Abstract:Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is involved in the pathogenesis of gastric ulcer and cancer, and might secret proteinases. Given emerging roles of proteinase‐activated receptors (PARs) in the gastric mucosa, we investigated the correlation between expression of PARs and H. pylori infection in the stomach isolated from gastric cancer patients. The extent of H. pylori infection was evaluated as regional protein levels of ureases A and B, and analyzed in relation to expression levels of PAR1 and PAR2 in the corre… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
