It was shown that TCS incited autophagy in gastric cancer cells via increasing the level of autophagy protein 5 (ATG5), altering microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3) I to LC3 II, inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and stimulating nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB)/Tumor protein p53 (p53) pathway [58]. This evidence concerns the gene ATG5 and gastric cancer.
