Graft vs host disease

The "stealth" concept may offer two other opportunities for liposome application (1) Conventional immunoliposomes (see Sec. VI.C) have been shown to be removed rapidly firom the circulation by the MPS (Peeters et al., 1987). The combination of the stealth approach for longer circulation with the attachment of antibodies or antibody fragments may provide a means of delivery of drugs to their sites of action with a high degree of specificity. This could be useful for treating leukemia, graft-vs.-host diseases, and HIV disease. [Pg.289]

Methotrexate is a folic acid analog. It inhibits folic acid synthetic pathways and DNA synthesis (Bannwarth et al., 1994). Methotrexate is widely used in the treatment of breast and other cancers. Methotrexate has recently gained favor for, and is approved for, the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adults who have severe active classical rheumatoid arthritis (O Dell, 2004). It is also used to treat psoriasis and graft vs host disease. [Pg.559]

A murine model of bone marrow transplant (BMT)-induced graft-vs-host disease (GvHD) examined the effects of ATLa in inflammation-associated multifactorial disease, and in particular eye inflammation was monitored (Devchand et al. 2005). A single prophylactic dose of ATLa caused the resolution of eye inflammation post-BMT. Ocular inflammation and damage to the cornea may perhaps benefit from therapeutic uses of LXs. [Pg.65]
