Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2015 Feb 2. pii: 201420217. [Epub ahead of print]Full text in PNAS

Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

Cytosolic DNA-sensing pathways that signal via Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) mediate immunity to pathogens and also promote autoimmune pathology in DNaseII- and DNaseIII-deficient mice. In contrast, we report here that STING potently suppresses inflammation in a model of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
