STINGagonist 12b is an agonist of stimulator of interferon genes (STING).1It binds to STING (Kd= 26.4 μM) and induces interferon reporter gene expression in cells expressing human or mouse STING (EC50s = 7.45 and 10.23 μM, respectively). STINGagonist 12b (40 μM) induces expression of TNF-a, IL-6, IP-10, and IL-1b in THP-1 cells. 1.Hou, S., Lan, X.-j., Li, W., et al.Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of acridone analogues as novel STING receptor agonistsBioorg.

STINGagonist 1a is an agonist of stimulator of interferon genes (STING).1It induces expression of an IRF-inducible SEAP reporter gene in a cell-based assay (EC50= 16.77 μM). STINGagonist 1a (12.5-100 μM) induces expression of IFN-β, IL-6, and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10) in THP-1 cells, an effect that can be reversed by STING knockout or the STING inhibitor H-151 . 1.Hou, H., Yang, R., Liu, X., et al.Discovery of triazoloquinoxaline as novel STINGagonists via structure-based virtual screeningBioorg.

STINGagonist-3 trihydrochloride is a selective and non-nucleotide agonist of small-molecule STING(pEC50 and pEC50 of 7.5 and 9.5, respectively), has durable anti-tumor effect and tremendous potential to improve treatment of cancer.
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.

MSA-2 dimer is a selective, orally active non-nucleotide STINGagonist (Kd=145 μM) with long-term antitumor and immunogenic activity. MSA-2 dimer is bound to STING as a non-covalent dimer exhibiting higher permeability than cyclic dinucleotide[1]. MSA-2 dimer (60 mg kg; p.o.; 50 days) inhibits tumor growth and prolongs overall survival[1]. MSA-2 dimer (40 mg kg; s.c.; 25 days) induces complete tumor regression[1].MSA-2 dimer (60 mg kg; p.o.; 4 hours) increases proinflammatory cytokine (IFN-β) level in tumors[1].MSA-2 dimer (60 mg kg; s.c.; 4 hours) concentrations is observed in tumors than in plasma or other nontumor tissues [1].MSA-2 dimer (THP-1 cells) induces phosphorylation of both TBK1 and IR. MSA-2 dimer (10 μM and 33 μM; macrophages) induces IFN-β[1].MSA-2 dimer also exhibits dose-dependent antitumor activity when administered by IT, SC, or PO routes[1]. [1]. Pan BS, et al.

STINGagonist C11 is an agonist of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway.1 It induces secretion of type I IFN from THF and MM6 cells when used at a concentration of 50 μM. STINGagonist C11 induces phosphorylation of IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and increases expression of IFIT1 and viperin, but not IL-1β, IL-6, or IL-8 in THF cells in a STING-dependent manner. It reduces viral titers of chikungunya, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, o'nyong-nyong, Mayaro, and Ross River viruses grown in THF cells (EC90s = 16.44, 16.7, 18.84, 25.19, and 22.57 μM, respectively), an effect that is dependent on the presence of STING and the IFN-α β receptor (IFNAR).References1.
