Background:

cGAMP(Cyclic GMP-AMP) is an endogenous second messenger in metazoans and triggers interferon production in response to cytosolic DNA; STING ligand.Target:in vitro: cGAMP induced IFNβ RNA robustly even at concentrations as low as 10 nM. cGAMP was much more potent than c-di-GMP in inducing IFNβ based on ELISA assays. cGAMP was also more potent than c-di-GMP and c-di-AMP in activating IRF3. cGAMP binds to and activates STING to trigger the downstream signaling cascades [1]. 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 can enhance the adaptive immune response to the model antigen ovalbumin in mice. cGAMP promotes antigen specific IgG and a balanced Th1/Th2 lymphocyte response in immunized mice [2].
