... treatment regimens are needed. Probiotic and gastrointestinal bacteria exert anti- H. pylori activity in vivo, thus being potential add-on candidates for future eradication strategies. Summary: In this review, we summarised the currently available literature for in vivo inhibition of H. pylori . Included...

... against invading bacteria are crucial to maintain tolerance towards commensal bacteria. When the mechanisms of early removal of invading bacteria are disturbed, a loss of tolerance and a full-blown adaptive immune reaction, which is mounted against the usually harmless commensal flora, are induced...

...Paul K. Flanagan; Barry J. Campbell; Jonathan M. Rhodes If bacteria cause IBD, then it should be possible to target the bacteria with therapies and cure or at least treat the disease. Discovery of a successful intervention, unless found by chance, will depend on knowing more about which bacteria...

Opportunistic pathogens are detected in the stools or mucosa of a proportion of subjects with Crohn’s disease. They include Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis , adherent invasive Escherichia...
