Description

The modulation of immunne response
The present invention relates to treatment of diseases relevant in the human body with unsuitable immunne response.More particularly, the present invention relates to wherein unsuitable immunne response and the relevant treatment of diseases of unsuitable immunocyte metabolic activity, unsuitable immunocyte metabolic activity is mediated again, perhaps be considered at least with the tyrosine kinase cascade (wherein, protein tyrosine kinase (claiming that hereinafter it is " PTK ") plays an important role) relevant, perhaps with to depend on the kinases (claiming that hereinafter it is " CDK ") of cyclin relevant in the immunocyte.Therefore, the invention provides multiple treatment of diseases relevant and the medicament that is used for this treatment with unsuitable immunne response in the animal body (this term of this paper is intended to comprise human body).
People know, and immunocyte plays an important role in the immune system of animal body.Identified multiple such cell.In these cells, people generally acknowledge T lymphocyte (being also referred to as the T cell) and the important function of bone-marrow-derived lymphocyte (being also referred to as the B cell) in the immunne response that animal body infects external source.In addition, other cell that can produce amboceptor,immune also has immunologic function.This class cell to extraneous stimulus (for example viral infection of animal body or bacterial infection) or to endogenous immunologic stimulant (for example carcinogenecity conversion) normal or suitable reply the activation that can cause described cellular metabolism approach; cause producing amboceptor,immune (comprising cytokine, lymphokine, chemotactic factor, somatomedin and cytotoxic cell), and also cause the propagation of this para-immunity cell usually.Amboceptor,immune is fulfiled again or additional inhibit feature, the toxin that promptly suppresses infectious agent or discharged by it, a part that infects antagonistic process or rehabilitation course as body's natural.These approach relate to complicated biochemical system and signaling system (hereinafter will further relate to them).
Also know (not understanding fully its reason at present fully), immune replying is unusual sometimes and causes that the immunocyte that is considered to unsuitable product is expressed and secretion.Though this unusually may be relevant with the abnormality proliferation of this class cell, situation is not necessarily like this.This immunologic cellular activity unusually may be only by the secretion performance of the immunocyte product of undue amounts, not necessarily the increase with the proliferation activity of this class cell is relevant.
Unsuitable immunne response and the multiple disease association that influences human body and animal body.The present invention relates to this class treatment of diseases (hereinafter will illustrate).In described disease, the performance of unsuitable immunne response (comprise exist cytotoxic cell and/or undue amounts, specific infection or the required immunocyte product of disease of antagonism), cause anything may be considered to the attack of immune system to self health certain organs, perhaps even to the nonspecific immunity of whole health attack, rather than should attack by directed outwards suitably or endogenous antigen or medium or metabolite (for example consequent toxin).The target organ of this inappropriate attack has multiple and can find out from the disease of hereinafter enumerating and comprises skin, muscle, skeletal structure, joint, blood, brain and nervous system, the internal comprises intestinal, kidney, lung, liver, and even sensory organ (comprising eyes).
In some diseases that the present invention relates to or syndrome, identified the elementary or initial pathogen or the stimulus object of immunne response.But, this class disease or syndromic one are characterised in that, after even described pathogen or stimulus object (for example viral infection or infected by microbes or antigenic other form) have been eliminated by the self-defense mechanism of health (being immune system), after perhaps eliminating by means of medicine or by the two combination, immunne response may exist.In other cases, do not know or do not know at least as yet the pathogen that is identified.All these diseases all are considered to immune-mediated disease.
In order to be expressly understood character of the present invention and impact effect, be necessary to explain simply present understanding to the active character of immunne response in the body.Immunocyte (especially T lymphocyte) depends on signal transduction by TXi Baoshouti (it is that the T lymphocyte is exclusive and only be present in the T lymphocytic cell surface) with regard to their biological function.Described TXi Baoshouti is one group of complicated surface molecular, and it comprises CD 4Or CD 8Surface molecular.CD 4, CD 8Other surface molecular can send a signal to the interior environment (promptly being sent to the Cytoplasm of cell) of cell from the outer surface of this cell membrane with some.These signals are to send by the enzymatic pathway that is called as the tyrosine kinase cascade.Activatory tyrosine kinase makes some protein phosphorylation, causes the generation of new signal intermediate.In this cascade, the enzyme that is called as protein tyrosine kinase [PTK] plays an important role.This enzyme be a kind of be the protein of feature with the free sulfhydryl groups.The tyrosine kinase cascade ends at the expression of specific gene in the T cell at last.These genes encode respectively various amboceptor,immunes (comprising cytokine) and the required structural protein of cell proliferation.The disease of the immunne response mediation that the present invention relates to as previously mentioned, is relevant by the nothing control expression and the uncontrolled cytotoxic cell activity of immunocyte with amboceptor,immune.
Dimethyl formamide or DMF at room temperature are a kind of volatile nonionic liquid, and people know its application as industrial solvent.It especially is used to comprise the production process of pharmaceutical preparation in the production process for the various products of human consumption.Its toxicity was fully studied.Known it under high a lot of content doubly, be nontoxic than content involved in the present invention.This toxicity that DMF has under the high concentration value in human body is because it makes hepatocyte glutathion inside exhaustion in the liver, causes hepatic necrosis.
