摘要:
Pharmaceutical preparations are provided for preventing or treating autoimmune diseases in which the active principle is activated T-lymphocyte cells, specific for the autoimmune disease to be treated, which cells have been treated by incubation with a photoactivatable psoralen cross-linking agent, such as 8-methoxypsoralen, and then photoactivated. The active principle may also be the membrane fraction of such cells. Such preparations may be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions and administered to prevent or treat autoimmune disesases.
摘要:
Compositions for the prevention of, and for the treatment of autoimmune diseases which comprise as active ingredient membrane material shed from autoimmune T lymphocytes, or T lymphocytes activated by a pressure application and release process. There is also provided a process for obtaining such active materials and for preparing pharmaceutical compositions for these.
摘要:
Metabolizable lipid emulsions, such as Intralipid and Lipofundin, are excellent vehicles for peptide therapy of autoimmune diseases and of other TH1 T cell mediated diseases or conditions, as it promotes a TH1 to TH2 cytokine shift. Such emulsions may be used in conjunction with an antigen recognized by inflammatory T cells associated with the pathogenesis of a T cell mediated disease or condition for the therapeutic treatment of such
摘要:
Basic esters of fatty alcohols of the general formula: R1-O—CO-A or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein R1 is C12-C24 alkyl or C10-C24 alkenyl, and A is a residue containing at least one acyclic or cyclic amino group and/or at least one heteroaromatic ring containing a tertiary or quaternary nitrogen atom, are anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents, useful in the treatment of immunologically-mediated inflammation, as adjuvants for antigens involved in both cellular and humoral responses.

摘要:
Composition for the prevention and treatment of autoimmune diseases are provided which comprise as an active ingredient membrane material shed from autoimmune T lymphocytes, or activated T lymphocytes which are treated by a pressure application and releases process. There is also provided processes for obtaining such active materials and for preparing pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
摘要:
There are provided anti-tumor vaccines which contain as active ingredient tumor cells which have been pressure treated so as to augment their antigenic properties, tumor cells treated with cholesteryl hemisuccinate (CHS) and subsequently pressure treated, or plasma membranes from either of, or membrane proteins shed from either of these cells, or a combination of any of these. According to another embodiment, tumor cells are treated with cholesteryl hemisuccinate or by the application and release of pressure, and subsequently with a cross-linking agent. Such cells, plasma membranes obtained from these and proteins shed from the surface of these are effective active ingredients in anti-tumor vaccines.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to an isolated T-Cell Receptor constant domain and to peptides derived therefrom and recombinant constructs encoding same, effective in therapy of T cell mediated inflammatory disease, autoimmunity and graft rejection. Therapeutic and prophylactic vaccine compositions and methods utilizing these proteins and peptides, DNA vaccines encoding same and T cell vaccines thereof are further provided.
摘要:
The present invention is related to a method of treating a T cell-mediated inflammatory autoimmune disease by administering to an individual in need thereof an immunogenic composition comprising a recombinant construct of a nucleic acid sequence encoding heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), or an active fragment thereof, wherein the nucleic acid sequence is operatively linked to one or more transcription control sequences, and wherein the disease is other than insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), thereby treating the disease.
摘要:
A method of treating cancer in an immune-privileged site of a subject in need thereof is provided. The method comprises systemically administering to an area outside the immune-privileged site of the subject, a therapeutically effective amount of naive, viable cells of a tumor of the subject, the tumor being in the immune-privileged site so as to generate an immune response in the subject, thereby treating the cancer in the immune-privileged site of the subject.
