Comparison of Host Gene Expression Profiles in Spleen Tissues of Genetically Susceptible and Resistant Mice during ECTV Infection.

TL;DR: Collectively, the differential transcriptome profiles of susceptible and resistant mouse strains with ECTV infection will be crucial for further uncovering the molecular mechanisms of the host-Orthopoxvirus interaction.

No Longer A One-Trick Pony: STING Signaling Activity Beyond Interferon.

TL;DR: In this article, the evolutionary origin and molecular mechanisms of STING-mediated type I interferon (IFN)independent activities were reviewed. But, the authors did not consider the effect of the environment on STING.

Secretion of c-di-AMP by Listeria monocytogenes Leads to a STING-Dependent Antibacterial Response during Enterocolitis

TL;DR: These studies suggest that in barrier sites such as the intestinal tract, where pathogen-associated molecular patterns are abundant, cytosolic surveillance systems such as STING are well positioned to detect pathogenic bacteria.

AMICA1 is a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and induces immune cells infiltration by activating cGAS-STING signaling in lung adenocarcinoma

TL;DR: In this article , the role of AMICA1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) through bioinformatic analysis and in vitro experiments was investigated and it was shown that AMICA 1 might function as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and significantly suppressed the proliferation of LUAD cells.

Cyclic GMP-AMP Synthase is a Cytosolic DNA Sensor that Activates the Type-I Interferon Pathway

TL;DR: Results indicate that cGAS is a cytosolic DNA sensor that induces interferons by producing the second messenger cGAMP, which belongs to the nucleotidyltransferase family.

Autophagy in immunity and inflammation

TL;DR: A crucial role is revealed for the autophagy pathway and proteins in immunity and inflammation, and they balance the beneficial and detrimental effects of immunity andinflammation, and thereby may protect against infectious, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

Functional role of type I and type II interferons in antiviral defense.

TL;DR: Comparison of mice lacking either type I or type II IFN receptors showed that, at least in response to some viruses, both IFN systems are essential for antiviral defense and are functionally nonredundant.

STING is an endoplasmic reticulum adaptor that facilitates innate immune signalling.

TL;DR: The identification of a molecule (STING; stimulator of interferon genes) that appears essential for effective innate immune signalling processes is reported, implying a potential role for the translocon in innate signalling pathways activated by select viruses as well as intracellular DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

STING regulates intracellular DNA-mediated, type I interferon-dependent innate immunity

TL;DR: It is shown that STING (stimulator of interferon genes) is critical for the induction of IFN by non-CpG intracellular DNA species produced by various DNA pathogens after infection.
