Abstract

Described herein are methods for treating an autoimmune or inflammatory disease in a patient, comprising administering a composition comprising: a) a plurality of antigen-major histocompatibility class II complexes (antigen-MHCIIs), each antigen-MHCII of the plurality comprising a ubiquitous autoantigen associated with a binding groove of an MHC class II molecule, wherein the ubiquitous autoantigen is chosen from PDC-E2 353-367 , PDC-E2 72-86 , and PDC-E2 422-436 for DRB3*0202; PDC-E2 353-367 , PDC-E2 80-94 , and PDC-E2 535-549 for DRB5*0101; PDC-E2 629-648 , PDC-E2 122-135 , and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB4*0101; and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB1*0801; and b) a nanoparticle core possessing a diameter of between 1 and about 100 nanometers; wherein the antigen-MHCs are coupled to the nanoparticle core or a biocompatible layer surrounding the nanoparticle core; and wherein the autoimmune or inflammatory disease is chosen from multiple sclerosis and psoriasis.

Claims (24)

1. A method for treating an autoimmune or inflammatory disease in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient a composition comprising:

a) a plurality of antigen-major histocompatibility class II complexes (antigen-MHCIIs), each antigen-MHCII of the plurality comprising a ubiquitous autoantigen associated with a binding groove of an MHC class II molecule, wherein the ubiquitous autoantigen is chosen from PDC-E2 353-367 , PDC-E2 72-86 , and PDC-E2 422-436 for DRB3*0202; PDC-E2 353-367 , PDC-E2 80-94 , and PDC-E2 535-549 for DRB5*0101; PDC-E2 629-648 , PDC-E2 122-135 , and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB4*0101; and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB1*0801; and

b) a nanoparticle core possessing a diameter of between 1 and about 100 nanometers;

wherein the antigen-MHCs are coupled to the nanoparticle core or a biocompatible layer surrounding the nanoparticle core; and

wherein the autoimmune or inflammatory disease is chosen from multiple sclerosis and psoriasis.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticle core is a metal or metal oxide.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the metal is iron.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the metal oxide is iron oxide.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the diameter is between about 5 nanometers and about 50 nanometers.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the diameter is between about 5 nanometers and about 25 nanometers.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of antigen-MHCs is coupled to the nanoparticle core at an antigen-MHC to nanoparticle core ratio of at least 10:1.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of antigen-MHCs is coupled to the nanoparticle core at an antigen-MHC to nanoparticle core ratio of no more than about 150:1.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of antigen-MHCs is coupled to the nanoparticle core at a density from about 0.4 to about 13 antigen-MHCs per 100 nm 2 of nanoparticle core surface area.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antigen-MHCs are covalently coupled to the nanoparticle core.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antigen-MHCs are coupled to the nanoparticle core by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker having a mass of less than about 5 kilodaltons.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticle core further comprises a biocompatible coating.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ubiquitous autoantigen is selected from the group consisting of: PDC-E2 422-436 and PDC-E2 80-94 .

14. The method of claim 1 further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable stabilizer, excipient, diluent, or combination thereof.

15. The method of claim 1 , formulated for intravenous administration.

16. A method of treating an autoimmune or inflammatory disease in an individual comprising administering to an individual a composition comprising:

a) a plurality of antigen-major histocompatibility class II complexes (antigen-MHCIIs), each antigen-MHCII of the plurality comprising a ubiquitous autoantigen associated with a binding groove of an MHC class II molecule, wherein the ubiquitous autoantigen is chosen from PDC-E2353-367, PDC-E2 72-86 , and PDC-E2 422-436 for DRB3*0202; PDC-E2 353-367 , PDC-E2 80-94 , and PDC-E2 535-549 for DRB5*0101; PDC-E2 629-648 , PDC-E2122-135, and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB4*0101; and PDC-E2 249-263 for DRB1*0801; and

b) a nanoparticle core possessing a diameter of between 1 and about 100 nanometers;

wherein the antigen-MHCs are coupled to the nanoparticle core or a biocompatible layer surrounding the nanoparticle core; and

wherein the autoimmune or inflammatory disease is chosen from multiple sclerosis and psoriasis.
