| Description: |
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. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: |
Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide.
We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
