Helicobacter pylori Pathogenicity Associated cagA and vacA Genotypes Among Nigerian Dyspeptic Patients
2017
Journal of Molecular Biomarkers & Diagnosis
Objective: Although Helicobacter pylori infection is endemic in Nigeria, the specific genotypes that influence treatment responses are scarcely known. We aimed to determine the specific genotypes of H. pylori virulence genes, vacA and cagA in dyspeptic patients. Subjects and methods: Gastric biopsy samples were obtained from 80 dyspeptic patients referred for endoscopy. Genomic DNA was extracted from biopsies using the ReliaPrep DNA kit. H. pylori DNA was detected by a singleplex PCR based on
