Therapeutic uses of bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein dimer products

摘要

Improved therapeutic compositions, methods and uses of bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) products involve use of dimeric forms of BPI protein product monomers characterized by enhanced in vivo biological activity. Preferred formulations include 50 percent or more by weight dimeric product and preferred therapeutic uses include endotoxin neutralization and heparin neutralization.
