PEPTIDE SUBSTANCE REVEALING AN IMMUNOGEROPROTECTIVE EFFECT, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION ON ITS BASE AND THE METHOD OF ITS APPLICATION

摘要

The invention is related to the medicinal means of prevention and correction of age-related disorders of cellular and humoral immunity and may be used as a medication revealing an immunogeroprotective effect. There is proposed a peptide glutamyl-aspartyl-proline with general formula H-Glu-Asp-Pro-OH sequence 1 [SEQ ID NO:1], revealing an immunogeroprotective effect. There is proposed a pharmaceutical composition revealing an immunogeroprotective effect containing an effective amount of peptide glutamyl-aspartyl-proline with general formula H-Glu-Asp-Pro-QH sequence 1 [SEQ ID NO:1] as its active base. In this case such pharmaceutical composition exists in the form suitable for parenteral administration. There is proposed a method of prevention and/or correction of age-related disorders of cellular and humoral immunity by stimulating the processes of lymphocytes proliferation and differentiation, such method consisting in the administration to a patient of a pharmaceutical composition containing an effective amount of peptide glutamyl-aspartyl-proline with general formula: H-Glu-Asp-Pro-OH sequence 1 [SEQ ID NO:1] in the dose of 0.01-100 mug/kg of body weight as an active base at least once a day during a period necessary for attaining a therapeutic effect. In this case the pharmaceutical composition is administered parenterally.
