st 2825 is a specific inhibitor of myd88 dimerization [1].st 2825 is a synthetic compound which mimics the structure of the heptapeptide in the bb-loop of the myd88-tir domain and interferes the homodimerization of myd88. st 2825 was proved to specifically inhibit the homodimerization of myd88 tir domains without affecting the homodimerization of death domains. in hek293t cells transfected with flag-myd88 and myc-myd88, st 2825 inhibited the interaction of the two myd88 by 80% at the concentration of 10 μm. this inhibition resulted in the subsequent interference of the irak1 and irak4 recruitment. besides that, administration of st 2825 significantly inhibited the il-6 production stimulated by il-1β at doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg in mice. furthermore, 8 μm st 2825 completely blocked the tlr9-induced b cell proliferation. st2825 also suppressed the generation of plasma cells induced by cpg dose-dependently [1].
