Gastric bacteria from cheetahs with gastritis were used to inoculate specific-pathogen free kittens and conventional mice. Helicobacter sp. and Gastrospirillum sp. colonized kittens, while only Gastrospirillum sp. colonized mice. In kittens, both bacterial species induced mild lymphofolliclar gastritis which did not change over the course of the 11 months observation period. In mice, Gastrospirillum sp. induced lymphoplasmacytic and follicular gastritis which increased in severity over 6 months and persisted for the 12 month observation period. Gastric ulcers and gastric mucosal hypertrophy were present in chronically infected mice. These results indicate that host but not bacterial factors influence the severity of gastritis, and that in mice, bacterial gastritis increases in severity with time and may lead to gastric ulceration in some individuals.

() infection is a typical microbial agent that interferes with the complex mechanisms of gastric homeostasis by disrupting the balance between the host gastric microbiota and mucosa-related factors, ultimately leading to inflammatory changes, dysbiosis, and gastric cancer (GC). We searched this field on the basis of PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus databases. Most studies show that inhibits the colonization of other bacteria, resulting in a less variety of bacteria in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

is a Gram-negative bacterium and human pathogen that is linked to various gastric diseases, including peptic ulcer disease, chronic gastritis, and gastric cancer. The filament of the flagellum is surrounded by a membranous sheath that is contiguous with the outer membrane. Proteomic analysis of isolated sheathed flagella from B128 identified the lipoprotein HP0135 as a potential component of the flagellar sheath.

Objective: Helicobacter pylori is known for colonizing the gastric mucosa and instigating severe upper gastrointestinal diseases such as gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers, and gastric cancer. To date, there is no data available on the oral cavity as transmission site, whether H. pylori can survive in the oral cavity or in human saliva.

-associated gastritis (HPAG) is a common condition of the gastrointestinal tract. However, extensive and long-term antibiotic use has resulted in numerous adverse effects, including increased resistance, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and increased recurrence rates. When these concerns develop, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) may have advantages.
