Crucial role of stimulator of interferon genes-dependent signaling in house dust mite extract-induced IgE production

Abstract Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a DNA sensor that responds to pathogens and induces type I interferon production. Herein, the role of STING in house dust mite extract (HDM)-induced allergic asthma was investigated. C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) and Sting −/− mice were intratracheally sen...
