IFNG and neoplasm: In a study on the anti-tumor effect of inulin, inulin promoted the infiltration of γδ T cells and production of IFN-γ in tumors, but also led to expression of several inflammation-related genes in IECs, including TNF-α, cyclooxygenase-9, and MMP-9, thereby exacerbating inflammation in the intestine, but this seems to be associated with immune surveillance.
