Disease: Neoplasms
Neoplasms
0.050 Biomarker group BEFREE Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway is a key regulator in innate immunity and has emerged as a promising drug target in cancer treatment, but the utility of this pathway in therapeutic development is complicated by its dichotomous roles in tumor development and immunity. 30790684 2019

Disease: Neoplasms
Neoplasms
0.050 Biomarker group BEFREE We also showed that highly upregulated cGAS/STING signaling is negatively correlated with the infiltration of immune cells in some tumor types, and consistent with these findings, we showed that a high level of cGAS/STING signaling predicts a poor prognosis in patients with certain cancers. 30583098 2019

CUI: C0027651
Disease: Neoplasms
Neoplasms
0.050 Biomarker group BEFREE We conclude that nuclear cGAS suppresses homologous-recombination-mediated repair and promotes tumour growth, and that cGAS therefore represents a potential target for cancer prevention and therapy. 30356214 2018

Disease: Virus Diseases
Virus Diseases
0.050 Biomarker group BEFREE In summary, our findings indicate that HSV-1 VP22 acts as an antagonist of IFN signaling to persistently evade host innate antiviral responses.<b>IMPORTANCE</b> cGAS is very important for host defense against viral infection, and many viruses have evolved ways to target cGAS and successfully evade the attack by the immune system of their susceptible host. 29793952 2018

Neoplasms
0.050 Biomarker group BEFREE Mechanistically, CD47 blockade enabled the activation of NADPH oxidase NOX2 in DCs, which in turn inhibited phagosomal acidification and reduced the degradation of tumor mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in DCs. mtDNA was recognized by cyclic-GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) in the DC cytosol, contributing to type I interferon (IFN) production and antitumor adaptive immunity. 28801234 2017
