Differentiation of five enterohepatic Helicobacter species by nested PCR with high ‐resolution melting curve analysis
ConclusionsThe nested PCR‐HRM assay is a simple, rapid, and cost‐effective assay. This assay could be a useful tool for molecular epidemiology study of enterohepatic Helicobacter infection and an attractive alternative for genotyping of enterohepatic Helicobacter species. (Source: Helicobacter)

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) silencing in Helicobacter pylori ‐infected human gastric epithelium
ConclusionHP infection‐dependent DNA methylation suppressed TRPV4 expression in human gastric epithelia, suggesting that TRPV4 methylation may be involved in HP‐associated dyspepsia. (Source: Helicobacter)

Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in newly arrived refugees attending the Migrant Health Service, South Australia
ConclusionH. pylori infection is common among newly arrived refugees. The long latency of infection to development of complications and the availability of testing and relatively effective eradication regimens all add weight to a decision to screen in this population. (Source: Helicobacter)

Binary mixture of Satureja hortensis and Origanum vulgare subsp. hirtum essential oils: in vivo therapeutic efficiency against Helicobacter pylori infection
ConclusionsThese results show that 2MIX is effective in reducing H. pylori colonization suggesting that this essential oil mixture has great potential as a new, effective, and safe therapeutic agent against H. pylori. (Source: Helicobacter)

Comparative virulence of in vitro ‐cultured primate‐ and pig‐associated Helicobacter suis strains in a BALB/c mouse and a Mongolian gerbil model
ConclusionsApart from the cynomolgus monkey‐associated strain which was unable of colonizing the stomach of Mongolian gerbils, no substantial differences in virulence were found in rodent models between in vitro‐cultured pig‐associated, cynomolgus monkey‐associated and rhesus monkey‐associated H. suis strains. The experimental host determines the outcome of the immune response against H. suis infection, rather than the original host. (Source: Helicobacter)

Other Helicobacters and gastric microbiota
This article aimed to review the literature from 2015 dealing with gastric and enterohepatic non‐Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter species (NHPH). A summary of the gastric microbiota interactions with H. pylori is also presented. An extensive number of studies were published during the last year and have led to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of infections with NHPH. These infections are increasingly reported in human patients, including infections with H. cinaedi, mainly characterized by severe bacteremia. Whole‐genome sequencing appears to be the most reliable technique for identification of NHPH at speci...

Treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection 2016
This article will address the published literature over the last year pertaining to the topic of treatment of H. pylori infection. The main themes that emerge are assessing the efficacy of standard triple therapy, as well as exploring new first‐line treatments, mainly optimized nonbismuth‐containing and bismuth‐containing quadruple therapies with some promising data also emerging on dual therapy. There was also considerable progress in investigating antibiotic resistance rates with much more data emerging from varied parts of the world compared to recent years. Advances in the use of adjunctive therapies, especially...

Helicobacter pylori in children
Abstract Helicobacter pylori infection in early childhood may differ in many aspects compared to infection in adulthood: the immune response in the gut, the type and prevalence of complications within and outside the stomach, and the impact on long‐term health. In high prevalence countries, transient infections seem to be common in infants and toddlers, and the consequences of this phenomenon on the short‐ and long‐term immune response are still unclear. Other controversial issues are related to the question of which H. pylori‐infected children benefit from treatment and which is the best regimen to eradicate the ...
