Funded Activity Summary

Autoimmune gastritis is caused by the immune system targeting and destroying the stomach lining. We have developed a mouse model of the causes of gastritis and mapped the two major genes that can control susceptibility. This project involves the final stages of identifying these genes and determining how they cause disease.
