Does susceptibility to pediatric Helicobacter pylori infection correlate with the host responses of regulatory and effector T cells?
The host response of Treg cells with increases in FOXP3 and TGF-β1 combined with a reduction in IFN-γ by Teff cells may contribute to H. pylori susceptibility in children.
Expression of ADAM 10 in gastric cancer is significantly associated with lymph node and distant metastasis, high C-erbB-2 expression, and poor prognosis. ADAM 10 and C-erbB-2 proteins could be useful markers to predict tumor progression and prognosis.
