Imiquimod is an immune response modifier that activates toll-like receptors 7 and 8 (TLR7/8), leading to the production of cytokines such as interferon-α, IL-6, and TNF-α. It also acts as an adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonist. While primarily used in dermatology for treating basal cell carcinoma, Imiquimod’s immunomodulatory properties are being explored in neuroinflammation research. Its ability to activate innate immune pathways and modulate adenosine signaling suggests potential applications in neurodegenerative diseases characterized by immune dysregulation and glial activation.
