Friday, October 16, 2009 - 11:14 in Health & Medicine

A research team from South Korea studied the complex reaction of gastric inflammation induced by Helicobacter pylori in a systematic manner using a protein interaction network. They found that immune-related proteins activated by H. pylori infection interact with proto-oncogene proteins. The hub and bottleneck proteins are potential drug targets for gastric inflammation and cancer.
