Drugs Longidaza:
Longidaza has hyaluronidase (enzymatic) activity of prolonged action, chelating, antioxidant, immunomodulatory and moderately pronounced anti-inflammatory effect.
The prolonged action is achieved by covalent binding of the enzyme to a physiologically active polymer carrier (azoximer). Longidaza® exhibits antifibrouse properties, weakens the course of the acute phase of inflammation, regulates (increases or decreases, depending on the initial level) the synthesis of inflammatory mediators (interleukin-1 and TNFα), increases the humoral immune response and the body's resistance to infection.
The pronounced antifibrose properties of the drug Longidase® are provided by the conjugation of hyaluronidase with the carrier, which significantly increases the resistance of the enzyme to denaturing effects and the action of inhibitors: the enzymatic activity of the drug Longidaza® persists when heated to 37 ° C for twenty days, while the native hyaluronidase under the same conditions loses its activity during the day.
