摘要:
This invention describes a method of preventing and treating inflammatory skin diseases by topical application of aurin tricarboxylic acid and its derivatives. Such diseases are characterized by immune attack, especially involving aberrant complement activation. The diseases include, but are not limited to, androgenetic alopecia (baldness), seborrheic dermatitis/dandruff, allergic dermatitis, primary cicatricial alopecia, pemphigus, psoriasis, discoid lupus erythematosis, and dermatitus herpetiformis.
摘要:
Dimers of acetyl salicylic acid, including 4,4′-diacetoxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3,3′-dicarboxylic acid (DAS-1) and 5,5′-methylenebis(2-acetoxybenzoic acid) (DAS-2) are provided. Methods of blocking the C3 convertase stage of the alternative complement pathway, preventing formation of the membrane attack complex of complement, and preventing or treating a complement-mediated disorder in a mammal including the step of administering dimers of acetyl salicylic acid are also provided.
摘要:
Selective inhibition of the membrane attack complex of complement in a mammalian species, preferably human, with components of the aurin tricarboxylic acid complex of less than 1 kilodalton in molecular weight. Preferred inhibitors are aurin tricarboxylic acid, aurin quadracarboxylic acid and aurin hexacarboxylic acid. Preferred disease to be treated by elective inhibition of the membrane attack complex of complement are age-related macular degeneration, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinemia, malaria infection and multiple sclerosis.
