Definitions

  • the invention relates to a suppressor of disease-associated autoreactive B lymphocytes in autoimmune disorders with three different ligands incorporated into one single molecule and manifesting affinity to one activating and to two inhibiting B cell receptors.
  • autoimmune diseases develop in approximately two percent of the human population. In these pathological states, the patients' own tissues and organs are attacked by the immune system by autoantibodies or by autoreactive T lymphocytes. Serious damage or destruction of the targeted tissue results from the autoimmune attack. Depending on the number of organs targeted, autoimmune diseases are divided into two groups - systemic and organ-specific. The anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs used presently to treat them in most cases diminish or delay the injury to the targeted tissue, but do not affect the primary disease itself. Even more, such medicines have serious and even life-threatening side-effects.
