titleOfInvention | Compositions and their use for promoting immunopotentiation |
abstract | This invention discloses immunopotentiating agents which stimulate an immune response. These agents are categorised into single agents that act directly, adjuvants added concurrently with the agents, or heteroconjugates. Heteroconjugate agents elicit or enhance a cellular or humoral immune response which may be specific for an epitope contained within an amino acid sequence. Enhanced hematopoieses by bone marrow stem cell recruitment was also a result of administering soime of these agents. Examples of immunopotentiating agents include monoclonal antibodies and proteins derived from microorganisms (e.g., enterotoxins) which activate T cells. One method of treatment disclosed uses only the immunopotentiating agent to stimulate the immune system. Another uses adjuvants in combination with the agent. A third method employs heteroconjugates. Heteroconjugates comprise: (a) an immunopotentiating protein which is characterised as having an ability to stimulate T cells; and (b) a second protein having an amino acid sequence which includes an epitope against which a cellular or humoral response is desired. This invention also relates to a method of preparing the heteroconjugate, and to a method of stimulating the immune system in vivo in a novel way. One route of stimulation is to activate T cells, in some instances, specific subsets of T cells, by administering heteroconjugates containing an immunopotentiating protein and a second protein, to mammals. For this method of treatment, the second protein in the heteroconjugate is derived from abnormal or diseased tissue, or from an infectious agent, alternatively, the second protein is produced synthetically by standard methods of molecular biology. Sources of the second protein include tumors, viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoal or metozoal parasites. Monoclonal antibodies or T cells prepared from mammals whose immune systems have responded to administration of the heteroconjugate may be produced and administered to induce passive immunity. A method of preparing a hybridoma which secretes said monoclonal antibodies and use of these monoclonal antibodies and T cells, are also disclosed. This invention is also directed to a vaccine comprising the heteroconjugate. |
