The reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is a rapid detection technology that allows the amplification and quantification of specific RNA transcripts. RT-qPCR has increasingly been adopted for the detection and quantification of H. pylori across a range of sample types and applications. In addition, it is widely used to monitor host gene expression in cells and tissues in response to H. pylori infection . Outlined here is a two-step protocol that can be employed to analyze gene expression in H. pylori or H. pylori-infected samples.

D016480 Helicobacter pylori A spiral bacterium active as a human gastric pathogen. It is a gram-negative, urease-positive, curved or slightly spiral organism initially isolated in 1982 from patients with lesions of gastritis or peptic ulcers in Western Australia. Helicobacter pylori was originally classified in the genus CAMPYLOBACTER, but RNA sequencing, cellular fatty acid profiles, growth patterns, and other taxonomic characteristics indicate that the micro-organism should be included in the genus HELICOBACTER. It has been officially transferred to Helicobacter gen. nov. (see Int J Syst Bacteriol 1989 Oct;39(4):297-405). Campylobacter pylori,Campylobacter pylori subsp. pylori,Campylobacter pyloridis,Helicobacter nemestrinae
D016481 Helicobacter Infections Infections with organisms of the genus HELICOBACTER, particularly, in humans, HELICOBACTER PYLORI. The clinical manifestations are focused in the stomach, usually the gastric mucosa and antrum, and the upper duodenum. This infection plays a major role in the pathogenesis of type B gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. Infections, Helicobacter,Helicobacter Infection,Infection, Helicobacter
