Protective role of STING against gliomagenesis: Rational use of STING agonist in anti-glioma immunotherapy

Abstract

We recently reported that STING contributes to antiglioma immunity by triggering type I IFN induction in glioma microenvironment. Moreover, intratumoral administration of STING agonist improved the efficacy of peptide vaccination in a mouse glioma model, suggesting the rational use of STING agonists in the immunotherapy of brain tumor.
