Adhesion of Helicobacter Species to the Human Gastric Mucosa: A Deep Look Into Glycans Role
7 May 2021
Abstract excerpt
Helicobacter species infections may be associated with the development of gastric disorders, such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia and gastric carcinoma. Binding of these bacteria to the gastric mucosa occurs through the recognition of specific glycan receptors expressed by the host epithelial cells. This review addresses the state of the art knowledge on these host glycan structures...
