“…However, it is also shown that blood group A is found to be related with H. Pylori infection (Bhuiyan et al, 2009), as Kanbay et al demonstrated that H. Pylori infection is related with both O and A blood group type and reported negative relation with AB group (Kanbay et al, 2005). Results of our study are however consistent with the association of H. Pylori infection with blood group O relation (Martins et al, 2006).…”

“…This shows that, some additional factors such as the genetic predisposition of the host and the genotype of H pylori strains have influences on it. Studies have discovered a blood group antigen binding adhesin (BabA), which help the organism to adhere to the epithelial cells (Martins et al, 2006). Boren et al demonstrated that, the H and Leb antigens of the ABH and Lewis (Le) blood group systems are the receptors on gastric epithelial cells for H pylori (Kanbay et al, 2005).…”

“…Some years ago we reported an association between the O blood group and H. pylori infections in patients who were submitted to gastric endoscopy with our data being subsequently verified by two studies involving adult and infant patients from different regions of Brazil (5,14,15). Observations that emerged from these studies have been supported by several publications over the last few years (1-3, 9, 16).…”

“…The role of Lewis-b antigen, which is biochemically related to ABO blood groups and secretor factor, and has been implicated as a putative receptor for Helicobacter pylori in the gastric mucosa, is debatable. Several studies have reported an increase of Lewis-b phenotype in H. pylori infected patients [65,66] . It has been suggested that H. pylori bacteria adhere to the epithelial cells by producing adhesins such as BabA, which bind to the Lewis-b antigen displayed on the surface of stomach epithelial cells [20] .…”
