  • Inflammation is a biological response of tissue to harmful stimuli, such as tissue damage, external irritants, or pathogens, characterized by complex pathological events produced by the organic interaction between various inflammatory mediators within vessels and body fluids and various immune cells, including enzyme activation, the release of inflammatory mediators, cellular infiltration and fluid exudation, circulatory disturbance, tissue degradation, hypertrophy, etc.
  • the process of inflammation is initiated by cells already present in all types of tissue, mainly resident macrophages. At the onset of an infection, macrophages gather at the site of the injury and attack the invaders. Then, plasma accumulates because of the increased blood flow to the injured site, causing increased heat, redness, swelling, pain, etc.
  • pathological phenomena e.g., hypersensitive allergy, chronic inflammatory diseases

Therefore, there has been a widespread need for novel drugs that have excellent anti-inflammatory effects without causing adverse effects after long-term use, which is the reason why material development following the validation of the effects of natural resources has been actively studied.

Abstract

Cette invention concerne l'utilisation d'une composition pharmaceutique pour prévenir ou traiter les maladies inflammatoires, ladite composition comprenant un phytostérol ou un de ses sels pharmaceutiquement acceptables comme principe actif. L'activité thérapeutique du phytostérol dans les maladies inflammatoires lui permet d'être utilisé dans une composition quasi-pharmacologique, une composition alimentaire bénéfique pour l'organisme et une composition cosmétique, chacune d'elles servant à prévenir ou à réduire l'inflammation. L'invention concerne également une méthode permettant de traiter une maladie inflammatoire chez un sujet en ayant besoin, en lui administrant la composition pharmaceutique. Le phytostérol étant un composé naturel, il peut être utilisé comme agent thérapeutique relativement sans risque d'infections fongiques ou d'autres effets secondaires par rapport aux médicaments de synthèse.
