Previous studies have shown that the action of bacterial or
synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide (oligo-DNA) on mouse NK cells to produce
IFN-
is mediated mostly by monocytes/macrophages activated by
olig-DNA. However, its action on human IFN-
-producing cells has not
been well investigated. In the present study, we examined the effect of
oligo-DNAs on highly purified human NK and T cells. Bacillus
Calmette-Guérin-derived or synthetic oligo-DNAs induced NK cells
to produce IFN-
with an increased CD69 expression, and the autocrine
IFN-
enhanced their cytotoxicity. The response of NK cells to
oligo-DNAs was enhanced when the cells were activated with IL-2, IL-12,
or anti-CD16 Ab. T cells did not produce IFN-
in response to
oligo-DNAs but did respond independently of IL-2 when they were
stimulated with anti-CD3 Ab. In the action of oligo-DNAs, the
palindrome sequence containing unmethylated 5'-CpG-3' motif(s) appeared
to play an important role in the IFN-
-producing ability of NK cells.
The changes of base composition inside or outside the palindrome
sequence altered its activity: The homooligo-G-flanked GACGATCGTC
was the most potent IFN-
inducer for NK cells. The CG palindrome was
also important for activated NK and T cells in their IFN-
production, although certain nonpalindromes acted on them. Among the
sequences tested, cell activation- or cell lineage-specific sequences
were likely; i.e., palindrome ACCGGT and nonpalindrome AACGAT were
favored by activated NK cells but not by unactivated NK cells or
activated T cells. These results indicate that oligo-DNAs containing CG
palindrome act directly on human NK cells and activated T cells to
induce IFN-
production.
