Poly(I:C) HMW
Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) is a synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), a molecular pattern associated with viral infection. Poly(I:C) is recognized by TLR3 inducing the activation of NF-kB and the production of cytokines.
Poly(I:C) is composed of a strand of poly(I) annealed to a strand of poly(C). The size of the strands varies. InvivoGen is the only company to provide poly(I:C) with two different sizes:
- Poly(I:C) (HMW) with a high molecular weight has an average size of 1.5-8 kb.
- Poly(I:C) (LMW) with a low molecular weight has an average size of 0.2-1 kb
Poly(I:C) is also available on ready-to-use 8-well strips pre-coated at 7 different concentrations and a negative control.

Description：
Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) is a synthetic analog of double stranded RNA (dsRNA), a molecular pattern associated with viral infection. Both natural and synthetic dsRNAs are known to induce type I interferons (IFN) and other cytokines production. Poly(I:C) is recognized by Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) [1, 2]. Upon poly(I:C) recognition, TLR3 activates the transcription factor interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), through the adapter protein Toll-IL-1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing adapter inducing IFN-β (TRIF, also known as TICAM-1) [3]. Activation of IRF3 leads to the production of type I IFNs, especially IFN-β. A second pathway involves the recruitment of TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) or receptor interacting protein 1 (RIP1), with the subsequent activation of the transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1 [4]. Activation of this pathway triggers the production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines such as TNF-α, IL-6 and CXCL10. Poly(I:C) is also recognized by the cytosolic RNA helicases retinoic acid-inducible protein I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associate gene 5 (MDA-5) [5].
