ODN 1018 (1018 ISS) is a TLR9 agonist and immune modulator. ODN 1018 exhibits adjuvant activity and augments CD8+ T cell responses with LNP-encapsulated OVA peptides. ODN 1018 triggers sustained suppression of allergic airway inflammation. ODN 1018 can be used for the research of allergic asthma and systemic lupus erythematosus.

    Description

    ODN 1018 (1018 ISS) is a TLR9 agonist and immune modulator. ODN 1018 exhibits adjuvant activity and augments CD8+ T cell responses with LNP-encapsulated OVA peptides. ODN 1018 triggers sustained suppression of allergic airway inflammation. ODN 1018 can be used for the research of allergic asthma and systemic lupus erythematosus[1][2][3].

    IC50 & Target

    TLR9

     

    In Vitro

    ODN 1018 (0.7 μM) stimulates proliferation and IL-6 production in purified human B cells, and this stimulation is inhibited by IRS at 0.35-0.7 μM[3].
    ODN 1018 (0.7 μM; 48 h) activates mouse splenocytes to produce IL-6 via TLR9, and this activation is dose-dependently inhibited by IRS 869 at 0.0875-0.7 μM[3].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    ODN1018 (10 μg per mouse; s.c.; days 0 and 14) acts as an adjuvant to enhance OVA-specific CD8+ T cell responses by 7-fold in C57BL/6 mice[1].
    ODN 1018 (20 μg; intranasally; weekly; 1-17 weeks) induces sustained suppression of allergic airway inflammation in ragweed-sensitized mice, with 5 weekly doses sufficient for durable effects associated with TReg induction[2].
    ODN 1018 (50 μg; s.c.) induces a lethal TLR9-mediated inflammatory response in D-galactosamine-pretreated BALB/c mice[3].
    ODN 1018 (25 μg; s.c.) stimulates TLR9-mediated cytokine (IL-6, IL-12) production in BALB/c mice[3].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: BALB/c (6-8 week old female, ragweed-sensitized allergic asthma model)[2]
    Dosage: 20 μg
    Administration: intranasally; weekly; 1, 3, 5, 8, 12, 13, 16, or 17 weeks
    Result: Suppressed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) eosinophilia, BAL IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 levels, and lung Th2-associated genes (Il13, Ccl11, Gob5, Fizz1) through 13 subsequent weekly ragweed exposures (12 weekly treatments).
    Induced significant, lasting reduction of Th2-mediated responses (5 weekly treatments); Upregulated lung regulatory T cell (TReg)-associated genes (Foxp3, Il10, Tgfb1, Lag3, Tnfrsf4, Il2ra) and increased TReg activity (CD4+CD25+ T cells from treated mice suppressed CD4+CD25- T cell proliferation more effectively than those from ragweed-only mice) (16 weekly treatments).
    Induced a moderate Th1 shift (progressive increase in lung Ifng, Cxcl9, Cxcl10 expression) but Th2 suppression did not require IFN-γ; Prevented ragweed-pulsed bone marrow dendritic cells from restoring Th2 responses.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
