CCCP inhibits activation of STING and its downstream signalling molecules, TBK1 and IRF3. CCCP inhibits STING-mediated IFN-β production via disrupting mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP).

CDK2 is a member of the eukaryotic S/T protein kinase family and its function is to catalyze the phosphoryl transfer of ATP γ-phosphate to serine or threonine hydroxyl (denoted as S0/T0) in a protein substrate.

8-Prenylkaempferol is an effective agent for attenuating pro-inflammatory NO induction, it may be an anti-inflammatory agent for suppressing influenza A virus-induced RANTES production acts by blocking PI3K-mediated transcriptional activation of NF-κB and IRF-3 and in part by interfering with IκB degradation which subsequently decreases NF-κB translocation.
