CpG ODN, type A (mouse) - TLR9-based vaccine adjuvant

TLR9 activation with ODN 1585
TLR9 activation with ODN 1585

ODN 1585 VacciGrade™ is a Class A CpG oligonucleotide (ODN), specifically designed for mouse Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) [1]. CpG ODNs are short synthetic single-stranded DNA molecules containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (CpG motifs). These unmethylated CpG motifs mimic microbial DNA and act as immunostimulants via TLR9 [2].

ODN 1585 has been optimized to indirectly activate natural killer (NK) cells while it has little effect on cytokine secretion or B cell proliferation [1]. ODN 1585 successfully induces regression of established melanomas in mice due to NK lytic activity [1]. 

In HEK-Blue™ mTLR9 reporter cells, ODN 1585 efficiently activates mTLR9. Interestingly, ODN 1585 can activate the human (h)TLR9-mediated NF-κB and IRF pathways as assessed using InvivoGen's THP1-Dual™ hTLR9 reporter cell line. This monocytic cell line overexpresses the human TLR9 gene as well as features two reporter genes for the NF-κB-inducible SEAP and IRF-inducible Lucia luciferase (see figures).

 

ODN 1585 VacciGrade™ is a high-quality pre-clinical grade, suitable for in vivo use.
A standard grade ODN 1585 for in vitro assays is also available.

ODN 1585 VacciGrade™​ is for research use only, and not for human or veterinary use. It is not a pharmaceutical preparation fit for vaccine manufacturing.

VacciGrade™

VacciGrade™ is a high-quality pre-clinical grade. VacciGrade™ products are filter-sterilized (0.2 µm) and filled under strict aseptic conditions in a clean room*. The absence of bacterial contamination is assessed by a sterility test using a pharmacopeia-derived assay. The level of bacterial contaminants (endotoxins and lipoproteins) in each lot is verified using a LAL assay and/or a TLR2 and TLR4 reporter assay.
*Except for LPS VacciGrade™, which is prepared in a laminar flow hood dedicated to LPS.

CpG ODNs

Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG ODNs), such as ODN 1018, 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 the Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), which is expressed 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, as well as 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]. 

 

Toll-like receptor 9

The Toll-like Receptor 9 (TLR9) is an endosomal receptor that triggers NF-κB- and interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-mediated pro-inflammatory responses upon the recognition of unmethylated cytosine-phosphorothioate-guanosine (CpG) forms of DNA [6-8]. Unmethylated CpG dinucleotides are a hallmark of microbial (bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasite) DNA, as well as mitochondrial self-DNA [8,9]. These TLR9 agonists can be mimicked by synthetic oligonucleotides containing CpG motifs (CpG ODNs), which have been extensively studied to improve adaptive immune responses in the context of vaccination [6,8].

TLR9 is mainly expressed in subsets of Dendritic Cells and B cells of all mammals. In rodents, but not in humans, TLR9 is also expressed in monocytes and macrophages [8]. The structure of the receptor varies by 24% between human TLR9 (hTLR9) and mouse TLR9 (mTLR9) [8]. They recognize different CpG motifs, the optimal sequences being GTCGTT and GACGTT for hTLR9 and mTLR9, respectively [10].
