Objective: The effect of the cGAS/STING pathway on antitumor immunity and its connection to senescence in vivo necessitates further investigation.

Introduction: Cellular senescence and its secretory phenotype (the SASP) are implicated in modulating the immune microenvironment of cancer possibly through the cGAS/STING pathway.

Methods: Gene expression data from paired colon cancer and adjacent non-malignant mucosa (98 patients,  = 196 samples; 65 patients,  = 130 samples) were analyzed for cGAS/STING and a senescence signature.
