Induction of cytoplasmic dsDNA and cGAS-STING immune signaling after exposure of breast cancer cells to X-rays or high energetic carbon ions

Cristina Totis, Nicole Averbeck, Burkhard Jakob, Maik Schork, Gaia Volpi, Dennis F Hintze, Marco Durante, Claudia Fournier, Alexander Helm

This study shows carbon ions induce more cytosolic dsDNA and interferon-β in breast cancer cells than X-rays, enhancing innate immune signaling.
