Nitric oxide and TNF-α trigger colonic inflammation and carcinogenesis in Helicobacter hepaticus-infected, Rag2-deficient mice

Recombinase-activating gene-2-deficient (Rag2[superscript −/−]) mice lacking functional lymphocytes provide a useful model of chronic inflammatory bowel disease-emulating events in human colon cancer. Infection of Rag2[superscript −/−] mice with Helicobacter hepaticus led to accumulation of macropha...
