Biological Activity

Description Resiquimod (R-848, S28463) is an immune response modifier that acts as a potent TLR 7/TLR 8 agonist that induces the upregulation of cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6 and IFN-α. Resiquimod reduces hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Phase 2.
Targets
TLR7 [1] TLR8 [1]
In vitro
In vitro

Resiquimod activates immune cells and induces proliferation of wild-type splenocytes via the Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7)-MyD88-dependent signaling pathway. [1]

Resiquimod also modulates dendritic cells to augment cytomegalovirus- and HIV-1-specific T cell responses. [2]

Resiquimod induces the differentiation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells into macrophages and dendritic cells, and may improve cancer immunotherapy by reducing immunosuppressive MDSCs. [3]

Cell Research Cell lines Peripheral blood leukocytes
Concentrations 0.5–2 μg/ml
Incubation Time 24 h
Method

Cells were treated with various concentrations of drug.

In Vivo
In vivo

In wild-type mice, Resiquimod (50 nmol, i.p.) induces increased serum concentrations of IFN-alpha, TNF-alpha and IL-12, while neither TLR7-deficient mice nor MyD88-deficient mice show an increase in these cytokines. [1]

In a murine model of allergic asthma, Resiquimod (i.n., 20 μg/mouse) reduces allergen induced airway reactivity and inflammation via reduction in Nrf2 signaling. [4]

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
