Activation of STING by SAMHD1 Deficiency Promotes PANoptosis and Enhances Efficacy of PD-L1 Blockade in Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Genomic instability is a significant driver of cancer. As the sensor of cytosolic DNA, the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway plays a critical role in regulating anti-tumor immunity and cell death. However, the role and regulatory mechanisms of STING in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are still undefined. In this study, we reported that sterile alpha motif and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) deficiency induced STING expression and inhibited tumor growth in DLBCL. High level of SAMHD1 was associated with poor prognosis in DLBCL patients. Down-regulation of SAMHD1 inhibited DLBCL cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, we found that SAMHD1 deficiency induced DNA damage and promoted the expression of DNA da
