BackgroundHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection increases the risk for atherosclerosis, and ROS are critical to endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. CagA is a major H. pylori virulence factor associated with atherosclerosis. The present study

Helicobacter pylori East Asian CagA is more closely associated with gastric cancer than Western CagA. Here we show that, upon tyrosine phosphorylation, the East Asian CagA-specific EPIYA-D segment binds to the N-SH2 domain of pro-oncogenic SHP2 ...

Molecular docking of a set of flavonoid compounds with Helicobacter pylori virulence factors CagA and VacA [PDF]
Introduction: Cytotoxin associated gene A (CagA) and vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) proteins are the main Helicobacter pylori virulence factors. These toxins are associated with severe gastric diseases.

THE H. PYLORI-RELATED VIRULENCE FACTOR CAGA INFLUENCES THE EXPRESSION OF CHEMOKINES CXCL10, CCL17, CCL20, CCL22, AND THEIR RECEPTORS BY PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS FROM PEPTIC ULCER PATIENTS [PDF]
BACKGROUND: During the Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection, the infiltration of the leukocytes into stomach mucosa is directed by locally produced chemokines that play a decisive role in infection outcome.

Helicobacter pylori CagA EPIYA Motif Variations Affect Metabolic Activity in B Cells
Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) colonizes the human stomach and can induce gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Clinical observations suggest a role for the Hp virulence factor cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) in ...

Helicobacter pylori is the major risk factor for gastric cancer. H. pylori harboring the type IV secretion system (T4SS) and its effector CagA encoded on the cag pathogenicity Island (cagPAI) increases the risk. H. pylori PMSS1 has a multi-cagA genotype,

Helicobacter pylori CagA disrupts epithelial patterning by activating myosin light chain. [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori infection is a leading cause of ulcers and gastric cancer. We show that expression of the H. pylori virulence factor CagA in a model Drosophila melanogaster epithelium induces morphological disruptions including ectopic furrowing.
