摘要:
Antisense oligonucleotide compounds, compositions and methods are provided for down regulating the expression of TLR7. The compositions comprise antisense oligonucleotides targeted to nucleic acids encoding TLR7. The compositions may also comprise antisense oligonucleotides targeted to nucleic acids encoding TLR7 in combination with other therapeutic and/or prophylactic compounds and/or compositions. Methods of using these compounds and compositions for down-regulating TLR7 expression and for prevention or treatment of diseases wherein modulation of TLR7 expression would be beneficial are provided.
摘要:
The invention relates to the therapeutic use of oligonucleotides as immunostimulatory agents in immunotherapy applications. More particularly, the invention provides immunomers and an immunostimulatory oligonucleotides for use in methods for generating an immune response or for treating a patient in need of immunostimulation. The immunomers and an immunostimulatory oligonucleotides of the invention preferably comprise novel purines. The immunomers according to the invention further comprise at least two oligonucleotides linked at their 3′ ends, internucleoside linkages or functionalized nucleobase or sugar to a non-nucleotidic linker, at least one of the oligonucleotides being an immunomodulatory oligonucleotide and having an accessible 5′ end.
摘要:
The invention relates to modulation of the immune system. More particularly, the invention relates to modulating the immune system through the use of oligonucleotide-derived compounds. The invention provides immunostimulatory agents that are less expensive to make than existing immunostimulatory oligonucleotides. The immunostimulatory agents according to the invention can, in preferred embodiments, cause immune stimulation across species lines.

摘要:
The invention provides immunostimulatory oligonucleotides having at least one CpG dinucleotide and a secondary structure at the 5′- or 3′-end. These oligonucleotides have either reduced or improved immunostimulatory properties. The invention establishes that 5′-terminal secondary structures affect immunostimulatory activity significantly more than those at the 3′-end. The invention also provides methods for increasing or decreasing the immunostimulatory activity of a CpG-containing nucleic acid.
