The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of the interferon gene (cGAS-STING) signaling pathway is considered an essential pattern recognition and effector pathway in the natural immune system and is mainly responsible for recognizing DNA molecules present in the cytoplasm and activating downstream signaling pathways to generate type I interferons (IFN-I) and other inflammatory factors. STING, a crucial junction protein in the innate immune system, exerts an essential role in host resistance to external pathogen invasion. The DNA introduced by pathogens or tumors is recognized by the cytoplasmic nucleic acid receptor cGAS, and a second messenger, cGAMP, is generated using intracellular guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Cells have the capability to discharge extracellular vesicles (EVs) into a range of bodily fluids. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) encapsulate biological molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, playing a role in facilitating cell-cell communication. They actively engage in a myriad of physiological and pathological processes.

Background: Bone is the most frequent site of metastasis for breast cancer (BC). Metastatic BC cells interact with bone cells, including osteoclasts and osteoblasts, creating a cancer niche where they seed and proliferate. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regulators of breast-to-bone metastasis progression.

Autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (ADH) is due to enhanced calcium-dependent signaling caused by heterozygous gain-of-function (GOF) variants in the CASR gene (ADH1) or in the GNA11 gene, encoding Gα11 (ADH2). Both ADH1 and ADH2 are associated with hypocalcemia and normal or inappropriately low levels of circulating PTH. ADH1 patients typically manifest hypercalciuria, while ADH2 is associated with short stature in approximately 42% of cases.

Energy is necessary for tumor cell viability and growth. Aerobic glucose-driven lactic acid fermentation is a common metabolic phenotype seen in most cancers including malignant gliomas. This metabolic phenotype is linked to abnormalities in mitochondrial structure and function.
