Metal speciation, phytochemicals and Helicobacter pylori infection

Abstract

Helicobacter pylori (HP) acquired in childhood is an important risk factor for gastric carcinoma. Once colonization is established, infection may be carried for life. The relationship between food intake and HP infection, the presence of metals and phytochemicals closely associated with oxidative stress within everyday diet are important topics to be considered. The possible anti-HP effects of phytochemicals, prooxidant effects exerted in the presence of metal species, intimate relations between some metals and HP, bivalent effects of some metal species in cancer, interactions between metal species and phytochemicals in HP infection are the topics, which require further research. Formulas or diets enriched with phytochemicals and metals against HP and, which are devoid of metals known to favour the growth of HP, may be suggested as the supplements to the classical treatment regimens. The importance of collective consideration of HP, metal species and phytochemicals should be emphasized.
