The counter regulatory response induced by CpG oligonucleotides prevents bleomycin induced pneumopathy

Bleomycin (BLM) induces life-threatening pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis in 20% of patients, limiting its use as a chemotherapeutic agent. Oligonucleotides expressing immunostimulatory CpG motifs (CpG ODN) stimulate cells that express Toll-like receptor 9 to initiate an inflammatory response. Thi...
