摘要

Background Unmethylated cytosine-guanine ( CpG ) motif-containing oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) have been well characterized as agonists of Toll -like receptor 9 ( TLR9 ). ODNs with a phosphorothioate (PTO) backbone have been studied as TLR9 agonists since natural ODNs with a phosphodiester (PD) backbone are easily degraded by a serum nuclease, which makes them problematic for therapeutic applications. However, ODNs with a PTO backbone have been shown to have undesirable side effects. Thus, our goal was to develop nuclease-resistant, PD ODNs that are effective as human TLR9 (hTLR9) agonists. Results The sequence of ODN2006, a CpG ODN that acts as an hTLR9 agonist, was used as the basic CpG ODN material. The 3'-end modification of ODN2006 with a PD backbone (PD-ODN2006) improved its potential as an hTLR9 agonist because of increased resistance to nucleolytic degradation. Moreover, 3'-end modification with oligonucleotides showed higher induction than modification with biotin, FITC , and amino groups. Further, enhancement of hTLR9 activity was found to be dependent on the number of CpG core motifs (GTCGTT) in the PD ODN containing the 3'-end oligonucleotides. In particular, ODN sequences consisting of two to three linked ODN2006 sequences with a PD backbone (e.g., PD-ODN2006-2006 and PD-ODN2006-2006-2006) acted as effective agonists of hTLR9 even at lower concentrations. Conclusions This study showed that PD-ODN2006-2006 and PD-ODN-2006-2006-2006 can be used as potentially safe agonists for hTLR9 activation instead of CpG ODNs with a PTO backbone. We propose these CpG ODNs consisting of only a PD backbone as a novel class of CpG ODN.
