Abstract: Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing unmethylated CpG motifs mimic the immunostimulatory activity of bacterial DNA. CpG ODN directly stimulate a variety of immunological effects. CpG ODN is used as vaccine adjuvants, where they increase the vaccine-specific immune responses and the mucosal immune responses. Ongoing clinical studies indicate that CpG ODN are safe and well-tolerated when administered as adjuvants to animals.

Key words: CpG oligodeoxynucleotides; adjuvant; system immunity; mucosal immunity
