Objective: Helicobacter pylori has a well-established role in the development of gastric cancer. In vitro studies reveal increased proliferation of the gastric mucosa in the presence of H. pylori infection. It has been also shown that production of some cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b) is in...

Gastric cancer, as well as inflammation, caused by Helicobacter pylori, activates the production of chemokines by activation of redox-sensitive transcription factor NF- κ B in gastric epithelial cells. Mitogen-activated protein kinases including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 kinase (p38) are activated by Helicobacter pylori, which may regulate NF- κ B activation in the inf...

objective: helicobacter pylori has a well-established role in the development of gastric cancer. in vitro studies reveal increased proliferation of the gastric mucosa in the presence of h. pylori infection. it has been also shown that production of some cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta (il-1b) is increased in h. pylori infection. in addition, il-1b increases proliferation of gastric epithe...

Objective(s): The present paper aims to review the studies describing the interactions between HopQ and CEACAMs along with possible mechanisms responsible for pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori.Materials and Methods: The literature was searched on “PubMed” using different key words including Helicobacter pylori, CEACAM and gastric.<br ...

Animal studies showed that male gastric tissues respond more rapidly to Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection but the possible mechanisms remained unclear. There is no data about gender specific activity of Androgen receptor (AR) as an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in gastric cancer and its interactions with H.pylori and angiogenesis in both genders. To compare the pathogenesis o...

Increased apoptotic death of gastric epithelial cells is a hallmark of Helicobacter pylori infection, and altered epithelial cell turnover is an important contributor to gastric carcinogenesis. To address the fate of apoptotic gastric epithelial cells and their role in H. pylori mucosal disease, we investigated phagocyte clearance of apoptotic gastric epithelial cells in H. pylori infection. Hu...

Infection of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) changed the proliferation of gastric epithelial cells and decreased the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). However, the effects of H. pylori on the proliferation of gastric epithelial cells and the roles of HSP70 during the progress need further investigation. Objective. To investigate the effects of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and heat...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Helicobacter pylori induces the apoptosis of gastric epithelial cells in vivo and in vitro. However, the molecular mechanism has not been clarified. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of H pylori on the apoptosis of gastric epithelial cells and the expression of apoptosis related genes in vitro. METHODS Human gastric adenocarcinoma SGC-7901 cells were co-cultu...
