CpG incorporated DNA microparticles for elevated immune stimulation for antigen presenting cells

As emerging evidence supports the immune stimulating capability of the CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN), CpG-based adjuvants have been widely used. For efficient induction of immune responses, current issues affecting the use of nucleic acid-based adjuvants, e.g. stability in physiological conditions, delivery to immune cells, and successful release within the phagolysosome, should be addressed. Here, we present CpG-based DNA microparticles...
