"Immunopharmacology" , why not "pharmacoimmunology"? Professor H.
O. Schild University College London, 1962 An intact immune response
is essential for survival, as is evidenced by the various innate
immune deficiency syndromes and by the emergence of the acquired
immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) as a pandemic during the last
decade. Substances which stimulate the immune response might
contribute to the therapy of AIDS and its precursor, AIDS-related
syndrome, as well as of other clinical conditions in which immune
responses can be diminished, such as carcinoma and infections. In
other circumstances, an intact or heightened immune response may
pose clinical problems; hence there is need to suppress, or
diminish, components of the immune response. For instance, it is
necessary to impair cellular immunity in order to ensure lasting
acceptance of heterografts and it is already established that
agents effective in transplantation are therapeutically effective
in an range of autoimmune diseases. More recently, experimental
studies have indicated that aberrant manifestations of humoral
immunity, as in allergies, may also be amenable to pharmacological
intervention.
