Scientists have long tried to understand how pathogenic bacteria like Helicobacter pylori, a risk factor for stomach ulcers and cancer, survive in the harsh environment of the stomach. In a new study ...

An international team of scientists has—for the first time, they suggest—systematically analyzed somatic mutations in stomach lining tissue to unpick mutational processes, some of which can lead to ...

For the first time, scientists have systematically analysed somatic mutations in stomach lining tissue to unpick mutational processes, some of which can lead to cancer. The team also uncovered hints ...

When the bacterium Helicobacter pylori infects the stomach, it causes gastric inflammation and increases the risk of stomach cancer. A team of researchers from Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and ...

After stomach cancer is diagnosed, a team of cancer specialists will work together with you to develop a personalized ...

Helicobacter pylori are bacteria that humans have hosted in our stomachs for ages. The bacterium is able to withstand the extremely acidic stomach environment and is one of the biggest causes of ...

Gastric cancer cells can activate KRAS-driven signals, enabling autonomous tumor growth by producing their own WNT proteins. New research reveals how gastric cancer cells exploit WNT signaling for ...

Researchers have mapped where pathogenic Helicobacter pylori colonies live in the stomachs of mice. The scientists report that a small number of bacteria can start colonies in the gastric glands and ...

Various cells in the stomach secrete digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid. These substances break down food so the body can absorb nutrients. The stomach is a muscular organ in the upper abdomen ...
