stimulator of interferon genes (STING)

Extracted Explainers

What the tool is doing

The abstract presents STING as an innate immune adaptor that modulates type I interferon signaling and cytokine networks, thereby driving inflammatory processes. It is discussed as a central pathway in neuroinflammatory responses relevant to neurodegenerative disease.
