Astin C
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Astin C (Asterin) is a cyclopeptide that can be extracted from Aster tataricus. Astin C has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities. Astin C can specifically inhibit the cGAS-STING signaling pathway, block the recruitment of IRF3 to the STING signalosome, and thus inhibit the innate inflammatory response. Astin C can be used in the research of autoimmune diseases and cancers.

Biological Activity
Astin C (10 μM; 6 h) significantly inhibits the expression of Ifnb mRNA induced by cGAS or STING in HEK293 cells[1].
Astin C (10 μM; 6 h) significantly impaires the interactions between STING and IRF3, as well as between STING and SCAP, and inhibits the aggregation of SCAP and IRF3 in HEK293T cells and MEFs[1].
