The neuroimmune nexus: unraveling the role of the mtDNA-cGAS-STING signal pathway in Alzheimer’s disease

Molecular Neurodegeneration, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 20(1)

Published: March 4, 2025

The relationship between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and neuroimmunity has gradually begun to be unveiled. Emerging evidence indicates that cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) acts as a cytosolic DNA sensor, recognizing damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), inducing the innate immune response by activating stimulator of interferon genes (STING). Dysregulation this pathway culminates in AD-related neuroinflammation neurodegeneration. A substantial body mitochondria are involved critical pathogenic mechanisms AD, whose damage leads release mitochondrial (mtDNA) into extramitochondrial space. This leaked mtDNA serves DAMP, various pattern recognition receptors defense networks brain, including cGAS-STING pathway, ultimately leading an imbalance homeostasis. Therefore, modulation mtDNA-cGAS-STING restore neuroimmune homeostasis may offer promising prospects for improving AD treatment outcomes. In review, we focus on during stress activation pathway. Additionally, delve research progress further discuss primary directions potential hurdles developing targeted therapeutic drugs, gain deeper understanding pathogenesis provide new approaches its therapy.

Published: July 3, 2023

Background Ischaemia-evoked neuroinflammation is a critical pathogenic event following ischaemic stroke. Gasdermin D (GSDMD)-associated pyroptosis represents type of inflammation-associated programmed cell death, which can exacerbate neuroinflammatory responses and brain damage. Stimulator interferon genes (STING) was recently described as vital innate immune adaptor protein associated with neuroinflammation. Nevertheless, the regulatory effects STING on microglial post-stroke have not been well elaborated. Methods STING-knockout wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfected into BV2 cells before oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R).
