Abstract

Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG-ODNs) function as powerful immune adjuvants by activating macrophages, dendritic cells, and B cells. However, the molecular recognition mechanism that initiates signaling in response to CpG-ODN has not fully been identified. We show in this study that peritoneal macrophages from SCID mice having mutations in the catalytic subunit of DNA-protein kinase (DNA-PKcs) were almost completely defective in the production of IL-10 and in ERK activation when treated with CpG-ODN. In contrast, IL-12 p70 production significantly increased. Furthermore, small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of DNA-PKcs expression in the mouse monocyte/macrophage cell line RAW264.7 led to reduced IL-10 production and ERK activation by CpG-ODN. IL-10 and IL-12 p70 production, but not ERK activation, are blocked by chloroquine, an inhibitor of endosomal acidification. Endosomal translocation of CpG-ODN in a complex with cationic liposomes consisting of 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP) (CpG-DOTAP-liposomes) decreased IL-10 production and ERK activation, whereas the endosomal escape of CpG-ODN in a complex with cationic liposomes consisting of DOTAP and dioleyl-phos...Continue Reading
