CagA mediates dysregulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. a. CagA competitively combines with E-cadherin and disrupts the E-cadherin/β-catenin complex formation, causing cytoplasmic and nuclear accumulation of β-catenin. b. H. pylori induces rapid phosphorylation and activation of LRP6. c. CagA induces GSK-3β inactivation via the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. d. CagA binds GSK-3β directly and depletes GSK-3β activity, inhibiting the phosphorylation and proteasomal degradation of cytosolic β-catenin
