Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium salt

The Uses of Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium salt

TLR3 recognizes double-stranded RNA and is a major effector of the immune response against viral pathogens. Polyinosinic–polycytidylic acid sodium salt is a double-stranded homopolymer used as a model RNA to study cell signaling at the level of TLR3. Poly(IC) is a TRIF-dependent toll-like receptor-3 (TLR3) ligand.

The Uses of Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium salt

Polyinosinic Acid & Polycytidylic Acid Sodium Salt (double-stranded) is a TLR3 (Toll-like receptor 3) agonist.

What are the applications of Application

Polyinosinic acid - polycytidylic acid sodium salt, double-stranded is a TLR3 (Toll-like receptor 3) agonist

Biological Activity

Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium (Poly(I:C) sodium) is a synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA and an agonist of toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) and retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RIG-I and MDA5). Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium can be used as a vaccine adjuvant to enhance innate and adaptive immune responses, and to alter the tumor microenvironment. Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid sodium can directly trigger cancer cells to undergo apoptosis.
