Pharmacodynamics

The immune system of patients treated with rhGAD65 demonstrate an increase in the secretion of several immunomodulatory substances, dominated by regulatory cytokines, including IL5, IL13, IL10, IL17, IFN-a and TNF-a. Additionally, the activity of T-cells in response to GAD65 is increased with rhGAD65 therapy and subjects receiving rhGAD65 show an up regulation of cytokines in response to GAD65.
