Identification of interaction partners of outer inflammatory protein A: Computational and experimental insights into how Helicobacter pylori infects host cells.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) play a key role in facilitating the survival of Helicobacter pylori within the gastric tissue by mediating adherence. Among these proteins, Outer inflammatory protein A (OipA) is a critical factor in H. pylori colonization of the host gastric epithelial cell surface. While the role of OipA in H. pylori attachment and its association with clinical outcomes have been established, the structural mechanisms underlying OipA's action in adherence to gastric epithelial cells remain limited. Our study employed experimental and computational approaches to investigate the interaction partners of OipA on the gastric epithelial cell surface. Initially, we conducted a proteomic analysis using a pull-down assay with recombinant OipA and gastric epithelial cell membrane proteins to identify the OipA interactome. This analysis revealed 704 unique proteins that interacted with OipA. We subsequently analyzed 16 of these OipA partners using molecular modeling tools. Among these 16 partners, we highlight three human proteins, namely Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), Mesenchymal epithelial transition factor receptor (Met), and Adhesion G Protein-Coupled Receptor B1 (AGRB1) that could play a role in H. pylori adherence to the gastric epithelial cell surface with OipA. Collectively, these findings reveal novel host interactions mediated by OipA, suggesting their potential as therapeutic targets for combating H. pylori infection.
