Core Tip	Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a Gram negative bacterium that colonizes the human stomach early in the life of the host and tends to persist. The present review is focused on the general phenomenon of the fickleness in H. pylori and analyses the significance and role of this “chameleon-like” approach to life in the persistence of this fastidious bacterium outside and inside the host.
