a

H. pylori status of tissue donors was determined by serological analysis.

b

Percentage of HLA-DR+ (green) or CD11c+ (red) pixels of total pixels in gastric lamina propria, determined using the ImageJ “analyze particles” tool.

c

Manders’ colocalization coefficients M1 and M233. M1, proportion of red signal overlapping with a signal in the green channel. M2, proportion of green signal overlapping with a signal in the red channel.

d

Paired Student’s t-test.
