    Abstract:
    The study was aimed at investigating a relationship between Campylobacter pylori infection in the gastric mucosa and selected parameters of cell-mediated immunity in patients with duodenal ulcer and the individuals with non-ulcerative dyspepsia. A relationship between Campylobacter pylori and gastritis has also been studied. Endoscopic and immunological tests were carried out in the group of 45 patients, including 14 patients with duodenal ulcer and 29 with non-ulcerative dyspepsia. Specimens of gastric mucosa were collected endoscopically for histological and bacteriological examinations. Immunological tests included an assessment of the number of lymphocytes T (and their subpopulations) forming active rosettes (ARFC); total - (TRFC) and theophylline-resistant in active rosettes fraction (ARFC-TR); total (TRFC-TR) and theophylline-sensitive lymphocytes in both fractions (ARFC-TS and TRFC-TS) in 1 mm3 of the peripheral blood. Results suggest, that there is correlation between an infection of the gastric mucosa by Campylobacter pylori and duodenal ulcer and gastritis. No correlation between the infection by Campylobacter pylori and examined parameters of immunity in both patients with duodenal ulcer and non-ulcerative dyspepsia was found.
