Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) functions as a foreign DNA sensor, triggering an immune response to pathogens by activating the STING (stimulator of interferon genes) receptor. Shortly after its ...
Researchers at Texas A&M University reported that two intranasal doses of extracellular vesicles derived from human neural ...
Cells possess an innate immune system that defends against invasive pathogens. Previous studies have mapped out the cytoplasmic cGAS-STING pathway in the cytoplasm, known for responding to foreign ...
Cells possess an innate immune system that defends against invasive pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. Previous studies have mapped out the cytoplasmic cGAS-STING pathway in the cytoplasm, known ...
Activating this signaling pathway, known as the cGAS-STING pathway, worked even better when combined with existing immunotherapy drugs known as checkpoint blockade inhibitors, in a study of mice. That ...
The cGAS–STING pathway is a component of the innate immune system that functions to detect the presence of cytosolic DNA and, in response, trigger expression of inflammatory genes that can lead to ...
To explore this further, here we describe the cGAS-STING signaling cascade and its extensive downstream activation channels, highlight some of the triggers for pathway activation, outline its diverse ...
The cGAS-STING pathway facilitates crosstalk between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME). The activation of cGAS-STING promotes the release and presentation of cancer antigens, T cell ...
Infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that led to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic can cause various clinical presentations ranging from ...
