Abstract excerpt
The initial signalling events leading to Helicobacter pylori infection associated changes in motility, cytoskeletal reorganization and elongation of gastric epithelial cells remain poorly understood. Because focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is known to play important roles in regulating actin cytoskeletal organization and cell motility we examined the effect of H. pylori in gastric epithelial cells co-cultured with H....
