TRIF-IFN-I pathway in Helicobacter-induced gastric cancer in an accelerated murine disease model and patient biopsies.

ABSTRACT: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is a known cause of many digestive diseases, including gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms by which H. pylori infection triggers these disorders are still not clearly understood. Gastric cancer is a slow progressing disease, which makes it difficult to study. We have developed an accelerated disease progression mouse model, which leverages mice deficient in the myeloid differentiation primary response 88 gene (Myd88^-/-) infected with Helicobacter felis (H. felis). Using this model and gastric biopsy samples from patients, we report that activation of the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR)-domain-containing adaptor inducing interferon-β (TRIF)-typ
