USE OF ALICYCLIC DIAMINES AS IMMUNOMODULATORS

摘要

The invention discloses the use of a compound of general structural formula (I) R-NH-K-Q-K-NH-R, wherein Q is a divalent radical of formulae (II) to (V), K is a methylene group, or, when Q is a group of formula (II), K is a binding valency. R is a radical selected from the group comprising benzyl, benzyl substituted with halogen or trihalomethyl groups, substituted trihalomethyl benzyl, indanyl, alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenylalkyl, bicycloalkyl, bicycloalkenylalkyl, bicycloalkylalkyl; and the organic or mineral acid addition salts thereof. The preparation of a medicament for correcting the expression of cytokine genes and/or a receptor thereof for treating a dysfunction related to an exogenous or endogenous disease state is also described.
