Abstract EN
Helicobacter pylori is the most important carcinogen for gastric adenocarcinoma.
Bacterial virulence factors are essential players in modulating the immune response involved in the initiation of carcinogenesis in the stomach; host genetic factors contribute to the regulation of the inflammatory response and to the aggravation of mucosal damage.
In terms of environmental factors, salt intake and smoking contribute to the development of lesions.
Various therapeutic schemes are proposed to eradicate H.
pylori infection, which could potentially prevent gastric cancer, offering the greatest benefit if performed before premalignant changes of the gastric mucosa have occurred.
