Liposomes containing oligopeptide fragments of myelin basic protein, a pharmaceutical composition and a multiple sclerosis treatment procedure

摘要

The present invention provides compositions and methods for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Among others, the invention provides compositions of immunodominant peptides of myelin basic protein encapsulated in mannosylated liposomes. In a specific embodiment, the compositions comprise mylein basic protein (MBP) peptides MBP(46-62), MBP(124-139), and MBP(147-170).
