Department of Medicine II, Technical University of Munich, Germany
Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 283:G309-18. 2002..In summary, cagE presence appears to be essential for H. pylori-induced apoptosis of gastric parietal cells, and this effect is dependent on the activation of NF-kappaB and production of nitric oxide...
