Abstract excerpt
The H. pylori outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) is an outer membrane protein that contributes to gastric inflammation. OipA is believed to affect intra-cellular signalling and modulate the host signalling pathways. The aim of the current study was to clarify the role of OipA in H. pylori pathogenesis and its effect on host cell signalling pathways. To this end, the oipA gene was isolated and inserted into...
