CpG ODN佐剂促进HBsAg疫苗诱导小鼠细胞免疫应答的探讨

目的 探讨cpG ODN对重组乙型肝炎表面抗原（HBsAg）诱导小鼠细胞免疫应答的影响。方法HBsAg和HBsAg＋CpG ODN分别肌肉注射免疫Balb／c小鼠后,从淋巴组织（脾和淋巴结）和非淋巴组织（肺）分离淋巴细胞,体外经HBsAg抗原刺激后,利用ELISA检测细胞培养液中IFN-γ的水平,再利用流式细胞仪在单个细胞水平上检测IFN-γ^＋细胞的频率,分析IFN-7^＋细胞亚群。结果对照组和HBsAg免疫组IFN-γ产生的水平很低,当HBsAg加强免疫1～2次后,IFN-γ表达仍然没有明显升高;而CpG ODN＋HBsAg免疫1次或加强免疫后,CpG显著促进HBsAg诱导的IFN-γ产生。进一研究结果表明CpG促进HBsAg诱导淋巴器官和非淋巴器官内CD4^＋和CD8^＋T细胞IFN-γ的表达。结论CpG免疫佐剂不仅能诱导细胞免疫应答同时也诱导体液免疫应答,提示CpG ODN可以用于HBsAg预防和治疗性佐剂。

CpG ODN enhances uptake of bacteria by mouse macrophages

Unmethylated CpG motif in synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG ODN) or bacterial DNA is well recognized for its role in innate immunity, including enhancing production of NO and cytokines by macrophages. In the present study, we demonstrated the effect of CpG ODN on the phagocytic uptake of bacteria by macrophages. Flow cytometric analysis of mouse macrophages (RAW 264.7) incubated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labelled Burkholderia pseudomallei, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi or Escherichia coli showed that CpG ODN increased the uptake of these bacteria by mouse macrophages. The enhancement of bacterial uptake by CpG ODN was concentration-dependent. The increase of bacterial uptake by CpG ODN-activated macrophages shown above is consistent with the result of bacteria internalization study using a standard antibiotic protection assay. There was also an increase in the rate and degree of multi-nucleated giant cell formation, phenomena which have been shown previously to be unique when the cells were infected with B. pseudomallei. These observations may provide significant insights for future investigation into host cell-pathogen interaction.     

In vivo immunostimulatory effects of CpG ODN in newborn piglets

The in vivo immunoadjuvant effects of CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODN) have been studied extensively in mice and relatively fewer studies have been done in other species. But so far, the innate immunostimulatory effects of CpG ODN have been demonstrated just in mouse, monkey, sheep and chicken in some reports. The purpose of this study is to determine the potential effects of CpG ODN in newborn piglets. The proportion of CD4(+), CD8(+) T lymphocytes subpopulations and the major histocompability complex (MHC-II) antigen expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and IFN-gamma in serum were tested at various time-points. The results suggested that, the CD4(+)/CD8(+) ratio decreased over time in piglets inoculated with phosphate buffer saline (PBS) alone, however, it was stable in CpG ODN-inoculated piglets; the use of CpG ODN can prevent effectively the reduction of the proportion of CD4(+) T lymphocytes. The MHC-II antigen expression and IFN-gamma level of CpG ODN-injected piglets were significantly higher than those of PBS-injected piglets. The ODN-induced responses were stronger in animals injected with CpG ODN formulated in 30% emulsigen than in PBS. The innate immunostimulatory activity of CpG ODN appeared to be in dose-dependent manner. These in vivo data demonstrate for the first time that CpG ODN can stimulate innate immune system in newborn piglets.     

CpG ODN对rHBsAg免疫小鼠淋巴细胞增殖反应的影响

目的：进一步探讨以合成含CpG基序的寡核苷酸（CpG ODN）作为免疫增强剂与重组乙型肝炎表面抗原（rHBsAg）联合免疫小鼠,观察其淋巴细胞增殖反应效应.方法：经后腿胫骨前肌初次免疫BALB/c小鼠两周后加强免疫1次;MTT和3H-TdR掺入法分别检测免疫小鼠胸腺及脾脏淋巴细胞增殖反应.结果：加CpG ODN组与单纯注射抗原及疫苗组相比,淋巴细胞增殖反应显著增强.而且,除胸腺特异性增殖中的CpG加疫苗组和疫苗组外,其他各实验组与对照组相比,淋巴细胞增殖反应也都显著增强.结论：CpG ODN能够明显刺激小鼠胸腺及脾脏淋巴细胞增殖反应,显示出强而有效的免疫增强效应,有望成为一种新型的免疫佐剂.     

