Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides within specific sequence contexts (CpG motifs) are detected, like bacterial or viral DNA, as a danger signal by the vertebrate immune system. CpG ODN show promise as vaccine adjuvants and immunoprotective agents in animal models. Here we report that pretreatment with CpG ODN in animals induces nonspecific protection against v...
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) are key effectors in host innate immunity and orchestrate adaptive immune responses. CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) have potent immunostimulatory effects on PDCs through TLR9 recognition and signaling. Little is known about the effects of CpG ODN on human PDC-mediated T cell priming. Here we show that type B CpG ODN effectively promotes PDCs to prime allogen...
The present study determines whether the expression of the huntingtin gene might be subject to antisense (AS)-mediated down-regulation. A series of AS oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) complementary to the huntingtin transcript [i.e., nucleotide (nt) -25 to 35] were designed and synthesized, and the AS efficacy was investigated by using a combination of in vitro transcription and translation to mimi...
Three distinct classes of CpG-oligonucleotides (ODN) (CpG-A, CpG-B and CpG-C) have been identified on the basis of differences in their structures and immune effects. To date, only CpG-B is applied for clinical treatments; however, it is still unknown which of the different CpG-ODN classes is most useful as an adjuvant for human cancer vaccine therapy. In the present study, we examined the acti...
We evaluated the innate immune response to various synthetic CpG-containing oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODNs) by measuring nitric oxide production in the peripheral blood monocytes from turkey poults. The results indicate that the presence of the CpG dinucleotide in ODNs was a prerequisite for activation of turkey monocytes and induction of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. CpG motifs and sequence st...
Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) that contain unmethylated CpG dinucleotides trigger a strong innate immune response in vertebrates. CpG ODN show promise as vaccine adjuvants, anti-allergens, and immunoprotective agents in animal models. Their transition to clinical use requires the identification of motifs that are optimally stimulatory in humans. Analysis of hundreds of novel ODN resulted in the i...
A flow injection SPR spectrometer is used to detect DNA hybridization via amplification by an enzyme-catalyzed precipitation reaction. Hybridization of an oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) target with a surface-confined ODN probe, followed by hybridization between the overhang on the resultant duplex and a biotin-tagged ODN, yields a "sandwich" complex (a three-component double-stranded). A streptavid...
Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is the key component of telomerase catalytic activity, and is associated with tumorigenesis. Recent evidence suggests that the down-regulation of hTERT could rapidly induce an antiproliferative effect in tumor cells, independent of the telomere-elongating function of the enzyme. To test the immediate antitumor efficacy of this down-regulation, anti...
A number of bacterial cytokine-inducing substances (CIS) such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and exotoxins have been detected in dialysate and may contribute to inflammation in hemodialysis patients. Short DNA fragments, oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) of 6 to 20 nucleotides, are able to bind to Toll-like receptors and are stimulatory on immune cells. ODN induce natural killer cell activity and induc...
OBJECTIVE To explore the potential role of CpG motif-containing oligonucleotides (CpG-ODN) in modulating the expression of FasL in HepG2 and Fas in Jurkat cells in vitro, and to examine the effect of CpG-ODN treatment on the HepG2 cells-mediated Jurkat cell apoptosis in vitro. METHODS The expressions of FasL in HepG2 and Fas in Jurkat cells were examined by real time PCR and flow cytometry (F...
