ODN-1668 (ODN1668) is a novel class B CpG ODN (oligodeoxynucleotide) acting as a TLR-9 agonist with immunostimulatory activity. It has the potential to be used as vaccine adjuvant. Sequence: 5'-tccatgacgttcctgatgct-3'. Subcutaneous or intraperitoneal administration of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-9 agonist, ODN 1668 caused moderate fever and anorexia.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Polyclonal B cell activation is promoted by ODN 1668, which also causes TNF-α secretion[1]. |
| ln Vivo | Protein antigen responses are stimulated by ODN 1668 (10 nmol)[1]. Rats treated once with ODN 1668 (1 or 5 mg/kg; ip or sc) experience mild fever and anorexia[2]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: C57BW6 mice[1] Doses: 10 nmol Route of Administration: 300 μg OVA (ovalbumin) in PBS or liposomes containing OVA were injected with or without 10nmol ODN in the hind footpads of C57BW6 mice. A boost of the same inoculum was given at 2 weeks, and 1 week later blood was taken for serum antibody titering. Experimental Results: Strongly potentiated the antibody response and induced class switching toward IgG2a and IgG2b. demonstrated B cell blast formation and a more than twofold increase in B7.2 (CD86) and IL-2 receptor-α (CD25 ) surface expression. Animal/Disease Models: Male Wistar rats with body weights in the range of 175–200 g[2] Doses: 1 mg/kg or 5 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)and subcutaneous (sc) injection, once Experimental Results: Caused moderate fever and anorexia . Induced a significant increase of IL-6. Increased expression of inflammatory genes and activated inflammatory transcription factors. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples. Injection Formulations (e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals). Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] *Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
