Intercellular cGAMP transmission induces innate immune activation and tissue inflammation in Trex1 deficiency

Summary: Intercellular transmission of the second messenger 2′,3′-cGAMP, synthesized by the viral DNA sensor cGAMP synthase (cGAS), is a potent mode of bystander activation during host defense. However, whether this mechanism also contributes to cGAS-dependent autoimmunity remains unknown. Here, usi...
