The toll-like receptors (TLRs) 7, 8, and 9 stimulate innate immune responses upon recognizing pathogen nucleic acids. Certain GU- or AU-rich RNA sequences were described to differentiate between human TLR7- and TLR8-mediated immune effects. Those single-stranded RNA molecules require endosomal delivery for stabilization against ribonucleases.

Several classes of CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) with different immune stimulatory profiles were recently identified: the A-, B- and C-classes. In this study, we investigated the CpG-dependent stimulation of IFN-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10 or CXCL10) in different human immune cell types. CpG ODNs induced IP-10 in monocytes, pDCs and in B cells.
