8-(Methylthio)guanosine

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 .
