Notes: KIN1148 is an IFN regulating factor 3 (IRF3) activator and adjuvant.{65747} It increases the mRNA expression of the genes encoding IFN-stimulated gene 54 (ISG54) and 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthase-like (OASL) protein in PH5CH8 cells and increases chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10) production in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-differentiated THP-1 monocytes when used at a concentration of 10 µM. Immunization with a vaccine in combination with KIN1148 as an adjuvant increases blood IgG, neutralizing, and hemagglutinin antibody titers, decreases particle-forming units (PFUs) in the lungs and lung-draining lymph nodes, and increases the survival percentage of mice infected with a lethal dose of influenza virus.
