摘要:
The present invention provides diastereomeric peptides derived from the T Cell Receptor alpha Transmembrane Domain, and lipophilic conjugates thereof, which peptides and conjugates are effective in preventing or treating T cell mediated inflammatory diseases. The invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising these diastereomeric peptides and conjugates, and uses thereof for therapy of inflammatory diseases, autoimmunity and graft rejection.
摘要:
The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions and methods for prevention or treatment of autoimmune diseases and other T cell mediated inflammatory diseases and conditions, which comprise as an active ingredient an effective quantity of a peptide derived from HIV gp41 fusion peptide domain or fragments, analogs, homologs and derivatives thereof. The invention further provides novel peptides derived from HIV gp41 fusion peptide domain, useful in the treatment of T cell mediated pathologies.
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.
摘要:
A method for the preparation of a T cell vaccine for the treatment of immunodeficient HIV-infected patients is described herein, based on the enrichment of autologous CD4-reactive CD8 T cells. Also described is a protocol for the implementation of T cell vaccination in immunodeficient HIV-infected, as well as a method of treatment, based on the T cell vaccine developed herein. Finally, kits for preparing the T cell vaccine as well as for implementing the protocol are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention provides improved vaccine compositions having enhanced immunogenicity and methods of using same. The compositions and methods include immunogenic conjugates containing peptide carriers derived from heat shock protein 60 (HSP60). The known synthetic peptide carrier, p458, provides significantly improved immunogenicity when provided as a multimeric conjugate comprising a plurality of peptide carrier units conjugated to each antigen. Cell vaccine compositions comprising antigen presenting cells loaded with multimeric p458 conjugates are also provided.
