Abstract
Physically and chemically latentiated autobiotics are described. The latentiated autobiotics are useful for the treatment or prevention of any disease or condition, which results from the presence of nonself cells in a vertebrate host. Latentiated autobiotics are furthermore useful in suppressing immune rejection processes, as radiosensitizers and as anticoagulants.
Claims3
A method of inhibiting tumor cell growth in a vertebrate host comprising administering to the vertebrate an effective amount of a chemically latentiated alpha-ketoaldehyde, wherein the tumor cell is selected from the group of tumors consisting of:
- melanomas, carcinomas and leukemias, and the carcinomas are from tissues selected from the group consisting of:
- lung, colon, kidney, ovary, brain, prostrate, and the chemically latentiated alpha-ketoaldehyde is selected from the group consisting of N-(1-hydroxyacetonyl) maleimide and acetylated N-(1-hydroxyacetonyl) maleimide.
