This review, which is devoted to the analysis of current data on genetic properties of Helicobacteria, is the first work in the Russian literature summarizing the research results published before and after the sequencing of the genome of two Helicobacter pylori pathogenic strains--26695 and J99. It discloses information about the genetic control of pathogenecity factors and their localization on the chromosome. There is a review of genes participating in the colonization of Helicobacteria, lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis, urease synthesis, and pH control. Special attention is focused on the problem of so-called "viable" but non-cultured forms of Helicobacter pylori.

The role of Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcers and gastric adenocarcinoma is widely known; however, it is not entirely understood how bacterial infection is closely related to the genesis of follicular gastritis and some types of gastric lymphoma. Diagnosing and pathogenic mechanisms follicular gastritis remain challenging. Therefore, this article aims to examine the role of H.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the primary etiological agent of gastric adenocarcinoma, which affects over 60% of the global population, with a significant prevalence in Latin America. Given its impact on the affected population, it is crucial to understand the diagnostic tools available for detecting this infection.
