Use of lipid conjugates in the treatment of disease
The invention relates to methods of use for compounds in treating, reducing the incidence, reducing the severity or pathogenesis of an intestinal disease or condition in a subject, including, inter alia, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or a combination thereof.
1. A method for the therapeutic treatment of an intestinal disease or disorder in a subject suffering from said intestinal disease or disorder, comprising administering to the subject suffering from said intestinal disease or disorder a composition comprising a compound represented by the structure of the formula:
wherein
R 1 and R 2 each is palmitoyl or myristoyl;
Y is nothing;
X is a hyaluronic acid; and
n is a number from 1 to 1000,
wherein said intestinal disease or disorder is an inflammatory bowel disease selected from the group consisting of Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis.
2. A method for the therapeutic treatment of an intestinal disease or disorder in a subject suffering from said intestinal disease or disorder, comprising administering to the subject suffering from said intestinal disease or disorder a composition comprising a compound represented by the structure of the formula:
wherein
R 1 and R 2 each is palmitoyl or myristoyl;
Y is nothing;
X is carboxymethylcellulose; and
n is a number from 1 to 1000,
wherein said intestinal disease or disorder is an inflammatory bowel disease selected from the group consisting of Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis.
3. The method of claim 1 or 2 , wherein said compound comprises dipalmitoyl phosphatidylethanolamine or dimyristoyl phosphatidylethanolamine.
4. The method of claim 1 or 2 , wherein said inflammatory bowel disease is Crohn's Disease.
5. The method of claim 1 or 2 , wherein said inflammatory bowel disease is ulcerative colitis.
6. The method of claim 1 or 2 , wherein said compound is administered at a dose of 5 mg/ml.
7. The method of claim 1 or 2 , wherein said compound is administered at a dose of 20 mg/ml.
