Oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs induce low levels of TNF-alpha in human B lymphocytes: possible adjuvants for Th1 responses.
Oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) represent potential adjuvants for specific immunotherapy of type I allergies because they foster Th1-like immune responses. However, previous work has shown that CpG-ODN induce systemically active levels of TNF-alpha in murine macrophages. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the release of TNF-alpha in human cells by a CpG-ODN prov...
متن کاملSuccessful treatment of intracranial gliomas in rat by oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs.
Phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides with CpG motifs (CpG-ODNs) activate various immune cell subsets and induce production of numerous cytokines. To evaluate whether CpG-ODNs can induce rejection of established tumors, Lewis rats were inoculated intracerebrally with syngeneic CNS-1 glioma cells and subsequently injected with CpG-ODNs into the tumor bed. Although all of the control rats (n = 1...
متن کاملThe endogenous adjuvant squalene can induce a chronic T-cell-mediated arthritis in rats.
Squalene is a cholesterol precursor, which stimulates the immune system nonspecifically. We demonstrate that one intradermal injection of this adjuvant lipid can induce joint-specific inflammation in arthritis-prone DA rats. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses revealed erosion of bone and cartilage, and that development of polyarthritis coincided with infiltration of alphabeta(+)...
متن کاملImmunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs enhance the efficacy of monoclonal antibody therapy of lymphoma.
Bacterial DNA and synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing the CpG motif (CpG ODN) can activate various immune cell subsets, including natural killer cells and macrophages. We evaluated whether the combination of CpG ODN and antitumor monoclonal antibody is effective at preventing tumor growth in an immunocompetent murine lymphoma model. CpG ODN-activated murine splenocytes induced lysis of t...
