From the authors: “This work provides evidence that Helicobacter pylori decreases levels of Na-K-ATPase, a vital transport enzyme, in gastric epithelia, both in acutely infected cultured cells and in chronically infected patients and animals.”
This study is highlighted as one of May’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society’s APSselect program.
