Description

Title: Immunomodulation
Background Lung disease is on the highest medical conditions that affect millions of people around the world annually and is responsible for a plethora of deaths. For example, young individuals may generally suffer from lung disease and other respiratory complications that results in the death of millions of babies younger than one year of age each year around the world.
In addition, lung diseases are associated with inflammation of the lung tissue. For example, during an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a rapid onset of progressive malfunction of the lungs occurs. This is usually associated with the malfunction of other organs due to the incapacity to uptake and limited availability of oxygen. The condition is associated with extensive lung inflammation and small blood vessel injury in all affected organs. Furthermore, ARDS is frequently advanced by trauma, sepsis (systemic infection), diffuse pneumonia, and shock. It may also be associated with surgery, and blood abnormalities. In numerous cases inflammation during lungs disease, the inflammatory response accompanies the underlying disease state and may be more dangerous than the underlying infection or trauma. Consequently, many approaches to the prevention and management of inflammation ARDS have been unsuccessful or inconclusive. In addition, many treatments are not able to improve outcome or prevented ARDS.
In addition, persistent bronchitis leads to chronic inflammation of the bronchi in the lungs. It is generally considered one of the two forms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the other being emphysema. Clinically, a persistent cough produces sputum (phlegm) and mucus.
Phlegm is associated with all these conditions and is a thick, although slippery and sticky substance produced by the throat, bronchial passages, and lung tissues. Phlegm, also called sputum, contains mucus and other substances, such as dead cells, foreign particles such as dust. These are known to induce an infection. Furthermore, the build-up of phlegm and mucus collectively, leads to inflammation of the respiratory tissues and an impaired immune system.
Asthma is another example of an inflammatory disorder that causes the airways of the lungs to swell and narrow, leading to wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. This can be a chronic condition that may be caused by environmental triggers that include although not limited to, animal hair or dander, dust, changes in weather, exercise, dietary intake, mold, and pollen.
Drugs used for the treatment of such conditions such as chronic bronchitis, COPD, and asthma include, however, not limited to, smooth muscarinic acetylcholine receptor inhibitors such as ipratropium bromide; anticholinergic bronchodilators such as tiotropium; long-acting 32-adrenergic receptor agonists such as salmeterol, formoterol, and albuterol; anti-inflammatory agents such as inhaled steroids, montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA), and roflumilast, are a selective, long-acting inhibitor of the enzyme phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4); xanthines such as theophylline; and mucolytic agents such as bromhexine and acetylcysteine. Numerous of these agents used for the treatment of chronic bronchitis, COPD, and asthma work through receptors that are present throughout the body, thereby potentially causing undesirable side effects.
Several drugs are available for administration by inhalation that can provide some relief The administration by inhalation can somewhat increase delivery to the target site and reduce side effects. However, due to an increase of inflammation and phlegm buildup there is decreased lung function which results in improper dosing and reduced patient compliance. Therefore, innovative, and more useful pharmaceuticals are required.
In relation to inflammation of mammalian lung tissues, phlegm and mucus build-up which causes impairment of oxygen take up and bioavailability. These collectively all correlate with clinical and laboratory features such as a cytokine storm syndrome. Herein, in an embodiment, the therapeutic combination demonstrates an anti-inflammatory therapy to prevent or reduce the severity of such an immunopathology.
For example, an immunomodulating medication may be used as a composition and method to treat some phlegm associate ailments. These may mediate reduction in the inflammatory load, or prevention of an increase in phlegm build-up load, and may assist the host immune response to reduce or eliminate the inflammation and phlegm from the body. The present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a combination of such agents. Herein, in an embodiment, the combination of agents consists of a combination of natural active agents or extracts that have an anti-inflammatory effect. In addition, the embodiment utilizes a combination that mediates immunomodulation of the host immune response. For example, by stimulating cytokine expression rhythm that assists with recovery from an infection without inducing host-derived pathology such as that seen during a cytokine storm.
For instance, it is well known that mammalian host organisms have evolved an array of immune responses that are regularly successful in removing the inflammation and phlegm from the body. However, during acute respiratory disease, a "cytokine storm" may result in the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF), Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1r and/or IL-8, which may mediate acute lung injury (ALI), or in its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ALI and/or ARDS may be associated with vascular hyperpermeability, multiple organ failure that can lead to death.
Corticosteroids are exemplary potent anti-inflammatory medications. Some of these may somewhat help alleviate the symptoms (for example, swelling, or shortness of breath) of inflammation. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents are also slightly effective exemplary anti-inflammatory agents however, they also cause several serious side effects.
Instead, the natural cytokine interleukin (IL-10) is a well-known immunomodulatory protein with an effective anti-inflammatory and a pro-relief factor in various model systems. This is a secreted molecule, by various cell types including, macrophages, B and T-cell lymphocytes, dendritic, mast and eosinophil cells. This immunoregulatory cytokine performs a vital role during inflammation and immune system related outcomes [1]. It has influential anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive roles on myeloid cell functions and forms a solid basis in chronic inflammatory diseases. The role of IL-10 is evident in cellular based autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), psoriasis, or its involvement in humoral-based systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In addition, modulation of the immune stimulatory activities by IL-10 has demonstrated a treatment ofhumoral autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases E2]. As described, IL-10 is produced by most of the innate and adaptive immune cells and is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine. This indicates that IL-10 secretion and its actions are extremely controlled and compartmentalized. Several efforts directed at systemic administration of IL-10 to induce the modulation of autoimmune diseases e.g., rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis (MS), type I diabetes and psoriasis, have produced varying and largely ambiguous effects. Furthermore, its well known thar IL-10 can promote humoral immune responses, thus, enhancing the class II expression on B cells and induction of immunoglobulin (Ig) production E3]. Concurrently, IL-10 plays a crucial role in regulating host immune responses to pathogens, in this manner, hindering damage to the host and as a result, maintaining normal tissue homeostasis. An abnormal regulation of IL-10 is linked with exacerbated immunopathology's and an increased risk for the development of autoimmune diseases E4]. For example, during an allergic reaction the production of11-10 by antigen-specific T lymphocytes leads to anergy mediated by the inhibition of CD2S-costimulatory molecule signaling on basophils, eosinophils and mast cells, thus, alleviating allergic reactions E5]. In addition, during asthmatic events, pulmonary diseases, chronic inflammation, and obstruction of the alveoli is particularly evident in smokers, where IL-10 has shown the capability of inhibiting allergen-induced airway inflammation. Furthermore, a non-specific responsiveness in asthmatic animal models have demonstrated beneficial outcomes 76].
