ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the use of β-glycolipids as immunomodulators. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of β-glycolipids, preferably, β-lactosyl-ceramide, β-glucosylceramide, β-galactosyl-ceramide, ceramid and β-lactosyl-ceramide, as well as any mixture or combination thereof for the treatment of immune related disorders. The present invention further relates to a process for the modulation of the Th1/Th2 cell balance toward anti-inflammatory cytokine producing cells, in a subject suffering from an immune related disorder. Therapeutic compositions and method for the preparation of these compositions are also provided.
