[ Name ]:
2-amino-9-[3,4-dihydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)oxolan-2-yl]-8-methylsulfanyl-3H-purin-6-one

[Synonym ]:
8-methylsulfanyl-guanosine

Biological Activity

[Description]:

8-(Methylthio)guanosine is a guanosine analogue. Some guanosine analogs have immunostimulatory activity. In some animal models, they also induce type I interferons, producing antiviral effects. Studies have shown that the functional activity of guanosine analogs is dependent on the activation of Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7)[1].
