Immunobiology of Helicobacter pylori infection

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1997
Helicobacter pylori is a 'slow' bacterial pathogen. While infection is usually acquired early in life, only decades later does severe pathology appear. During this long period of incubation, the host mounts a vigorous immune response against H. pylori which fails to resolve the infection and may in fact contribute to the severity of the disease.

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1993
In conclusion, H. pylori infection can be detected by a variety of methods. The simplest, least expensive noninvasive method is serologic testing. Unfortunately, positive serology can only presume current infection. Urea breath testing is also noninvasive and is positive only in the setting of current infection; it is more expensive than serology and ...
