For a long time it was assumed that increased gastric pH levels e.g. after the use of antacids, would allow Gram-negative microorganisms to multiply in the stomach, and consequently lead to an increased rate of NP.
Therefore, it is assumed that increased concentrations of MMP-2 and MMP-9 with the increasing concentration of arsenic observed in this study may correspond to the activities of both MMPs.
This hypothesis is consistent with the observed geographic spread of B. dendrobatidis, if it is assumed that increased susceptibility of otherwise-resistant frog species could promote spread of infection.
