In this regard, it has been recently demonstrated that dietary ATX (0.005%) ameliorated oxidative stress, interferon gamma (IFN-γ) levels, and the oncogenes c-myc and cyclin D1 in a mouse model of H. pylori-associated gastritis, suggesting the chemopreventive role of this carotenoid in H. pylori-induced carcinogenesis [252]. Here, IFNG is linked to gastritis.
