Differential H. pylori-Induced MAPK Responses Regulate Lewis Antigen Expression and Colonization Density on Gastric Epithelial Cells Between Children and Adults

In conclusion, a higher p38 expression in gastric epithelium counteracting JNK activity in children may contribute to lower Lewis antigen expression and colonization density than in adults after H. pylori infection.
