Bioactivity | Cyclic GMP (cGAMP) is an endogenous second messenger that triggers interferon production in response to cytoplasmic DNA. Cyclic GMP activates the stimulator of interferon genes (STING), activating a signaling cascade that leads to the production of type I interferons and other immune mediators[1][2]. |
