Binding of oligoguanylate to scavenger receptors is required for oligonucleotides to augment NK cell activity and induce IFN. Research Abstract Details
Specific palindromic sequences in synthetic oligonucleotides are required to induce IFN and augment IFN-mediated natural killer activity. To study the mechanism of IFN induction by oligonucleotides containing palindromic sequences, we investigated the possible target molecules of the oligonucleotides. Oligo-1, a 30mer single-stranded oligonucleotide with oligoG sequences next to the active palindromic sequence (AACGTT), had more activity than oligonucleotides with oligoA, oligoC, or oligoT sequences. The activity of oligo-1 was inhibited by a guanine homo-oligomer (G30), dextran sulfate, and polyvinyl sulfate. Oligo-1 bound to plastic-adherent mouse splenocytes, and the binding was inhibited by G30, dextran sulfate, and polyvinyl sulfate. Oligo-1 inhibited acetyl-LDL binding to the scavenger receptor on mouse splenocytes. These findings suggest that the binding of an extrapalindromic sequence to the scavenger receptor is required for the immunostimulatory activity of oligo-1.
