Higher cGAS-STING score was closely associated with poor clinical outcome of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) and kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), whereas the cGAS-STING score predicted a better prognosis in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PCPG). Here, STING1 is linked to pheochromocytoma.
