TLR9 antagonist - Class B inhibitory ODN oligonucleotide

Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) detects unmethylated CpG dinucleotides in bacterial or viral DNA inducing strong immunostimulatory effects.

TLR9 activation can be mimicked by synthetic phosphorothioate-stabilized oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing immune stimulatory “CpG motifs”.

Studies suggest the existence of DNA sequences that can neutralize the stimulatory effect of CpG ODNs.

ODN INH-18 is a linear and class R (‘restricted’) inhibitory ODN. It contains an inhibitory DNA motif consisting of two nucleotide triplets, a proximal CCT and a more distal GGG, spaced from each other by four nucleotides.

ODN INH-18 is a potent inhibitor of TLR9-induced B cells and macrophages [1]. ODN INH-18 strongly blocks TLR9 activation in both human and mouse TLR9-expressing cells.
