弯曲杆菌属和相关属的革兰氏阴性细菌经常定殖于人、其他哺乳动物和鸟类的胃肠道。空肠弯曲菌是一种重要的人类病原体,通常会引起肠道疾病。感染在世界各地很常见,但发达国家和发展中国家的临床和流行病学特征不同。C.空肠感染及其侵入组织和诱导炎症的倾向与格林-巴利综合征的病因有关。
Gram-negative bacteria of the genus Campylobacter and of related genera frequently colonize the gastrointestinal tracts of humans, other mammals, and birds. One organism, Campylobacter jejuni, has been recognized as an important human pathogen, usually causing a diarrheal illness. Infection is common throughout the world, but clinical and epidemiologic features differ in developed and developing countries. The high incidence of C. jejuni infections and their propensity to invade tissue and to induce inflammation are compatible with a role in the causation of Guillain-Barre syndrome.
