Unmethylated CpG-ODN are known to enhance Th1-type immune response. However, optimal sequences of CpG-ODN for activating Th1-type immune cells vary among species. It is necessary to identify the effective CpG-ODN sequences in each species. In the present study, in order to identify the sequences of CpG-ODN that produce fIFN-gamma in cats, 14 kinds of ODN were synthesized and examined regarding their ability to induce fIFN-gamma in feline PBMC and splenocytes. It was shown that some CpG-ODN significantly induced fIFN-gamma production in splenocytes, but not in PBMC. We found that three kinds of CpG-ODN (no. 2, 5 '-ggTGCATCGATGCAGggggG-3 '; no. 5, 5 '-ggTGCGTCGACGCAGggggG-3 '; no. 10, 5 '-ggTGCTACGTAGCAGggggG-3 ') specifically and significantly induced fIFN-gamma production in feline splenocytes. The reverse sequences, GpC-ODN, do not cause significant fIFN-gamma production. The fIFN-gamma production inductivity of a mixture of CpG-ODN nos. 2, 5 and 10 was higher than those of individual CpG-ODN. When the CpG-ODN mixture was encapsulated in an MCL and administrated to cats, the number of fIFN-gamma+ cells in PBMC significantly increased. CpG-ODN nos. 2, 5 and 10 should be useful to elicit a Th1-type immune response as a vaccine adjuvant in cats.
