Potential pathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori strains from Cameroon: seroprevalence of 10 proteins involved in the pathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori -related gastro-duodenal diseases, measured using a new multiplex immunoassay among Helicobacter pylori IgM-positive dyspeptic patients

Key Points

• To investigate the pathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori strains in Cameroon through seroprevalence of specific proteins.
• Utilized a multiplex immunoassay to test proteins involved in pathogenesis.
• Analyzed samples from IgM-positive dyspeptic patients for protein presence.
• H. pylori strains demonstrated strong colonization ability in gastric mucosa.
• A low presence of proteins associated with carcinogenic potential was identified.
