CpG寡脱氧核苷酸

The different classes of ODN elicit different responses in pDC and B cells. Class A strongly stimulates pDC and the production of IFNα. Class B strongly stimulates B cells and antibody production. Class C moderately stimulates both cell types. Class P elicits a response similar to Class A while Class S competitively inhibits the response.
不同类别的CpG ODN 在浆细胞样树突状细胞(pDC)和B细胞中引起的反应不同

CpG寡脱氧核苷酸(英语:CpG oligodeoxynucleotidesCpG ODN)是短的单链DNA分子,其序列包含一个胞嘧啶脱氧核苷酸 ("C"),紧接着一个 鸟嘌呤脱氧核苷酸 ("G"),"p"是指两者之间的磷酸二酯键链接。当CpG寡脱氧核苷酸处于未甲基化的状态时,可以作为免疫增强剂[1]。未甲基化的CpG ODN是一种病原相关分子模式,因为其在脊椎动物的基因组中很稀有,而在微生物的基因组中很丰富。[2]。CpG ODN是公认的模式识别受体(PRR)Toll样受9(TLR9)的配体,TLR9只在人类和其他较高的灵长类动物的B细胞和浆细胞样树突状细胞(pDC)中表达。[3]
