Across systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s syndrome, systemic sclerosis, idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel diseases, IFNs were consistently associated with aberrant activation of pattern recognition receptors, sustained expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), and dysregulated T cell and B cell responses. Here, STING1 is linked to multiple sclerosis.
