Relationship of Helicobacter pylori virulence to gastric pathology in the Western Cape
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThe work presented in this thesis investigated virulence in Helicobacter pylori isolates of the Western Cape and related this virulent fingerprint to alterations in gastric cell physiology and cell cycle events. Initially, the "virulence profile" of 109 isolates from 86 patients with a spectrum of clinically significant gastroduodenal diseases was investigated.
