Continuous bioactivity-dependent evolution of an antibiotic biosynthetic pathway.

abstract：:Radiotherapy induces and promotes innate and adaptive immunity in which host STING plays an important role. However, radioresistance in irradiated tumors can also develop, resulting in relapse. Here we report a mechanism by which extrinsic resistance develops after local ablative radiation that relies on the immunosup...
