to Haemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). The five main pathogenic serotypes of STEC (MPS‐STEC) identified thus far in Europe are O157:H7, O26:H11, O103:H2, O111:H8, and O145:H28. Because can survive or grow during cheese making, particularly soft cheeses, a stochastic quantitative microbial risk assessment model was developed assess the HUS associated with MPS‐STEC raw milk cheeses.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is often associated with a poor prognosis, due to its asymptomatic early stages. The current gold standard for diagnosing GC, upper endoscopy, invasive and has limited sensitivity detecting gastric preneoplasia such as dysplasia. Non-invasive biomarkers, circulating proteins in the blood, hold promise detection of lesions. Methods: During an exploratory study, plasma samples from 39 participants, including patients diagnosed different pathologies (gastritis,...
