“…However, the precise mechanism by which bestatin modulates cytokine production and secretion remains unclear. In addition, bestatin has been reported to promote cytotoxic T lymphocyte activation [26], antibody production [27], and humoral immune responses [28]. Considering the biological activities and immunomodulatory properties of bestatin, it may be a suitable immunologic adjuvant for targeting immune cellmediated response; furthermore, owing to its antiviral effects [23] and immune restoration and hematopoietic stimulation properties [29], it is a promising adjuvant candidate for the development of vaccines.…”

“…So wurde nachgewiesen, daß Lymphozyten, die ohne Vorsensibi lisierung Tumorzellen erkennen können, sogenannte natürli che Killerzellen (NK-Zellen), von besonderer Bedeutung bei der Eliminierung von Tumorzellen sind [18,19]. Inzwischen sind mehrere Substanzen beschrieben worden, mit denen es möglich ist, die NK-Zellaktivität zu steigern, so etwa BCG [20], C. parvum [21], Azimexon [22]. Ein Produkt, das ein starker Stimulator der NK-Zellaktivität ist, ist die Streptococcus-pyogenes-Präparation OK-432 (Picibanil®).…”
