CagA mediates epigenetic regulation to attenuate let-7 expression in Helicobacter pylori -related carcinogenesis
30 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as tumour suppressor genes or oncogenes in the regulation of multiple carcinogenic processes. Aberrant miRNA expression is reported in Helicobacter pylori (H pylori)-related gastritis and gastric cancer. The cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) of H pylori has a pathophysiologically important role in gastric carcinogenesis. A study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of CagA on...
