PREPARATIONS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF T CELL MEDIATED DISEASES

摘要

Metabolizable lipid emulsions, such as Intralipid and Lipofundin, are excellent vehicles for peptide therapy of autoimmune diseases and of other TH1 T cell mediated diseases or conditions, as it promotes a TH1 to TH2 cytokine shift. Such emulsions may be used in conjunction with an antigen recognized by inflammatory T cells associated with the pathogenesis of a T cell mediated disease or condition for the therapeutic treatment of such a condition.
