N ‐Acetylcysteine Reduces ROS‐Mediated Oxidative DNA Damage and PI3K/Akt Pathway Activation Induced by Helicobacter pylori Infection
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Background . H. pylori infection induces reactive oxygen species‐ (ROS‐) related DNA damage and activates the PI3K/Akt pathway in gastric epithelial cells. N ‐Acetylcysteine (NAC) is known as an inhibitor of ROS; the role of NAC in H. pylori ‐related diseases is unclear. Aim . The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of ROS and the protective role of NAC in the pathogenesis of H. pylori ‐related diseases....
