OMP38 of Carbapenem‐Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii‐Mediated mtDNA Release Activates the cGAS‐STING Signaling to Induce Inflammatory Response by Yang Yang, Yuanyuan Zeng, Jianjie Zhu, Jianjun Li, Lei Gu, Lin Wei, Zeyi Liu, Jian‐an Huang

“…The cytosolic DNA sensor cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase (cGAS) and the adaptor protein stimulator of interferon genes (STING) are required for CRAB‐induced IFN‐β expression in macrophages. Intriguingly, CRAB utilized outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) to transport outer membrane protein 38 (OMP38) into mitochondria, triggering mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) release into the cytosol through the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) and activating the cGAS‐STING signaling. …”
