➡ Upstream Target
alzheimer's disease
Identification:KO
✗ KILL CRITERIA
- cGAS-STING pathway markers (pTBK1, IFN-β) are not elevated in AD post-mortem microglia relative to age-matched controls
- STING1 knockout fails to reduce microglial senescence or tau spreading in AD mouse models
- Phase II STING antagonist trial shows no change in CSF neuroinflammation markers at 12 months
