Intro To GERD FAQs Articles Archive Feedback Form ... Home Rank: 5 / Times Cited: 223 The Clinical Significance of Campylobacter Pylori Abstract Campylobacter pylori has recently been isolated from gastric mucosal biopsy specimens. Campylobacter pylori has many attributes in common with other campylobacters but it may represent a new genus. It produces abundant quantities of urease, and this property has been used to develop a rapid diagnostic test. The organism is found predominantly beneath the gastric mucus layer that lines the surface epithelium of the stomach. Infection with C. pylori causes an acute histologic gastritis which may become chronic. The bacterium is the etiologic agent in type-B gastritis. Prevalence of the organism in asymptomatic persons appears to be age related. Campylobacter pylori is found commonly in patients with peptic ulcer disease, always in association with chronic gastritis. Eradication of the organism is associated with healing of the gastritis and a lower relapse rate in duodenal ulcer disease. A role for the organism in other upper gastrointestinal diseases is unproven. Journal ANN. INTERN. MED. 1988; 108/1 (70-79)

Campylobacter and Helicobacter Guillermo I. Perez-Perez Martin J. Blaser General Concepts Campylobacter Jejuni and other Enteric Campylobacters Clinical Manifestations Campylobacter species cause acute gastroenteritis with diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, nausea, and vomiting. Recently, Campylobacter infections have been identified as the most common antecedent to an acute neurological disease, the Guillain-Barré syndrome. Structure Campylobacter species are Gram-negative, microaerophilic, non-fermenting, motile rods with a single polar flagellum; they are oxidase-positive and grow optimally at 37° or 42°C. Classification and Antigenic Types Campylobacter species have many serogroups, based on lipopolysaccharide (O) and protein (H) antigens. However, only a few serogroups account for most human isolates in a given geographic region. C jejuni possesses several common surface-exposed antigens, including porin protein and flagellin. Pathogenesis The bacteria colonize the small and large intestines, causing inflammatory diarrhea with fever. Stools contain leukocytes and blood. The role of toxins in pathogenesis is unclear. C jejuni antigens that cross-react with one or more neural structures may be responsible for triggering the Guillian-Barre syndrome.

Bacteriology at UW-Madison Bacteriology 330 Home Page Helicobacter pylori: An Emerging Pathogen by Karrie Holston, Department of Bacteriology University of Wisconsin-Madison Description of Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped, Gram-negative rod approximately 0.5 x 3.0 micrometers in size. The catalase-positive organism has 4-6 sheathed flagella attached to one pole which allow for motility. History Barry Marshall and Robin Warren of Perth, Western Australia, discovered H. pylori in 1983. Originally, the organism was named Campylobacter pyloridis because it was structurally similar to other Campylobacter species, such as C. jejuni C. jejuni is a gut pathogen which has the ability to colonize the gastric mucosa. C. pyloridis was renamed Campylobacter pylori to fit in with the names of other enteric pathogens. In 1989, it was finally named Helicobacter pylori based on functional and enzymatic properties. Linkage to Gastrointestinal Disease Studies have linked H. pylori to gastrointestinal disease in humans. Even though H. pylori

Gastritis Por Campylobacter pylori Monografía realizada por: Claudio Treitel - Argentina Introducción : Profundamente en las foveolas, donde desembocan varias glándulas, el epitelio superficial es algo modificado, apareciendo las células del cuello glandular. La gastritis es un término medico que se utiliza para aludir a molestias transitorias o triviales como malestar gástrico, dispepsia o indigestión puede existir anatómicamente sin producir síntomas clínicos. En los últimos años se ha descubierto la importancia patogénica del Campylobacter Pylori. La bacteria Campilobacter Pylori, hoy llamada helicobacter pylori son péquenos bacilos curvos, gram -, que frecuentemente se presentan de a pares simulando una imagen de "gaviota" .Poseen un flagelo polar y son móviles. Las campilobacterias desarrollan solo en medios enriquecidos bajo condiciones de microaerofilia, requieren baja concentración de , pero no desarrollan en anaerobios. Las campilobacterias son metabólicamente poco activas. En el hombre este microorganismo curvado, en espiral o en "S" ha sido demostrado solo en el estomago donde se sitúa característicamente recubriendo la mucosa o en la superficie luminal de las células del epitelio superficial. Hasta la fecha no han sido descriptos casos en zonas mas profundas. La significación clínica del C.pylori esta principalmente en su omnipresencia en todo el mundo, su prevalencia en el 20 por 100 de la población adulta , una frecuencia que aumenta con la edad, y la estrecha asociación de su presencia en el estomago y sus afecciones diversas ,como gastritis antral (tipo b), enfermedad ulcerosa gástrica o duodenal , cáncer de estomago o dispepsia no ulcerosa.
