Eradication therapy for Helicobacter pylori is now common, since eradication of this organism reduces the recurrence rate of peptic ulcer. We evaluated the eradication of H. pylori 4 weeks after the cessation of eradication treatment, and encountered recolonization in patients in whom eradication had been confirmed. Using a urease probe, we analyzed the Ure B restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the DNA of the recolonized H. pylori by Southern blotting and compared it with that of the H. pylori strain cultured before eradication therapy. RFLP patterns before and after the treatment were identical, indicating that the recolonization of H. pylori was an exacerbation of the primary infection, rather than a reinfection.

D010406 Penicillins A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics. (Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed, p1065) Antibiotics, Penicillin,Penicillin,Penicillin Antibiotics
D010437 Peptic Ulcer Ulcer that occurs in the regions of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT which come into contact with GASTRIC JUICE containing PEPSIN and GASTRIC ACID. It occurs when there are defects in the MUCOSA barrier. The common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with HELICOBACTER PYLORI and the consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).
