It is the recognized by international institutions for cancer research as a causative agent of infection-mediated carcinogenesis and is the most prevalent among infection-mediated cancers worldwide. This review aims to describe how <em>Helicobacter pylori</em> causes gastric cancer through its bacterial structures and/or secretory products. This narrative review summarizes current knowledge on <em>H. pylori</em>-induced gastric carcinogenesis using a non-systematic search of studies (1990–2024). Key literature on bacterial virulence, host responses, molecular mechanisms, and epithelial transformation was critically reviewed to highlight the pathogenic pathways linking chronic infection to gastric cancer. It induces gastric cancer by transforming gastric epithelial cells into an immortal state through different mechanisms. Complex combinations of host epigenetic and bacterial virulence factors determine the susceptibility and severity of the outcome in a subset of individuals. Gastric carcinogenesis is mostly dependent on strain variants of <em>Helicobacter pylori</em> which possess virulence factors for the pathogenesis and mediation of inflammation. Among the most studied virulence factors of <em>Helicobacter pylori</em>, cytotoxicity-associated gene A protein, vacuolation cytotoxic protein A, and some outer membrane proteins are rate-limiting factors for bacterial effects on gastric carcinoma development. To date, substantial advancements have been made in the comprehensive understanding of <em>Helicobacter pylori</em> pathogenesis, its complex biological effects, and its role in gastric mucosal carcinogenesis. Progress in molecular biology, immunopathology, and microbial genomics has elucidated key mechanisms by which the bacterium promotes epithelial transformation and tumor progression. Concurrently, significant improvements in diagnostic technologies have enhanced the early detection of both <em>H. pylori</em> infection and precancerous mucosal alterations, facilitating timely clinical intervention and risk stratification. However, more research is needed to fully understand the roles of other <em>H. pylori</em> gene products in cancer development.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101246,"journal":{"name":"The Microbe","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100648"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145939464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, an integrated <em>in silico</em> approach was employed to identify potential PtpB inhibitors from a series of anilinoquinazoline derivatives. Molecular docking–based virtual screening of thirty-five reported compounds was performed to evaluate their binding affinity toward the PtpB active site. Several ligands exhibited stronger docking scores than the reference drugs isoniazid and OMTS, with compound 10 emerging as a promising hit. Detailed interaction analysis supported its selection as a lead scaffold for further optimization. Consequently, compound 10 was used as a template to design nine novel analogues, among which compound 10b demonstrated markedly improved binding affinity and a favourable interaction profile within the active site. Molecular dynamics simulations over 100 ns confirmed the structural stability of the 10b–PtpB complex, as reflected by low RMSD fluctuations and persistent interactions with key catalytic residues.
