CU-CPT8m is an antagonist of toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8, Kd = 220 nM, IC50 = 67 nM in a reporter assay). It is selective for TLR8 over a panel of all other human TLRs when used at a concentration of 1 µM. CU-CPT8m (1 µM) inhibits increases in TNF-alpha and IL-8 mRNA expression induced by the TLR8 agonist R-848...
