Core Tip
Core Tip: In this study, we explored the influence and mechanism of action of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) on the development of gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer, which are currently inconclusive. Metagenomic sequencing was performed on mucosal samples from H. pylori-infected patients with gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer and healthy individuals. Mucosal flora structure, differentially functional genes, and metabolic pathways were analyzed to explore the role that H. pylori plays in the development of gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer. Ultimately, two key metabolic pathways and related genes contributed from H. pylori were identified.
