Various gram-negative pathogens express type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) which
translocate bacterial virulence factors into host target cells to hijack cellular processes for …

Clarithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic widely used for eradication of Helicobacter pylori
infection, and thus resistance to this antibiotic is a major cause of treatment failure. Here, we …

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the strongest identified risk factor for gastric cancer, the third
most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. An H. pylori constituent that …

Helicobacter pylori persistence is associated with its capacity to develop biofilms as a
response to changing environmental conditions and stress. Extracellular DNA (eDNA) is a …

The type IV secretion system (T4SS) is a versatile nanomachine that translocates diverse
