Effect of Pretreatment with Omeprazole on the Frequency of <I>Helicobacter pylori</I> Colonization in the Antrum and Gastric Body of Non-germ-free Immature Rats
Abstract:Differences between the colonization sites of Helicobacter pylori might explain the different patterns of H. pylori‐induced gastrointestinal pathology. The migration of H. pylori from the antrum to the gastric body and fundus during omeprazole monotherapy has been reported in H. pylori‐infected subjects. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of pretreatment with omeprazole on later colonization by H. pylori, by use of the rapid urease test, culture, and the polymerase chain reaction on gastric s… Show more
