Identification of interaction partners of outer inflammatory protein A: Computational and experimental insights into how Helicobacter pylori infects host cells.

Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) play a key role in facilitating the survival of Helicobacter pylori within the gastric tissue by mediating adherence. Among these proteins, Outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) is a critical factor in H. pylori colonization of the host gastric epithelial cell surface.

Effect of the switch status of Helicobacter pylori outer inflammatory protein A on gastric diseases.

Helicobacter pylori OipA (Outer Inflammatory Protein A) is an outer membrane protein that takes role in the adherence and colonization to the stomach. oipA gene expression is regulated by the slipped-strand mispairing mechanism through a hypermutable CT dinucleotide repeat motif in the 5΄ region. Alterations in the CT number repeats cause frame-shift mutations to result in phase variation of oipA expression.

Characterisation of the Hybrid Isolated from an Autochothonous Kala-Azar Patient: Preliminary Results of an Model.

Objective: In the present study, preliminary outcomes of the assessment of a hybrid isolated from a hospitalised patient with visceral leishmaniasis in Manisa and identified through analysis of the -specific and gene regions are presented in comparison with reference strains of and .

Methods: Three different study groups [(SG); n=16 mice each] and a control group (n=8 mice) were established with female Balb/C mice weighing 25-30 g. Reference (MHOM/IN/1980/DD8), reference (MHOM/TN/1980/IP1) and a hybrid (MHOM/TR/2014/CBVL-LI/ LD), stored in liquid nitrogen, were thawed, cultured and incubated at 25 °C.
