Sim-9 is a covalent allosteric inhibitor of interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). Sim-9 binds covalently to the Cys222 residue of IRF3, induces its conformational change, blocks its interactions with TRIF, MAVS and STING, and inhibits IRF3 homodimerization and type I interferon response. Sim-9 exhibits significant anti-inflammatory, organ-protective and survival benefits in mouse models of sepsis and acute pancreatitis. Sim-9 can be used for research related to inflammatory diseases.
