摘要 |
There is provided a method for suppressing a pro-inflammatory immune response in a cell, comprising providing to a cell sialic acid or analogs thereof, wherein the sialic acid or analogs are presented by a substrate such that a pro-inflammatory immune response in a cell is suppressed or an anti-inflammatory immune response is increased in a cell. Further, there is provided a method of treatment of inflammatory disease in a subject in need thereof. There is also provided a drug delivery device and a biomaterial which can modulate the inflammatory response in a subject. |

1. A method of modulating an inflammatory response in a cell, the method comprising: providing sialic acid presented on a microparticle or nanoparticle to a cell such that a proinflammatory response is suppressed through reduction of TNF alpha levels or an anti-inflammatory response is increased through an increase in IL-10 levels in the cell, and wherein the sialic acid is NeuAcα2-8NeuAc. |
