| Definition (CSP) | a genus of microaerophilic, gram-negative, spiral rods which have been associated with several gastrointestinal disorders including duodenal ulcers, gastric carcinomas, and dyspepsia; causative agent of active chronic gastritis in humans. |
| Definition (MSH) | A genus of gram-negative, spiral-shaped bacteria that has been isolated from the intestinal tract of mammals, including humans. It has been associated with PEPTIC ULCER. |
| Definition (NCI) | Helicobacter. A genus of gram-negative helical, curved, or straight microaerophilic bacteria with rounded ends and multiple sheathed flagella (unipolar or bipolar and lateral) with terminal bulbs. Form nonpigmented, translucent colonies, 1-2 mm in diameter. Catalase and oxidase positive. Found in gastric mucosa of primates, including human beings and ferrets. Some species are associated with gastric and peptic ulcers and gastric cancer. The type species is Helicobacter pylori. |