CpG ODN对rHBsAg免疫小鼠脾细胞周期与凋亡的影响

目的：研究合成含CpG基序的寡脱氧核苷酸（CpGODN）对重组乙型肝炎表面抗原（rHBsAg）免疫小鼠脾淋巴细胞细胞周期及细胞凋亡的效应。方法：采用BALB／c小鼠作为免疫实验动物，经后腿胫骨前肌免疫两次，FACS法检测脾细胞的细胞周期与细胞凋亡。结果：FACS检测结果显示，加CpGODN各组与不加CpGODN相应组比较，脾细胞细胞周期明显由G0／G1期向S期转化；细胞凋亡则呈现降低趋势。结论：CpGODN可以有效刺激免疫小鼠脾淋巴细胞细胞周期由G0／G1期向S期转化，并且有抑制细胞凋亡的效应。     

Active immunization of homosexual men using a recombinant hepatitis B vaccine

Twenty homosexual men [13 anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive, seven anti-HIV negative] without HBsAg, anti-HBs, and anti-HBc were vaccinated with three 20 micrograms doses of a recombinant hepatitis B vaccine. All anti-HIV-positive homosexuals were nonresponders independent of the initial number of CD4-positive cells. Among seven anti-HIV-negative individuals, five responded. After three doses of the vaccine, CD4-positive cells fell in anti-HIV positive individuals by 22.4%. A similar fall in CD4-positive cells of an average 24.9% was noted in 17 matching, but nonvaccinated, anti-HIV-positive homosexuals. The study indicates that the efficacy of vaccination in anti-HIV-positive individuals is questionable. There is, however, no evidence that vaccination against hepatitis B might be harmful to anti-HIV-positive subjects.     

一种C型CpGODN对柯萨奇病毒感染小鼠的作用初探

目的:研究自行设计的C型CpG ODN(D-SL01)对柯萨奇病毒感染的潜在治疗作用.方法:用柯萨奇病毒体外感染人HeLa细胞的体外模型观察CpG ODN刺激的人PBMC培养上清的抗病毒作用;利用柯萨奇病毒感染小鼠模型观察腹腔内给予CpG ODN对小鼠体重及心肌病变的影响.结果:D-SL01刺激的人PBMC培养上清不仅能抵抗VSV感染Veto E6细胞,也能明显抵抗柯萨奇病毒对HeLa细胞的感染,其作用强度与A-型CpG ODN 2216相似.然而,当腹腔内连续给药6 d后,D-SL01使柯萨奇病毒感染小鼠的质量下降及心肌病变程度与对照组小鼠相比加重.结论:研究结果提示:体内应用CpG ODN的机制特别是用于病毒感染性疾病时,应该充分注意给药时机、途径及剂量.

Limited effect of CpG ODN in preventing type 1 diabetes in NOD mice

Type 1 diabetes is considered as Th1 cell mediated autoimmune disease and the suppression of Th1 cells or the activation of Th2 cells has been regarded as a plausible immunologic intervention for the prevention of type 1 diabetogenesis in a rodent model. CpG ODN is an immunostimulatory sequence primarily present in bacterial DNA, viral DNA and BCG. CpG ODN is conventionally classified as a Th1 cell activator, which has been clinically applied to cancer, allergy and infectious disease. Recently, there was a promising report of that CpG ODN administration suppressed the development of type 1 diabetes in NOD mice by inducing Th2 cell mediated cytokine. However, the antidiabetogenic effect of CpG ODN on NOD mice is controversial. Thus, two studies were serially undertaken with various kinds of CpG motif to find a more optimal sequence and administration method. In the first study, CpG ODN was vaccinated four times and pancreatic inflammation and the quantity of serum insulin subsequently evaluated. In the second study, the amounts of IFN gamma and IL-4 in sera were measured as representative cytokines of Th1 and Th2 cells, respectively. As a result, vaccination or continuous injection of CpG ODN failed to show a preventive effect on type 1 diabetogenesis in NOD mice. Structural differences of CpG ODN also had no affect on the result. CpG ODN also consistently showed affect on the pancreatic pathology. The productions of IFN gamma and IL-4 were detected only in the K and D type CpG ODN administration groups. Comparison of the two cytokines leads to the conclusion that CpG ODN generated a Th1-weighted response in both study groups. It was assumed that CpG ODN failed to produce Th2-weighted cytokine milieu, which can overcome the genetically determined phenotype of NOD mice. Given these results, it was concluded that the immunotherapeutic application of CpG ODN on Type 1 diabetes had clear limitations.     

Modulation of malignant B cell activation and apoptosis by bcl-2 antisense ODN and immunostimulatory CpG ODN

Inhibition of bcl-2 expression by antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) might render bcl-2 overexpressing malignant B cells more susceptible to chemotherapy. ODN containing unmethylated CG dinucleotides (CpG) are known to activate B cells. We studied the effects of two bcl-2 antisense ODN, with (G3139) or without CG dinucleotides (NOV 2009) within the sequence, and the effects of a nonantisense, CpG-containing ODN (ODN 2006) on activation and apoptosis of malignant B cell lines and primary B-CLL cells. Without cationic lipids, no antisense-mediated inhibition of bcl-2 synthesis was achieved with G3139 and NOV 2009. Instead, G3139, but not NOV 2009, induced similar changes as ODN 2006 in proliferation, expression of costimulatory and antigen-presenting molecules, as well as in bcl-2 and bcl-xL levels of primary B-CLL cells. G3139 and ODN 2006 inhibited in vitro, spontaneous apoptosis in B-CLL cells of patients with high serum thymidine kinase activity (s-TK, marker for proliferative activity of malignant B cells), whereas in patients with low s-TK activity, apoptosis was induced. In conclusion, our results suggest that modulation of malignant B cell apoptosis by G3139 depends on its immunostimulatory properties rather than on antisense-mediated reduction of bcl-2 expression. Immunostimulatory CpG ODN may have a therapeutic potential in patients with B-CLL, especially those with low s-TK activity.
