Preferred Label : cGAS-STING Signaling Pathway;
MeSH definition : A signal transduction pathway that involves cGMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), stimulator of
interferon genes (STING), and downstream signaling adaptors. This pathway plays an
essential role in the innate immune system by activating immune defenses, particularly
against invading pathogens or harmful damage.;
