Induction of gastric epithelial cell apoptosis by Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin.

Cancer research - 1 Mar 2003

Cover Timothy L, Krishna Uma S, Israel Dawn A, Peek Richard M

Abstract excerpt

Chronic gastritis induced by Helicobacter pylori is a strong risk factor for the development of distal gastric adenocarcinoma. A specific host response to H. pylori that may contribute to gastric carcinogenesis is epithelial cell apoptosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the capacity of H. pylori vacuolating toxin (VacA) to induce gastric epithelial cell apoptosis. When cocultured with AGS gastric...
