Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin encoded by vacA plays an essential role in H. pylori-related pathogenesis. Specific vacA alleles are believed to be associated with increased virulence. Association among vacA polymorphism, vacA middle genotypes, and various H. pylori-related diseases was thus investigated. METHODS: Eighty-nine isolates from patients with various gastrointestinal diseases were...
