Defining the Helicobacter pylori Disease-Specific Antigenic Repertoire

The analysis of the interaction between H. pylori (HP) and the host in vivo is an extremely informative way to enlighten the molecular mechanisms behind the persistency/latency of the bacterium as well as in the progression of the infection. An important source of information is represented by circulating antibodies targeting the bacteria that define a specific “disease signature” with prospective diagnostic implications. The diagnosis of some...
