Surveillance and clinical relevance of vacA genotypes of Helicobacter pylori infecting dyspeptic patients in mid-Essex.

Communicable disease and public health - 1 Jun 2002

Owen R J, Xerry J, Peters T M, Teare E L

Abstract excerpt

The Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin is a putative pathogenicity factor encoded by vacA, a mosaic gene with a global distribution. The vacA type prevalence and diversity of H. pylori isolated from antral gastric biopsies of 360 dyspeptic patients in mid-Essex, and of 79 patients from other locations, were investigated in order to test for links with disease severity. Mid (m)-region genotyping and...
