Everyday scientists and medical doctors work together to discover possible treatments, more likely a better one, for various medical diseases. Up until now, several medical conditions remain incurable such as AIDS and Cancer. But with continuous medical study and experimentation, some experiments have shown promising results, for an instance in autoimmune diseases such as that with liposomal clodronate.
The immune system is one of the most important system of the body specifically to one's health. In fact, some people take vitamin supplements to aid their immune system. The stronger it is, the more invincible man becomes. It's all very simple if you think of it, however this may not always be the case sometimes, there are abnormalities in your immune system which causes your cells to attach your own body, hence the term Autoimmune Disease.
The immune system has an important role in a man's health. Under normal circumstances, the immune system defends the body from foreign cells which may cause infection such as common cough and colds. In addition to that, it may also send off several defensive mechanisms in the body perhaps to prevent additional trauma.
In other words, under normal circumstances the immune system is helpful. However, for some reason the immune system may not be functioning how it's supposed to be. In fact, it may cause diseases in the body thus the term, autoimmune disease meaning, "self'' made disease. Your own immune system is fighting with your own healthy cells and without medical intervention disease will progress rather quickly.
Macrophages can be a good thing or bad thing. For an instance, in simple virus infection the macrophages will be the one to fight with the virus thus preventing further infection. But in certain autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis and so on, macrophages are fighting against your healthy cells which caused such diseases.
More so, during transplant cases transplant rejection is not uncommon as the immune system may attack the new organ transplanted to the patients. To prevent this phenomenon, medical doctors most often than not start immunosupressive treatments to suppress the immune system and prevent it from attacking the transplanted organ, or in autoimmune diseases your healthy cells.
The mechanism of action on such therapy by far remains to be the most promising form treatment. Immune system suppression is not a new patient management or treatment for certain medical diseases, there have been several oral, parenteral or intravenous drugs were already made to achieve similar results. But some patients remain unresponsive.
Additionally, transplant rejection will be prevented perhaps improving the patient's quality of life. With cancer, clodronic acid showed promising results in improving the action of anti tumor drugs by increasing its level of plasma absorption. Cancer is a strong disease to fight and it needs the patient to be very responsive to his treatment to achieve good results. Clodronic acid does not cure cancer but rather, pose as a good conjunctive therapy for anti tumor or antineoplastic drugs.
Liposomal clodronate was also discovered to have therapeutic effects in conjunction with anti tumor drugs used in Cancer. Clodronic acid is said to improve the drug absorption of antineoplastic drugs as well as demonstrated the possibility of slowing down cancer growth however, this mode of action is yet to be proved. The combination of decreasing blood vessel density and tumor size shows great promise.
