Intratracheal synthetic CpG oligodeoxynucleotide causes acute lung injury with systemic inflammatory response
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Bacterial genome is characterized by frequent unmethylated cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) motifs. Deleterious effects can occur when synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) with unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (CpG-ODN) are administered in a systemic fashion. We a...
