Lifelong infection of the gastric mucosa by Helicobacter pylori can lead to peptic ulcers and gastric cancer.However, how the bacteria maintain chronic colonization in the face of constant mucus and epithelial cell turnover in the stomach is unclear.Here, we present a new model of how H.pylori establish and persist in stomach, which involves the co
