This study investigated the prevalence of <jats:italic>H. pylori<\/jats:italic> in 100 gastric biopsy samples from patients with dyspepsia and analyzed antibiotic resistance and virulence genes <jats:italic>(cagA, vacA, iceA, <\/jats:italic>and<jats:italic> babA)<\/jats:italic> using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Diagnosis was performed via PCR, culture, rapid urease test, and histopathological examination, with antibiotic susceptibility assessed through the E-test method.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The study was conducted between September 2022 and February 2023. The study found that 34% of samples were PCR-positive for <jats:italic>H. pylori<\/jats:italic>, while culture, histology examination, and rapid urease test showed positivity rates of 23%, 53%, and 63%, respectively. Alarmingly, antibiotic resistance was prevalent, with 100% resistance to clarithromycin and metronidazole, 39.1% to tetracycline, and 34.8% to levofloxacin. Virulence gene analysis revealed high positivity rates: <jats:italic>cagA<\/jats:italic> (53%), <jats:italic>babA<\/jats:italic> (29%), <jats:italic>iceA1<\/jats:italic> (20.6%), <jats:italic>iceA2<\/jats:italic> (41.2%), and <jats:italic>vacA<\/jats:italic> (97.1%), with the <jats:italic>vacA s1m2<\/jats:italic> allele variant being most common (55.8%).<\/jats:p><jats:p>These findings underscore the significant role of virulence factors like <jats:italic>cagA<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>vacA<\/jats:italic> in <jats:italic>H. pylori<\/jats:italic> pathogenesis and the severity of related diseases. The study highlights the urgent need for routine antimicrobial susceptibility testing to guide treatment amidst escalating antibiotic resistance. It also emphasizes the value of molecular diagnostics, such as PCR, for accurate and rapid detection of\u00a0<jats:italic>H.\u00a0pylori<\/jats:italic> and its virulence determinants. These insights are critical for improving the management of <jats:italic>H. pylori<\/jats:italic>-associated diseases and combating antibiotic resistance globally.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1556\/030.2025.02572","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,23]],"date-time":"2025-05-23T12:29:02Z","timestamp":1748003342000},"page":"153-163","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1556\/policypage.crossmark.crossref.2","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Prevalence, antibiotic resistance and molecular characterization of virulence factors of Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from patients with dyspepsia"],"prefix":"10.1556","volume":"72","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0877-453X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Elif","family":"Ayd\u0131n","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Vocational School of Health Services, K\u00fctahya Health Sciences University, K\u00fctahya, T\u00fcrkiye"},{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology, Medical Faculty, Agri Ibrahim Cecen University, Agri, T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ayten Nur","family":"Uzun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, K\u00fctahya Health Sciences University, K\u00fctahya, T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Duygu","family":"Per\u00e7in Renders","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, K\u00fctahya Health Sciences University, K\u00fctahya, T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aysun","family":"\u00c7al\u0131\u015fkan Kartal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, K\u00fctahya Health Sciences University, K\u00fctahya, T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S\u00fcleyman","family":"Co\u015fgun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, K\u00fctahya Health Sciences University, K\u00fctahya, T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"425","reference":[{"key":"B1","series-title":"Indian J Med Microbiol","first-page":"258","article-title":"Clinical relevance of virulence genes in Helicobacter pylori isolates recovered from adult dyspeptic patients in Turkey","volume":"40","author":"Akar M","year":"2022","unstructured":"Akar M, Kayman T, Abay S, Solakoglu T, Karakaya E, Aydin F.
