This study has the potential to bring effective cell therapies, for the first time, to Canavan disease children who have no treatment options. The approach established in this study can also benefit many other children who have deadly genetic diseases that have no cure.STING is known as a central adaptor for sensing cytosolic DNA sensing. Recent studies have provided evidence that STING response is divergent among different cell types. Here, this work demonstrates that STING controls neural progenitor cells (NPCs) by sensing DNA damage in NPCs. The deletion of STING reduces neuronal differentiation and increases proliferation of mouse and human NPCs. Furthermore, STINGcKO mice display autistic-like behaviors. In NPCs, STING specifically recruits IKKβ and activates nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) through phosphorylation. NF-κB binds to ALX4 promoter and triggers ALX4 transcription. In addition, tumor necrosis factor α, an activator of NF-κB, can rescue some phenotypes caused by STING deletion in mice. Together, the findings show that STING signaling is essential for neuronal gene expression program and has profound consequences on brain function.Brain diseases are one of the most important problems in our rapidly ageing society. Currently, there are not many effective medications and surgical options are limited due to invasiveness and non-invasive brain stimulation techniques cannot be well targeted and cannot access deep brain areas. A novel therapy is transcranial ultrasound which allows a variety of treatments without opening of the skull. Recent technological developments generated three revolutionary options including 1) targeted non-invasive surgery, 2) highly targeted drug, antibody, or gene therapy via local opening of the blood-brain barrier, and 3) highly targeted brain stimulation to imp
