Dendritic cells (DC) excel at presenting antigen to T cells and thus make a key contribution to the induction of primary and secondary immune responses. DC matured in vitro and pulsed with antigen show promise for the immunotherapy of cancer and infectious diseases. Synthetic oligonucleotides (ODN) expressing immunomodulatory "CpG motifs" were found to boost APC function in mice. Current results demonstrate that the recently identified "D" type of CpG ODN stimulate human peripheral blood monocytes to mature into functionally active DC over 2-4 days. The transition from monocyte to DC is characterized by the upregulation of CD83, CD86, CD80, CD40 and the down-regulation of CD14. These DC support antigen-specific humoral and cellular responses in vitro and in vivo. The differentiation of these monocytes is mediated by plasmacytoid DC, which respond to D type ODN by secreting IFN-alpha. Since D type CpG motifs are present in bacterial and viral DNA, the maturation of monocytes into functional DC may reflect a physiologic response that can be harnessed therapeutically through the use of CpG ODN.

CpG DNA: recognition by and activation of monocytes.
Klinman, DM; Takeshita, F; Gursel, I; Leifer, C; Ishii, KJ; Verthelyi, D; Gürsel, Mayda (2002-07-01)
Unmethylated CpG motifs present in bacterial DNA rapidly trigger an innate immune response characterized by the activation of Ig- and cytokine-secreting cells. Synthetic oligonucleotides (ODNs) containing CpG motifs mimic this activity, triggering monocytes to proliferate, secrete and/or differentiate. Analysis of hundreds of novel ODNs led to the identification of two structurally distinct classes of CpG motif that differentially activate human monocytes. ODNs of the "K"-type interact with Toll-like recept...
CpG oligodeoxynucleotides protect normal and SIV-infected macaques from Leishmania infection.
Verthelyi, D; Gürsel, Mayda; Kenney, RT; Lifson, JD; Liu, S; Mican, J; Klinman, DM (The American Association of Immunologists, 2003-05-01)
Oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs (CpG ODNs) mimic microbial DNA and activate effectors of the innate immune response, which limits the spread of pathogens and promotes an adaptive immune response. CpG ODNs have been shown to protect mice from infection with intracellular pathogens. Unfortunately, CpG motifs that optimally stimulate humans are only weakly active in mice, mandating the use of nonhuman primates to monitor the activity and safety of "human" CpG ODNs in vivo. This study demonstrates t...
Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Response to CpG ODN Correlates with CXCL16 Expression and Is Inhibited by ox-LDL
Gürsel, Mayda; GÜRSEL, İHSAN (Hindawi Limited, 2013-01-01)
Structurally distinct classes of synthetic CpG oligonucleotides (ODN) differentially activate human immune cells. K-type ODN trigger plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) to differentiate and produce TNF alpha. In contrast, D-type ODN stimulate large amounts of IFN alpha secretion from pDCs. The cell-surface receptor CXCL16 was previously shown to influence the nature and specificity of CpG ODN-induced immune activation. Here, we evaluated the expression and function of CXCL16 on pDC from healthy volunteers. ...
Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Activation Signals Modulate Cytoskeletal Dynamics and Mechanical Force Generation
Pathni, Aashli; Özçelikkale, Altuğ; Rey-Suarez, Ivan; Li, Lei; Davis, Scott; Rogers, Nate; Xiao, Zhengguo; Upadhyaya, Arpita (2022-03-01)
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play an integral role in the adaptive immune response by killing infected cells. Antigen presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells, present pathogenic peptides to the T cell receptor on the CTL surface and co-stimulatory signals required for complete activation. Activated CTLs secrete lytic granules containing enzymes that trigger target cell death at the CTL-target contact, also known as the immune synapse (IS). The actin and microtubule cytoskeletons are instrumental ...
Differential immune activation following encapsulation of immunostimulatory CpG oligodeoxynucleotide in nanoliposomes.
Erikçi, E; Gürsel, Mayda; Gürsel, I (2011-02-01)
The immunogenicity of a vaccine formulation is closely related to the effective internalization by the innate immune cells that provide prolonged and simultaneous delivery of antigen and adjuvant to relevant antigen presenting cells. Endosome associated TLR9 recognizes microbial unmethylated CpG DNA. Clinical applications of TLR9 ligands are significantly hampered due to their pre-mature in vivo digestion and rapid clearance. Liposome encapsulation is a powerful tool to increase in vivo stability as well as...
