Since its discovery, H. pylori infection is known as one of the risk factor for the development of gastritis, peptic ulcer, GIT tumors and numerous other diseases such as psoriasis. Infection caused by H. pylori is posed as the top oncogene in the risk of the development of gastrocarcinoma (First class oncogene by Classification of International Agency for Research of Cancer). That is why the elaboration of fast and accurate methods of diagnosis (non-invasive methods especially) and proper treatment of Helicobacter infection is still very important. Throughout the time, knowledge about pathogenesis of Helicobacter infection have been expanded with the detection of adhesins, chemotaxins and multiple virulence factors related to invasion, adhesion and cytotoxicity of H. pylori. Invasive and non-invasive methods of diagnostics are currently being improved in effectiveness and accuracy. But still, due to different factors (e. g., dramatically increasing drug resistance), eradication of H. pylori remains big problem world-wide. Our review represents modern data on pathogenesis, diagnostics and treatment of Helicobacter infection.