However, the exact mechanism of IL-10 and its protective activity remains to be clarified. It
is known that IL-10 gene transfer to the airway abrogates cellular and physiological recall
response in vivo, and IL-10 does not prevent expansion or activation of T cell subsets []. Therefore, it does not abrogate the cellular-based immunity. In addition, a relative
deficiency in IL-10 production has been observed in alveolar macrophages of atopic
asthmatic patients. More important, the potential role of IL-10 secrted by regulatory T cells
in allergy and asthma has demonstrated benefits Es]. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms
of IL-10 remain unknown.
More important, the combination herein the embodiment presents a combination of natural
and botanical extracts that induce the upregulation of IL-10 and its anti-inflammatory
effects. In addition, the inventors have discovered for the first time that the upregulation of
IL-10 has anti-phlegm activity and can minimize mucus build-up in a mammalian subject.
Natural active and medicinal plant extracts Plant and animal extracts have been used throughout thousands of years in traditional
medicinal in response to a range of ailments. For example, a variety of natural herbal agents
have demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory effects in mammals such as humans.
Moreover, these extracts have shown compelling capability to modulate the immune
response.
In fact, it is understood that 70-80 percent of the human population in developing countries
utilize medicinal plants for their primary healthcare. Moreover, a variety of phytochemicals derived from the plants have been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects in humans. More important, phytochemicals have shown to be immunomodulatory.
For the first time, the present inventors have accomplished that a combination of naturally derived active agents in combination with natural plant extracts augment specific aspects of the immune system to mediate an effective response while minimising phlegm and mucus in association with the respiratory system.

Size - in a capsule form with the said composition of 500mg w/w.
The extracts of the present invention were sourced and prepared using the following methods. Raw material from plant an animal matter for extraction were obtained as follows: T. cordfolia, Curcuma, Channa striata; Aloe barbadensis; Moringa olefera. Separately, the same amount of each of the extracts may be individually prepared as above (i.e., without combination), and packaged into sachets and the sachets contain the same amount of an individual extract as that extract in combination, that is:
* 1000 mg Moringa extract,
* 200 mg T. Cordfolia extract,
* 1000 mg Aloe vera extract,
* 300 mg Curcuma,
* 500 mg Channa striata
Prophetic Example:
The anti-inflammatory composition were tested in a human colon fibroblast cell line Hs i. Int (ATCC CRL-7820; obtained from ATCC, Australia) cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) plus 5-10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, both sourced obtained from ATCC, Australia). The CRL7820 cell line expresses high levels of the ACE-2 receptor (Hikmet et al., 2020), which is the entry point into cells for SARS-Cov and SARC-Cov-2.
The FBS contains albumin in the serum in the range of 4.5 mg/mL. Briefly, cultured at
37°C with 5% CO2 and culture supernatants are tested using a multiplex interleukin assay
in accordance with manufacturer's instructions and compared to negative control
supernatant.
Methods:
PBMC samples were obtained from healthy subjects and cultured in six different
concentrations of extract combinations following the stimulation with lipopolysaccharide
(LPS). Supernatants from each of these conditions were pooled and tested using a Human
Multiplex Panel (Cat # EPX450-12171-901) to analyse cytokine production.
In vitro experimental protocol
• Reconstitute extracts in DMSO. Filter sterilized,
• Thaw PBMC and resuspend in culture medium,
• Plate out cells (100 pl) into 96-well plate,
• Rest overnight in 37°C/5% CO 2 incubator (approximately 16-18 hours)
• Wash PBMC, remove supernatants and re-suspend in 100 pl fresh culture medium
in the presence of 10% heat inactivated FBS,
• Add extracts / controls in 50 pl. Incubate at37C/5% CO2 for 30 mins (150pl in
each well)
• Add LPS/PBS in 10 tl to appropriate wells (final 160,pl in each well, total)
• Incubate plate at 370 C/5% CO 2 for 24 hours
• Samples are collected and stored at -80°C before analyzing the analytes.
PBMC - 2.5 x 10/well (total = 3.1 x 107 cells) per experiment (6.2 x 107 cells total per subject), *Extracts (stock concentration = 40 mg/ml in DMSO = 40 000 tg/ml), *LPS (stock I mg/ml), and final concentration of LPS used as positive control for inflammation is
ng/mL), * Control: PBMC stimulated with LPS in the presence of DMSO, with and without dexamethasone. #Culture medium RPMI medium (supplemented with glutamax) with 1x PenStrep and 2.5 pg/ml plasmocin 10% heat inactivated FBS *Each well contained 100 pl of cells + 50 pl of diluted product or control + 10 pl LPS/PBS = 160 pl volume / well. Each condition was plated in triplicate, note; final concentration of DMSO was kept at 0.5% (v/v).
