cGAMP  (Synonyms: Cyclic GMP-AMP; 3',3'-cGAMP)

Cat. No.: HY-12512 Purity: 98.47%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

cGAMP (Cyclic GMP-AMP) functions as an endogenous second messenger in metazoans and triggers interferon production in response to cytosolic DNA. cGAMP activates stimulator of interferon genes (STING), which activates a signaling cascade leading to the production of type I interferons and other immune mediators.

    In Vitro

    cGAMP promotes the antigen-specific proliferation capacity of spleen cells in mice[2].
    cGAMP directly activates murine and human dendritic cells in vitro[2].
    On stimulation with cGAMP, fibroblasts from the patients showed increased transcription of IFNB1 but not of the genes encoding interleukin-1 (IL1), interleukin-6 (IL6), or tumor necrosis factor (TNF)[3].
    cGAMP activates the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident receptor STING, thereby inducing an antiviral state and the secretion of type I IFNs[4].

    In Vivo

    cGAMP (5 μg; nostril mucosal adjuvant) promotes the antigen-specific cytokine production by spleen cells of immunized mice[2].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: Female C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice 6–8 weeks old[2]
    Dosage: 5 µg
    Administration: Nostril mucosal adjuvant
    Result: Higher titers of ovalbumin (OVA)-specific IgA and total IgG as well as IgG1 and IgG2c in the sera of mice immunized with cGAMP-adjuvanted OVA as compared to sera from OVA-immunized mice.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
