OBJECTIVES: Helicobacter pylori is an identified carcinogen for gastric cancer, however, the
underlying mechanisms remain to be defined. In this review, we sought to elucidate the role …

BACKGROUND--Helicobacter pylori may promote gastric carcinogenesis through
increasing gastric epithelial cell proliferation. How H pylori does so is unknown …

Helicobacter pylori is a human microbial pathogen that colonizes the gastric epithelium and
causes type B gastritis with varying degrees of active inflammatory infiltrates. The underlying …

The role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric carcinogenesis is supported almost exclusively by
epidemiological data and prospective histopathological studies. From biological and …

Apoptosis, like Helicobacter pylori, has a long history, extending back into the 19th Century.
1 Apoptosis was ignored or forgotten, just like H pylori, only to reemerge relatively recently …

Background Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human gastric mucosa, causing chronic
inflammation, peptic ulcers and gastric cancer. A cascade of harmful processes results from …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Helicobacter pylori may affect the normal balance between gastric
epithelial cell proliferation and epithelial cell death, thus interfering with the maintenance of …

We have compared apoptosis and proliferation in antral epithelium from individuals not
infected with H. pylori (Hp), those with Hp‐induced gastritis and those with Hp‐induced …

BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori affects gastric epithelium integrity by acceleration of
apoptosis. However, it remains unclear what product of the bacteria causes apoptosis, or …

Background/Aims: Helicobacter pylori induces the apoptosis of gastric epithelial cells in vivo
and in vitro. However, the molecular mechanism has not been clarified. The aim of this study …
