In 1984, Warren and Marshall discovered the Gram-negative spiral-shaped bacterium Helicobacter pylori in the mucosa of the gastric antrum and corpus in patients with confirmed gastritis and peptic ulcers of the duodenum. Nowadays Helicobacter pylori is recognized as causative agent of gastrointestinal diseases like chronic gastritis, gastric ulcers and gastric cancer. In 1994, the World Health Organization (WHO) classified Helicobacter pylori as a group I carcinogen and inducer of gastric cancer.
