Abstract

Immunomodulators include both immunostimulatory and immunosuppressive agents. The introduction of this new class of drugs marked the beginning of the post-cortisone era in clinical dermatology. Topical immunotherapy with both immunostimulatory and immunosuppressive agents show potential for effective treatment of inflammatory, infectious and neoplastic skin diseases. These agents have few side effects and have clinical effects similar to corticosteroids. The purpose of this review is to introduce to our collagues potentially useful immunomodulators in clinical dermatology.

Özet

İmmünmodülatörler, immünsuprasif ve immünstimülan özelliklere sahip olan ajanlardır. Bu yeni sınıf ilaçların klinik dermatolojide kullanıma girmesi “post-kortizon” çağın başlamış olduğunu düşündürebilir. İlerleyen teknoloji ile birlikte hergün yeni bir immünmodulatör ajan geliştirilmiştir. Bu ajanlar kortikosteroidlerle benzer klinik etkilere sahip olup, yan etkileri oldukça azdır. Topikal ve sistemik immünoterapi ajanları enflamatuar, enfeksiyöz ve neoplastik deri hastalıklarında giderek artan oranda kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu derlemede dermatolojide kullanılabilecek immünmodülatörler literatür bilgileri ışığında sunulmaktadır.
