Abstract
The invention relates to the field of medicaments for combating an infection of a host cell by HI viruses and/or for inhibiting binding of an Env protein to a CD4 protein. For these purposes, the invention provides medicaments which comprise oxidized proteins, oxidized peptides and/or peptidomimetics of such oxidized proteins and/or oxidized peptides, as well as preparation processes for such medicaments and therapeutic and non-therapeutic possible uses of these medicaments.

A medicament for combating an infection of a host cell by HI viruses and/or for inhibiting binding of an Env protein to a CD4 protein, said medicament prepared by the steps:
- a) providing a mixture comprising human and/or animal blood plasma, and
- b) oxidating the proteins and/or peptides of the blood p plasma which are contained in the mixture with HOCl.
A process for the preparation of a medicament for combating an infection of a host cell by HI viruses and/or for inhibiting binding of an Env protein to a CD4 protein, said process comprising:
- a) providing a mixture comprising human and/or animal blood plasma and
- b) oxidizing the proteins and/or peptides of the blood plasma which are contained in the mixture with HOCl.
A method for non-therapeutic combating of an infection of a host cell by HI viruses, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a medicament prepared by the steps:
- a) providing a mixture comprising human and/or animal blood plasma, and
- b) oxidating the proteins and/or peptides of the blood p plasma which are contained in the mixture with HOCl.
A method for for non-therapeutic inhibition of binding of an Env protein to a CD4 protein, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a medicament prepared by the steps:
- a) providing a mixture comprising human and/or animal blood plasma, and
- b) oxidating the proteins and/or peptides of the blood p plasma which are contained in the mixture with HOCl.
A method for non-therapeutic combating of an infection of a host cell by HI viruses, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a medicament prepared by the steps:
- a) providing a mixture comprising human and/or animal blood plasma, and
- b) oxidating the proteins and/or peptides of the blood p plasma which are contained in the mixture with HOCl.