Cryopreservation Technologies CC claims that dimethyl formamide and allied compound can be used to the treatment of viral infection and/or infected by microbes in the PCT application PCT/US96/19697 that announced with WO97/22248 on June 26th, 1997.This announcement listed examples shows, can percutaneous use DMF to the patient and make DMF concentration in the blood reach the desired value of 100ppm, but according to reports, the actual value that reaches is different from this desired value in the HIV positive patient.It has further been reported, and after this treatment of using DMF was less than three weeks, the virus that the patient carries dropped to 500/ml from 120000/ml.It has also been reported, and makes DMF content in the blood reach the improvement of acne and rubella symptom among the patient of 50~100ppm with DMF treatment.The disclosure relates to the application of DMF as antiviral agent and antimicrobial, and, and keep silent in the application facet that production is used for the treatment of the medicament of this class disease at application or this compounds aspect the relevant disease of treatment immunocyte for this compounds for the immune response regulation property retention silence of the chemical compound that the present invention relates to.

Embodiment 1
By use described well in the immune Research document and known density gradient separation from healthy volunteer's separation of whole blood human peripheral lymphocyte.Briefly, by this method, with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or cell culture medium (for example RPMI1640) dilution in 1: 2 periphery whole blood.Then, and density gradient (for example Histopaque 1077[Sigma Cat#1077]) just layering below the peripheral blood after the dilution, must carefully make it to form tangible interface.Centrifugal this density gradient 20~25 minutes under 600g then.See easily after centrifugal that one deck contains most of lymphocytic limpid dark yellow top layer.Again this layer is separated and further handles, be about to this dark yellow top layer and place another test tube, with PBS or cell culture medium with cell washing 3 times.Behind each washing step all under 400g with cell centrifugation 9 minutes.After the washing, collect lymphocyte for the third time from granular precipitation.Count this cell and be diluted to required cell concentration.
Use complete cell culture medium and prepare all DMF concentration as diluent.Prepared following concentration: 1%, 0.1%, 0.05%, 0.01% and 0.001%.
Use complete cell culture medium isolating lymphocyte is diluted to desired concentration.
The complete cell culture medium of using in above-mentioned steps contains RPMI1640 (containing HEPES) 20~25mM, L-glutaminate 1mM, 3-mercaptoethanol 2X10 -5MM and 10% heat-inactivated hyclone.
The lymphocyte of preparation is placed 96 porocyte culture plates with the concentration of 150,000 cells in every hole.Adding concentration toward each test hole is the PHA[phytohemagglutinin of 1~10 μ g/200 μ l].Simultaneously, toward the DMF of each test hole interpolation predetermined concentration, under 37 ℃, at 5%CO 2, 95%O 2In the atmosphere described culture hole is incubated 1~4 day.
With 10% volume: volume adds the oxidation-reduction indicator of selling with trade mark " AlamarBlue " toward each culture hole.Culture is incubated 18 hours with AlamarBlue, is the absorbance that reference is measured the 570nm place then with 630nm.
The result can be summarized as follows:
Culture (wherein, the periphery lymphocyte that derives from the healthy volunteer be exposed to PHA and concentration be that the DMF of % reaches 24 hours) reduced be in that AlamarBlue that culture reduces in the normal PHA growth hole measures 102%.But, added that culture that concentration has only 0.05% DMF only reduced that the AlamarBlue that lymphocytic culture reduces that contains PHA and stimulate measures 52%.This has shown the remarkable inhibition of metabolic activity in the culture hole, and the level of cell proliferation is closely related in it and this particular bore.
When the indicated metabolic activity of the lymphocyte that does not more stimulate and the lymphocyte that does not the stimulate reduction AlamarBlue that is exposed to low concentration DMF, observe the reductive AlamarBlue of the lymphocyte that is exposed to 0.05%DMF concentration and reduced 40%.[see Fig. 1 and 2, this two width of cloth figure has represented the representative result of some repeated experiments].
Embodiment 2
In order to illustrate DMF, carried out the experiment of another series at the mechanism of action that causes supposition aspect the inhibition of lymphocyte metabolic activity.In these experiments, the method for describing in the Application Example 1 has been separated healthy volunteer's lymphocyte.After having separated lymphocyte, the DMF that this lymphocyte is exposed to variable concentrations reaches the temperature retention time of different length.The DMF concentration of using is 0.1%, 0.01% and 0.001%, and temperature retention time is: 5,15,30,75,120 and 180 minutes.Use commercially available tyrosine kinase assay kit (can derive from Boehringer Mannheim[classification number is 1534505]) and measured tyrosine kinase activity.The result is as shown in Fig. 3 and 4.After being exposed to concentration and being 0.01% DMF3 hour, the lymphocytic tyrosine kinase activity that is put to the test has been suppressed 71%.Be to be noted that in the figure the absorbance reading is low more, the degree that tyrosine kinase activity suppresses is just high more.It is identical that the general shape of this figure keeps, and this developing time with chromogenic reaction has nothing to do.This result has supported the hypothesis as basis of the present invention, and promptly lymphocyte contacts with it and reaches certain hour, certain density DMF, plays the retardance tyrosine kinase activity.This probability is arranged, and the reduction of observed tyrosine kinase activity may be owing to stimulate the cause of some tyrosine phosphatase in the lymphocyte that is put to the test.The figure that provides is the representative instance of a lot of figure of acquisition.
