Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial community in the crop of the hoatzin, a neotropical folivorous flying bird
Filipa Godoy-Vitorino,Ruth E. Ley,Zhan Gao,Zhiheng Pei,Humberto Ortiz-Zuazaga,Luis R. Pericchi,María Alexandra García-Amado,Fabián Michelangeli,Martin J. Blaser,Jeffrey I. Gordon,Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello +10 more
TL;DR: The hoatzin is unique among known avian species because of the fermentative function of its enlarged crop, and this bird provides an interesting model to examine how diet selection and the gut microbiota contribute to maximizing digestive efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of CagA in the Gastric Biology of Helicobacter pylori.
Steffen Backert,Martin J. Blaser +1 more
TL;DR: H. pylori was discovered in 1983 by the Australian scientists Warren and Marshall as a gastric pathogen, causing peptic ulcer disease, and was found to be a major cause of cancer in women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Humoral and cellular immune recognition of Helicobacter pylori proteins are not concordant.
S A Sharma,Geraldine G. Miller,Guillermo I. Perez-Perez,Radhey S. Gupta,Martin J. Blaser,Martin J. Blaser +5 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that, in contrast to antibody responses, T cell recognition of H. pylori proteins may occur in non‐infected persons, and suggest that in these subjects, peripheral lymphocytes that are activated by bacterial heat shock proteins do not mediate tissue damage by recognition of human heat shock homologues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linking Helicobacter pylori to gastric cancer
TL;DR: Although Helicobacter pylori affects a large percentage of the population, only a small percentage of carriers develop peptic ulcers and gastric cancer.
