Abstract

A method for the treatment or prevention of autoimmune diseases, allergic or atopic disorders, and graft rejection is provided, comprising inducing the death by apoptosis of a subpopulation of T lymphocytes that is capable of causing such diseases, while leaving substantially unaffected the majority of other T lymphocytes Cell death is achieved by cycle(s) comprising challenging via immunization these T cells with antigenic substance at short time intervals or by immunization followed by administering interleukin-2 (IL-2) when these T cells are expressing high levels of IL-2 receptor so as cause these T cells to undergo apoptosis upon re-immunization with the antigenic peptide or protein. These methods are applicable to the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as, for example, multiple sclerosis, uveitis, arthritis, Type I insulin-dependent diabetes, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Grave's thyroiditis, autoimmune myocardis, allergic disorders such as hay fever, extrinsic asthma, or insect bite and sting allergies. food and drug allergies, as well as for the treatment or prevention of graft rejection.

Claims (24)

1. A method for treating or preventing a disease in a human or animal caused by antigen-activated T cells, comprising inducing the death by apoptosis of a subpopulation of T lymphocytes that is capable of causing said disease to an extent greater than that of other T lymphocytes.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein said apoptosis is achieved by a cycle comprising challenging via immunization said T cells with a substance selected from the group consisting of an antigen, a peptide, a protein, a polysaccharide, an organic molecule, and a nucleic acid, followed by increasing the amount of IL-2 in said human or animal when said T cells are expressing high levels of IL-2 receptor, so as to cause said T cells to undergo apoptosis upon re-immunization with said substance.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein said antigen, peptide, or protein is selected from the group consisting of one leading to an autoimmune disease, an allergic or atopic disorder, and graft rejection.
4. The method of claim 3, wherein said autoimmune disease is selected from the group consisting of multiple sclerosis, uveitis, arthritis, Type I insulin-dependent diabetes, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Grave's thyroiditis, and autoimmune myocarditis.
5. The method of claim 3, wherein said allergic disorder is selected from the group consisting of hay fever, extrinsic asthma, insect bite and sting allergies, and food or drug allergies.
6. The method of claim 2, wherein said challenging via immunization is conducted by administering said antigenic peptide or protein at a dose effective to cause said T cells to express high affinity IL-2 receptors and/or to produce and secrete IL-2.
7. The method of claim 2, wherein said challenging via immunization is conducted by administering said antigenic peptide or protein at a dose between about 10 to about 1000 µg.
8. The method of claim 2, wherein said challenging via immunization is conducted by administering said antigenic peptide or protein orally or intramuscularly.
9. The method of claim 3, wherein said antigenic peptide or protein is selected from the group consisting of myelin basic protein residue 84-102, myelin basic protein residue 143-168, human S antigen, type II collagen, thyroglobulin, Amb a V, Amb t V, an antigen inciting hay fever, an antigen derived from insect venom, an antigen derived from insect saliva, a food antigen, a drug antigen, and a donor class I major histocom-patibility complex antigen.
10. The method of claim 9, wherein said antigen derived from insect venom is antigen V of hornet venom.
11. The method of claim 9, wherein said food antigen is codfish allergen M.
12. The method of claim 2, wherein said challenging Via immunization is followed by a period of time between about 12 to about 72 hours before administering an additional high dose of IL-2.
13. The method of claim 2, wherein a high dose of IL-2 is administered intravenously, either as a continuous infusion or as frequent bolus doses.
14. The method of claim 2, wherein a high dose of IL-2 is in the range between about 300 to about 3,000 units/kg/hour continuous infusion, or from about 104 to about 106 units/kg intravenous bolus.
15. The method of claim 13, wherein said continuous infusion is conducted for a period of time between about 48 to about 72 hours.
16. The method of claim 2, wherein said cycle is repeated up to an endpoint selected from the group consisting of elimination of in vitro reactivity to said antigenic peptide or protein, amelioration of clinical symptoms, decreased allergic skin test, reduction in serum IgE, and toxicity.
17. The method of claim 9, wherein said donor class I major histocompatibility complex antigen is administered in the form of whole blood, packed cell equivalent, or a washed packed cell transfusion.
18. The method of claim 17, wherein said whole blood is administered in a dose of about 50 to about 200 ml.
19. The method of claim 18, wherein the total amount of whole blood administered is determined by the fluid tolerance of end-stage renal disease in the recipient.
20. The method of claim 19, wherein said cycle is repeated up to an endpoint selected from the group consisting of a diminished requirement for general immunosuppressive medications, graft survival, and adequate function of said graft.
21. The method of claim 2, wherein said cycle comprises challenging via immunization said T cells by repeated administration of said substance without the subsequent exogenous administration of IL-2.
22. The method of claim 21, wherein said cycle of repeated administration is performed at a short time interval.
23. The method of claim 22, wherein said time interval is in the range of from about one to about five days.
24. The method of claim 22, wherein said time interval is in the range of from about one to about three days.
