CpG ODN, class C (human / mouse) - TLR9-based adjuvant

ODN 2395 is a synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide containing unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG ODNs).CpG ODNs are recognized by TLR9, which is expressed exclusively on human B cells and plasmocytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), thereby inducing Th1-dominated immune responses.

ODN 2395 is a class C CpG ODN specific for mouse TLR9. In vivo studies have demonstrated that C-class ODNs, such ODN 2395, are very potent Th1 adjuvants.

Details

Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG ODNs) have been extensively studied as adjuvants [1]. These CpG motifs are present at a 20-fold greater frequency in bacterial DNA compared to mammalian DNA [2].
CpG ODNs are recognized by TLR9, which is expressed exclusively on human B cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), thereby inducing Th1-dominated immune responses [3].
Pre-clinical studies, conducted in rodents and non-human primates, and human clinical trials have demonstrated that CpG ODNs can significantly improve vaccine-specific antibody responses [1].

Three types of stimulatory CpG ODNs have been identified, types A, B and C, which differ in their immune-stimulatory activities [4-5]. Furthermore, CpG ODNs activate TLR9 in a species-specific manner [6].

ODN 2395 is a type C CpG ODN specific for mouse TLR9 [7]. Type C CpG ODNs contain a full phosphorothioate backbone with one or more CpG dinucleotides. Type C CpG ODNs are potent inducers of IFN-α from pDC and strong B cell activators [8, 9]. In vivo studies have demonstrated that type C ODNs which combine the effects of types A and B ODNs, such ODN 2395, are very potent Th1 adjuvants [10].
