Abstract
The cGAS-STING signaling pathway is an important part of the innate immune system, which could trigger the expression of a series of inflammatory factors represented by interferon type 1 (IFN-1). This pathway plays an important role in many diseases such as infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, and tumors. In recent years, it has been found that the cGAS-STING signaling pathway is important in the physiological and pathological processes of the liver, and is closely related to the progression of liver diseases. This paper reviews the role of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway in common liver diseases such as chronic hepatitis B, alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and liver cancer, as well as its application in the treatment of liver diseases.
