Abstract

Unmethylated cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) dinucleotides in microbial DNA sequences activate Toll-like receptor (TLR) 9, and previous studies have shown that oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) containing CpG in specific base sequence motifs (CpG ODNs) can reiterate the majority of the immunomodulatory effects produced by bacterial DNA. Many of the manifestations in allergic diseases are primarily due to T helper (T(h))-2 cell-type responses. CpG ODNs can induce T(h)1 and T-regulatory (T(reg)) cell-type cytokines that can suppress the T(h)2 response. The therapeutic application of TLR9 has been explored extensively in recent years, and many studies are being conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of TLR9 agonists in various diseases, including atopic and infectious diseases, and cancer. Studies in murine models have shown that the development of atopic airway disease can be prevented by treatment with CpG ODNs. Various clinical trials are currently ongoing to determine the efficacy of CpG ODNs as a therapeutic tool for atopic diseases. In this review, we discuss the therapeutic application of CpG ODNs in allergy and asthma. CpG ODNs may be used alone or as an adjuvant to immunotherapy to treat these disorders.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
