ABOUT
CpG ODN, type C (human/mouse) - TLR9-based vaccine adjuvant
ODN 2395 VacciGrade™ is a preclinical formulation of ODN 2395, a class C CpG oligonucleotide (ODN), activator of human and murine Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) [1].ODN 2395 is a short synthetic single-stranded DNA molecule containing an entire phosphorothioate backbone (nuclease-resistant) and palindromic CpG motifs capable of forming secondary structures. These CpG motifs mimic microbial DNA and act as immunostimulants via TLR9.
Class C CpG ODNs, such as ODN 2395, combine classes A and B features. They contain a complete phosphorothioate (PS) backbone and a CpG-containing palindromic motif. They strongly induce B cell stimulation as well as IFN-α production in plasmacytoid dendritic cells [2]. Moreover, they generate Th1-dominant immune responses and thus, are potential adjuvants for human vaccines to elicit protective Th1 immunity [2].
InvivoGen's ODN 2395 VacciGrade™ is a strong TLR9 agonist as verified using our HEK-Blue™ TLR9 reporter cell lines expressing human or mouse TLR9 (see figure). Moreover, ODN 2395 VacciGrade™ activates the hTLR9-dependent NF-κB and IRF pathways, as assessed using our THP1-Dual™ hTLR9 reporter cell line expressing two reporter genes, for& the NF-κB-inducible SEAP and IRF-inducible Lucia luciferase, as well as hTLR9 (see figure).
VacciGrade™ is a high-quality pre-clinical grade, suitable for in vivouse.
A standard grade ODN 2395 for in vitro assays is also available.

VacciGrade™
VacciGrade™ is a high-quality pre-clinical grade, suitable for in vivo studies. VacciGrade™ products are filter-sterilized (0.2 µm) and filled under strict aseptic conditions in a clean room. The absence of bacterial contamination is assessed by a sterility test using a pharmacopeia-derived assay.

CpG ODNs
Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG ODNs), such as ODN 1018, have been extensively studied as adjuvants [1]. These CpG motifs are present at a 20-fold greater frequency in bacterial DNA compared to mammalian DNA [2]. CpG ODNs are recognized by the Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), which is expressed on human B cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), thereby inducing Th1-dominated immune responses [3]. Pre-clinical studies, conducted in rodents and non-human primates, as well as human clinical trials, have demonstrated that CpG ODNs can significantly improve vaccine-specific antibody responses [1]. Three types of stimulatory CpG ODNs have been identified, types A, B, and C, which differ in their immune-stimulatory activities [4-5].
Toll-like receptor 9
The Toll-like Receptor 9 (TLR9) is an endosomal receptor that triggers NF-κB- and interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-mediated pro-inflammatory responses upon the recognition of unmethylated cytosine-phosphorothioate-guanosine (CpG) forms of DNA [6-8]. Unmethylated CpG dinucleotides are a hallmark of microbial (bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasite) DNA, as well as mitochondrial self-DNA [8,9]. These TLR9 agonists can be mimicked by synthetic oligonucleotides containing CpG motifs (CpG ODNs), which have been extensively studied to improve adaptive immune responses in the context of vaccination [6,8].
TLR9 is mainly expressed in subsets of Dendritic Cells and B cells of all mammals. In rodents, but not in humans, TLR9 is also expressed in monocytes and macrophages [8]. The structure of the receptor varies by 24% between human TLR9 (hTLR9) and mouse TLR9 (mTLR9) [8]. They recognize different CpG motifs, the optimal sequences being GTCGTT and GACGTT for hTLR9 and mTLR9, respectively [10].
