LncRNA NEAT1 Interacted With DNMT1 to Regulate Malignant Phenotype of Cancer Cell and Cytotoxic T Cell Infiltration via Epigenetic Inhibition of p53, cGAS, and STING in Lung Cancer

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that NEAT1 interacted with DNMT1 to regulate cytotoxic T cell infiltration in lung cancer via inhibition of cGAS/STING pathway and provided the novel mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of lung cancer.

STING induces LC3B lipidation onto single-membrane vesicles via the V-ATPase and ATG16L1-WD40 domain.

TL;DR: Results indicate that activation of the cGAS-STING pathway induces V-ATPase-dependent LC3B lipidation that may mediate cell-autonomous host defense, an unanticipated mechanism that is distinct from LC3 B lipidation onto double-membrane autophagosomes.

A STING to inflammation and autoimmunity.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of cGAS-STING signaling in the induction of auto-inflammation and various autoimmune diseases is discussed, as well as the endogenous negative regulators required for its regulation.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
