Changes in expression of p27, Skp2, and c-Myc proteins in gastric antral epithelial cells of 22 patients following the eradication of H. pylori. The percentage of epithelial cells expressing p27 protein was significantly higher after eradication of H. pylori (a). Gastric epithelial cells expressing Skp2 (b) or c-Myc (c) were significantly lower after H. pylori eradication. The percentage of epithelial cells expressing each specific protein was determined using image analysis software on representative areas of well-oriented immunostained sections. The thick black bars indicate the mean values, **P<0.05.
