Polyalkylene oxide-conjugated hemoglobin solutions having a molecular weight greater than about 85,000 daltons and a degree of substitution of which substantially avoids clinically significant nephrotoxicity associated with hemoglobinuria in mammals. A method of simultaneously fractionating and purifying polyalkylene oxide-conjugated hemoglobins is al so disclosed.
摘要:
Hemoglobin-containing solutions containing polyalkyene oxide-conjugated hemoglobin having a molecular weight greater than about 85,000 daltons and a degree of substitution of at least five polyalkylene oxide conjugates per hemoglobin molecule are described that are not associated with hemoglobinuria in mammals. A method of simultaneously fractionating and purifying polyalkylene oxide-conjugated hemoglobins is also disclosed.

The present invention is directed to nanoparticle compositions for maintaining organ, tissue and cellular viability when such are separated from normal physiological supports. Compositions containing the nanoparticle compositions and methods of preserving organs such as kidneys, both in vivo and ex vivo, are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of reducing side-effects associated with administering oxygen-carrying proteins to mammals is disclosed. The method includes:a) reacting an oxygen-carrying protein with a substantially non-antigenic polymer to form a oxygen-carrying protein-substantially non-antigenic polymer conjugate; andb) administering the oxygen-carrying protein-substantially non-antigenic polymer conjugate to a mammal in need of the oxygen-carrying protein. Preferred oxygen-carrying proteins include recombinantly prepared hemoglobins and preferred non-antigenic polymers include polyethylene glycol.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to methods of treating CD4+ T cell lymphopenia in HIV-infected patients. The methods include administering an effective mount of adenosine deaminase or related enzymatic material to a patient in need thereof. In preferred aspects of the invention, the method is employed in conjunction with HIV-infected patients having CD4+ T cell levels of less than about 200/.mu.l. Effective amounts of the enzyme range from about 5 to about 50 IU/kg/week. In one particularly preferred aspect of the invention, the adenosine deaminase is conjugated to one or more strands of polyethylene glycol to prolonged activity in vivo.
