  2. Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterium that colonizes the human stomach, mainly persisting within the gastric mucus layer. • Chronic infection is associated with the development of gastric adenocarcinoma, and H. pylori was recently defined as a class I carcinogen.

  3. Adhesins are microorganisms’ surface protein that interact with glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids.The functions of microoragnisms’ adhesins are cell attachment, tissue colonization, and invasion.The best defined H. pylori adhesin found to date is Leb blood group antigen binding adhesin (BabA).BabA bind to fucosylated blood group antigens Lewis B (Leb) and H-1.
