    The DNA-sensitive enzyme cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase (CGAS) regulates inflammation and immune defense against pathogens and malignant cells


    Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors and the main cause of cancer deaths in men and women


    Cyclic guanosine monophosphate synthase (cGAS) is a DNA sensor that can trigger innate immune responses


    In this study, the authors used dextran sodium sulfate (Dss)-induced colitis model and colitis-associated colon cancer (Cac) model to study the role of cGAS in colitis
