The study compared A20 expression across a spectrum of gastric pathologies, including Helicobacter pylori (HP) gastritis, autoimmune gastritis (A-gastritis), reactive gastropathy (C-gastritis), Ex-HP-gastritis, adenomas, and adenocarcinomas, with nonpathological gastric mucosa serving as a baseline. Here, TNFAIP3 is linked to Helicobacter pylori infectious disease.
