    摘要: The invention relates to methods and products for inducing IL-10 expression using immunostimulatory nucleic acids. In particular, the invention relates to methods and products for inducing IL-10 expression without inducing high levels of IFN-α expression. IL-10-inducing immunostimulatory nucleic acids preferably include a TC dinucleotide at the 5′ end and a CG dinucleotide towards the 3′ end, but not near the 5′ end. The invention is useful for treating and preventing disorders associated with a Th1 or Th2 immune response or for promoting a T regulatory cell environment suitable for suppressing inappropriate immune responses (e.g., for controlling or suppressing excessive immune responses).

    摘要: Oligonucleotides containing unthylated CpG dinucleotides and therapeutic utilities based on their ability to stimulate an immune response in a subject are disclosed. Also disclosed are therapies for treating diseases associated with immune system activation that are initiated by unthylated CpG dinucleotides in a subject comprising administering to the subject oligonucleotides that do not contain unmethylated CpG sequences (i.e. methylated CpG sequences or no CpG sequence) to outcompete unmethylated CpG nucleic acids for binding. Further disclosed are methylated CpG containing dinucleotides for use antisense therapies or as in vivo hybridization probes, and immunoinhibitory oligonucleotides for use as antiviral therapeutics.

    摘要: Methods and compositions are provided for extending the clinical utility of IFN-α in the treatment of a variety of viral and proliferative disorders. Among other aspects, the invention provides methods which increase the efficacy of IFN-α treatment and reduce IFN-α treatment-related side effects. In addition, methods are provided for supporting the survival and for activating natural interferon producing cells (IPCs) in vitro without exogenous IL-3 or GM-CSF. The invention is based on the discovery that certain CpG and non-CpG ISNAs promote survival and stimulation of IPCs.
