Activation of IL-8 Gene Expression by <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Is Regulated by Transcription Factor Nuclear Factor-κB in Gastric Epithelial Cells
1998-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Abstract In vivo, gastric infection with Helicobacter pylori leads to substantial production of the inflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-8. H. pylori strains that contain the cag pathogenicity island (cag+) and are associated with ulceration and gastric carcinoma induce greater cytokine production than cag− strains. Expression of these cytokines is often regulated by the transcription factor complex, n...
