Abstract:
:The effects and mechanism of action of oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing CpG motif (CpG-ODNs) on neuron cells are largely unexamined. Here, we found that CpG-A ODNs but not other types of CpG-ODNs induced neurite retraction and cell apoptosis of rat embryonic neurons in a TLR9-independent manner. These effects of CpG-A ODNs were primarily due to the poly-guanosine at the 3' terminus (3'G-ODNs). Pull-down analysis showed that 3'G-ODNs associated with transcription factor Y-BOX1 (YB-1) to facilitate the translocation of YB-1 into the nucleus via the nuclear localizing sequence of YB-1. YB-1 then interacted with the promoter of F-spondin directly at -45 and -1,375 sites as demonstrated by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis. Binding of YB-1 to F-spondin promoter resulted in downregulation of F-spondin expression. Overexpression of F-spondin rescued the cell death and neurite retraction induced by 3'G-ODNs in embryonic neuron cells. Taken together, these findings suggest that 3'G-ODNs enhance nucleus YB-1 to inhibit F-spondin leading to cell death and neurite retraction of embryonic neuron cells.
