| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aims of this project were 1) evaluating the virulence factors of Helicobacter pylori, 2) evaluating the host factors related to the development of gastroduodenal diseases, and 3) understanding of the interaction and co-evolution between H. pylori infection and host genetic factors, by performing epidemiological studies using endoscopy among Asian population as international collaborative studies. During the periods of the projects, I could collaborate with researchers in 11 Asian countries (Bhutan, Indonesia, Mongolia, Thailand, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Nepal, Bangladesh, Laos and Malaysia), and could obtain gastric biopsy specimens, and could succeed to culture H. pylori. By genomic analyses, I could identify the importance/association between gastroduodenal diseases/gastric mucosal damages and the prevalence of the infection, H. pylori virulence factors and host SNPs.
