NEW Chaperone-mediated Autophagy Activator
CA77.1 (Prod. No. AG-CR1-0165) is a novel selective chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) activator by increasing the expression of the lysosomal receptor LAMP2A. CA77.1 is able to activate CMA in vitro and in vivo. It has been shown in animal studies that administration of CA77.1 may help to degrade toxic pathogenic protein products, such as tau proteins, and has potential applications in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Potent NLRP3 Inflammasome Inhibitors!
Dapansutrile (Prod. No. AG-CR1-3535) is a potent, selective and orally active inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome. It directly binds to the ATP-binding motif of NLRP3 NACHT domain and inhibits NLRP3 adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity, suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activation. Compared to MCC950 it has a favorable toxicological safety profile for in vivo studies.

MCC950 . Na (Prod. No. AG-CR1-3615) is a potent, selective and orally available NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor that prevents oligomerization of Asc in cells stimulated with LPS and Nigericin. MCC950 is the standard inhibitor for in vitro research.

CARD8 – Inflammasome Sensor of HIV! NEW Insights
Efavirenz (Prod. No. AG-CR1-3751) is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) that exhibits antiviral and anticancer activities. Recently, NNRTIs such as Efavirenz and Rilpivirine (AG-CR1-3750) have been described to bind and dimerize the HIV-1-Gag-Pol polyprotein containing the protease, causing premature viral protease activation and leading to CARD8 activation in HIV-1 infected cells. Treating HIV-1-infected macrophages and CD4+ T cells with NNRTIs leads to CARD8-mediated caspase-1 activation and pyroptotic cell death.

NEW STING Agonist!
MSA-2 (Prod. No. AG-CR1-0164) is a new orally available cell-permeable STING (STimulator of INterferon Genes) agonist with anti-tumoral effect. Like the natural ligand of STING, cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP, a cytosolic double-stranded DNA sensor), MSA-2 induces the release of type I interferons and other proinflammatory cytokines. STING-controlled interferon production is involved in antiviral defense as well as antitumor immunity.
