Analysis of Helicobacter pylori cagA Promoter Elements Required for Salt-Induced Upregulation of CagA Expression
18 Jun 2012
Abstract excerpt
Helicobacter pylori infection and consumption of a high-salt diet are each associated with an increased risk for the development of gastric cancer. To investigate potential synergism between these factors, we used a global proteomic approach to analyze H. pylori strains cultured in media containing varying salt concentrations. Among the differentially expressed proteins identified, CagA exhibited the greatest...
