CpG ODN (1585), TLR9 ligand (Class A)

Sequence: 5'-ggggtcaaCGttgagggggg-3' (Class A ODN 1585: Bases are phosphorothioate.) Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing unmethylated deoxycytosine-deoxyguanosine (CpG) motif are equivalent to bacterial DNA in the immunostimulatory activity, which can induce innate immunity via Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) in mammals. There are three major classes of CpG ODNs, and each ODN class exhibits different stimulatory effects on immune cell activation. Class A ODNs are potent inducers of IFN-alpha that leads to the plasmacytoid dendritc cell (pDC) maturation. Class B ODNs are relatively weak inducers of type I IFNs but strong stimulators of human B cells and monocyte maturation. Class C ODNs combine elements of both Classes A and B ODNs, which can induce IFN-alpha in pDC and activation of B cells.

Applications Notes

A. CpG ODN 1585-mediated human TLR9 activation in TLR9/NF-kB LeeporterTM – HEK293 cells (Figure 2) . 1. Harvest TLR9/NF-kB LeeporterTM – HEK293 cells and seed cells into a white solid-bottom 96-well microplate in 100 μl of growth medium at 5 x 104 cells/well. 2. Incubate cells at 37°C in a CO2 incubator for overnight. 3. The next day, stimulate cells with various amounts of CpG ODN 1585. 4. Incubate at 37°C in a CO2 incubator for 6-16 hours. 5. Add 30-50 μl of luciferase assay reagent per well. 6. Incubate at room temperature for 1-5 minutes and measure luminescence using a microplate luminometer. B. CpG ODN 1585-mediated mouse TLR9 activation in NF-kB LeeporterTM – RAW 264.7 cells (Figure 3) . 1. Harvest NF-kB LeeporterTM – RAW 264.7 cells and seed cells into a white solid-bottom 96-well microplate in 100 μl of growth medium at 5 x 104 cells/well. 2. Incubate cells at 37°C in a CO2 incubator for overnight. 3. The next day, stimulate cells with various amounts of CpG ODN 1585. 4. Incubate at 37°C in a CO2 incubator for 6-16 hours. 5. Add 30-50 μl of luciferase assay reagent per well. 6. Incubate at room temperature for 1-5 minutes and measure luminescence using a microplate luminometer.
