Two mononuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu(C(15)H(16)NO(2))(2)] (1) and [Cu(C(6)H(9)N(2)O(4))(2)·3H(2)O] (2·3H(2)O), were synthesised and structurally characterised by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The copper(II) atom adopts a square-planar environment in complex 1, while the geometry in 2·3H(2)O could be described as the distorted square pyramidal. Complexes 1 and 2·3H(2)O were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) urease in vitro. They both were found to have strong inhibitory activities against H. pylori urease comparable to that of acetohydroxamic acid (AHA). A docking simulation was performed to position 2 into the H. pylori urease active site to determine the probable binding conformation.

Clinically significant problems such as kidney stones and stomach ulcers are linked to the activation of the urease enzyme. At low pH, this enzyme gives an ideal environment to Helicobacter pylori in the stomach which is the cause of gastric ulcers and peptic ulcers. In recent work, we have developed a library of 4-fluorocinnamaldehyde base thiosemicarbazones and assessed them for their potential against urease enzyme.

Aims: , the dominating cause of gastric cancer, most often infects children initiating inflammation in the antral part and spreads orally to the oxyntic mucosa. Traditionally, eradication of has been based upon a combination of antibiotics together with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) to reduce gastric destruction of the antibiotics. Recently it has been shown that the more efficient inhibitors of acid secretion, the potassium-competitive acid blockers (PCABs) in combination with amoxicillin alone gave highly sufficient eradication.

Objectives: To delineate and understand the genetic variations among strains from Trinidad and Tobago associated with gastric diseases.
Methods: One hundred (n = 100) patients who routinely presented with clinical features suggestive of peptic disease were enrolled in the study and underwent gastroscopy procedures. Biopsy specimens were analyzed using serological and molecular methods.

Helicobacter pylori possesses an intrabacterial nanotransportation system (ibNoTS) for transporting VacA, CagA, and urease within the bacterial cytoplasm. This system is controlled by the extrabacterial environment. The transport routes of the system for VacA have not yet been studied in detail.
