POTENTIALIZATION OF THE IMMUNITY RESPONSE THROUGH DISTRIBUTION OF COMPOUNDS THAT CONNECT TO A CITOPLASMATIC DIPEPTIDASE

摘要

A method for stimulating proliferation of T-cells containing cytoplasmic post-prolyl dipeptidase activity; the method, in one aspect, involves contacting the T-cells with an organic compound at a concentration below 10-8M, wherein the compound is characterized in that: (a) it is capable of crossing the membrane of T-cells to enter the cytoplasm, (b) it binds to the dipeptidase activity at a concentration of below 10-8M, and thus (c) stimulates proliferation of the T-cells at that concentration.
