CAY10748 is an agonist of stimulator of interferon genes (STING; IC50= 0.3794 μM in a competition binding assay).1It activates STING in STING-expressing, but not STING knockout, THP-1 cells (EC50s = 0.287 and >100 μM, respectively, in a reporter assay). It induces phosphorylation of STING at the serine in position 366, as well as phosphorylation of TBK1 and IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), indicating activation of the STING-TBK1-IRF3 signaling pathway. CAY10748 increases the secretion of IFN-β and the levels of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), and IL-6 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) when used at a concentration of 10 μM. It also reduces tumor growth in a CT26 murine colon cancer model when administered at a dose of 0.15, but not 1.5, mg/kg. 1.Xi, Q., Wang, M., Jia, W., et al.Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of amidobenzimidazole derivatives as stimulator of interferon genes (STING) receptor agonistsJ.

StA-IFN-1 is an inhibitor of the interferon (IFN) induction pathway with an IC50 value of 4.1 μM in a GFP reporter assay for IFN induction similar to TPCA-1 , which specifically inhibits the IKKβ component of the IFN induction pathway. It does not show inhibitory activity in a GFP reporter assay for IFN signaling in which ruxolitinib , which is specific for the IFN signaling component JAK1, is active. StA-IFN-1 reduces the levels of IFN-β, but not ISG MxA, mRNA, suggesting that it is selective for the IFN induction pathway and not the IFN signaling pathway.
