    The concentration of RIG012 in the serum of non-pregnant female mice (n = 3) intraperitoneally injected once with 10 mg/kg was measured by mass spectrometer.

    RIG012 treatment did not protect against ZIKV-induced fetal demise in Ifnar1−/− mice. Time-mated Ifnar1−/− dams were treated with vehicle or 22.5 mg/kg RIG012 every 12 h from E6.5 to E14 and inoculated with 103 PFU of ZIKV-BRA on E7.5, and the rate of resorption was calculated at E14.5. Data are presented as the percentage of total fetuses (n = 61–100, from 7 to 10 dams per treatment group). Significance was determined by Fishers exact test.

    There were no significant differences in serum titers between vehicle/ZIKV-BRA and RIG012 (I.P, 22.5 mg/kg, every 12 h)/ZIKV-BRA (two-way ANOVA, P > 0.9999). Maternal viremia was assessed via plaque assay at 2, 4, and 7 days post-inoculation (dpi), and significance was determined by two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons.

    There was no significant difference in infectious virus at the MFI between vehicle/ZIKV-BRA and RIG012 (I.P, 22.5 mg/kg, every 12 h)/ZIKV-BRA, and fetuses had undetectable levels of infectious ZIKV-BRA virus.Tissue titer was assessed via plaque assay of MFI and fetus samples harvested at E14.5, and significance was determined by two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparisons. Significance annotations: ****, P ≤ 0.0001; ns, P > 0.05.

    Resorbed fetuses have significantly higher relative interferon-stimulated gene expression than their normal counterparts. ZIKV vRNA load measured by qRT-PCR (A), relative Ifnb (B), Rsad2 (C), and Mx1 (D) expression in the MFI and fetus were plotted against the outcome (resorbed vs normal fetal outcome) and separated by treatment (vehicle vs 22.5 mg/kg RIG012). Gene expression levels in E14.5 MFI and fetus samples were measured by qPCR and normalized to Hprt expression. The ddCT was calculated relative to samples harvested from PBS-inoculated controls. Data points represent individual samples. The mean with standard deviation is plotted. Two-way ANOVA with interaction (between treatment and outcome) and Tukey’s multiple comparisons were used to determine significance. Significance annotations: **, P ≤ 0.01; *, P ≤ 0.05; ns, P > 0.05.

    Description

    RIG012 is a potent RIG-I inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.71 μM using the NADH-coupled ATPase assay. RIG012 inhibits IFN-β and ISG hRsad2 expression[1].

    In Vitro

    RIG012 contains a strong chromophore that absorbs in the visible range (λmax of 470 nm). Upon binding to RIG-I, the 470 nm absorbance band of RIG012 undergoes a dramatic hyperchromic shift to higher intensity values[1].
    RIG012 (1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4 μM) has potent, dose-dependent inhibition of RIG-I signaling in HEK293T cells cotransfected with expression and reporter plasmids[1].
    RIG012 (1.25, 2.25, 4.5, 9, 18 μM) has a potent, dose-dependent inhibition of IFN-β and ISG hRsad2 expression in A549 cells[1].

    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.
