Gong, M, Ling, SS, Lui, SY, Yeoh, KG and Ho, B (2010) Helicobacter pylori gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase is a pathogenic factor in the development of peptic ulcer disease. Gastroenterology 139:564-73

Abstract

gamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) has been reported to be a virulence factor of Helicobacter pylori associated with bacterial colonization and cell apoptosis. But its mechanism of pathogenesis is not firmly established. This study aims to examine its role in H pylori-mediated infection.
