R848
R848 is an imidazoquinoline compound with potent anti-viral activity. This low molecular weight synthetic molecule activates immune cells via the TLR7/TLR8 MyD88-dependent signaling pathway [1, 2].
Recently, R848 was shown to trigger NF-κB activation in cells expressing murine TLR8 when combined with poly(dT) [3].
Unlike other commercially available R848 preparations, InvivoGen's R848 is water soluble and controlled for TLR7/8 potency and TLR4/TLR2 contamination.
R848 is also available on ready-to-use 8-well strips pre-coated at 7 different concentrations and a negative control.
