The invention comprises a process wherein the DNA synthesis and, thus, the proliferation of mononuclear cells (MNZ) and of T cells as well is inhibited by the simultaneous and combined inhibition of the enzyme activity (I) of alanyl aminopeptidase and of dipeptidyl peptidase IV; (II) of dipeptidyl peptidase IV and of the angiotensin-converting enzyme; (III) of dipeptidyl peptidase IV and of prolyl oligopeptidase; and (IV) of dipeptidyl peptidase IV and of X-Pro-aminopeptidase to an extent which cannot be achieved by an application of a single one of said enzyme inhibitors, even at a higher dosage. Although the said inhibitors exercise an influence on the very same process finally, i.e. the DNA synthesis and, thus, the proliferation of immune cells, this effect is not complete and is not long lasting when a single inhibitor is applied. From the functional overlap of enzymatic activities results an additive/superadditive inhibitory effect on the DNA synthesis and proliferation by the simultaneous inhibition of more than one of the above enzymes, as our data show. Our invention shows that the simultaneous application of substances inhibiting the above enzymes or of corresponding preparations and administration forms, respectively, is well suitable for a therapy of autoimmune diseases and chronic diseases with an inflammatory genesis as well as for a treatment of rejection episodes after a transplantation.
本发明包括一种工艺,在该工艺中,通过同时和联合抑制(I) 丙氨酰氨基肽酶和二肽基肽酶 IV 的酶活性,抑制 DNA 合成,从而抑制单核细胞(MNZ)和 T 细胞的增殖;(II) 二肽基肽酶 IV 和血管紧张素转换酶; (III) 二肽基肽酶 IV 和脯氨酰寡肽酶;以及 (IV) 二肽基肽酶 IV 和 X-脯氨酰肽酶,其抑制程度是单用一种上述酶抑制剂所无法达到的,即使使用较大剂量也是如此。虽然上述抑制剂最终会对相同的过程,即 DNA 合成产生影响,从而影响免疫细胞的增殖,但在使用单一抑制剂时,这种影响并不完全,也不持久。正如我们的数据所显示的那样,由于酶活性的功能重叠,通过同时抑制上述一种以上的酶,会对 DNA 合成和增殖产生叠加/超叠加抑制作用。我们的发明表明,同时应用抑制上述酶的物质或相应的制剂和给药形式,非常适合用于治疗自身免疫性疾病和炎症性慢性疾病,以及治疗移植后的排斥反应。
