Moreover, Kaplan–Meier analyses revealed that the tumor cell-intrinsic expression of cGAS-STING tended to be positively associated with 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS), but not with 10-year overall survival (OS), in patients with pMMR CRC, although these findings were not significant (Figure 4D and Figure S8C). Here, STING1 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
