The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a lysozyme dimer, preferably of high purity, i.e. with about 10 wt.% or less of unintended by-products, and new applications thereof. Such applications include topical, oral and parenteral administration of said compositions for non-specific immunostimulation as a measure of prevention and/or therapeutic treatment of human and animal diseases comprising cancer, hair growth disorders, fish diseases and bee diseases. The non-specific stimulation of the immune system is induced by a single or repeated application of the lysozyme dimer composition, preferably at concentrations of 5 to 500 mu g/kg body weight. <IMAGE> |
