Circulating mitochondrial DNA-triggered autophagy dysfunction via STING underlies sepsis-related acute lung injury
Abstract The STING pathway and its induction of autophagy initiate a potent immune defense response upon the recognition of pathogenic DNA. However, this protective response is minimal, as STING activation worsens organ damage, and abnormal autophagy is observed during progressive sepsis. Whether an...
