摘要:
A new, human proteinaceous lymphokine denominated cytotoxicity triggering factor (CTF) is disclosed as are methods of its preparation and use. Substantially pure CTF has an apparent M.sub.r of about 55 kd, is capable of inducing secretion of a tumor-killing factor containing tumor necrosis factor-alpha from primed monocytes, and is substantially free from pyrogen as well as interferon-gamma, interleukin-2 and direct cytotoxin.
摘要:
This invention is in the field of a combination comprising a therapeutically-effective amount of a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor and an immunosuppressive drug selected from antiproliferative agents, antiinflammatory-acting compounds and inhibitors of leukocyte activation. This combination may be used, for example, to suppress the immune response associated with organ transplantation, graft versus host disease, and conditions with underlying autoimmune or inflammatory reactivities or responses.
摘要:
A class of halogenated phenylacetonitrile alkylaminoalkylphenyl compounds having immunosuppressive properties is described. Compounds of this class would be useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmune or inflammatory diseases. Compounds of particular interest are of the formula ##STR1## wherein m is a number selected from three to five, inclusive; wherein n one or two; wherein R.sup.1 is selected from methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, iso-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclopropylmethyl, cyclobutylmethyl, cyclopentylmethyl, cyclohexylmethyl, benzyl and phenethyl; wherein R.sup.2 is selected from methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, iso-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclopropylmethyl, cyclobutylmethyl, cyclopentylmethyl, cyclohexylmethyl, benzyl and phenethyl; wherein each of R.sup.3 through R.sup.7 is selected from hydrido, fluoro, chloro, bromo, azide, trifluoromethyl, difluorochloromethyl, 1,1-difluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, perfluoroethyl and 2,2,2,3-tetrafluoropropyl; with the proviso that at least one of R.sup.3 through R.sup.7 is selected from fluoro and trifluoromethyl; or a tautomer thereof or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.

摘要:
A class of substituted phenylacetonitrilehydroxyalkylaminoalkyl-ortho-substituted aryl compounds having immunosuppressive properties is described. Compounds of this class would be useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmune or inflammatory diseases. Compounds of particular interest are of the formula ##STR1## wherein each of m and n is a number independently selected from one to five, inclusive; wherein R.sup.1 is selected from hydrido, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl; wherein R.sup.6 is selected from loweralkyl; wherein each of R.sup.8, R.sup.9, R.sup.10 and R.sup.12 through R.sup.16 is independently selected from hydrido, hydroxy, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylcarbonyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylcarbonylalkenyl, alkylaminocarbonyl and alkoxyalkyl; or a tautomer thereof or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.
