The invention discloses application of a
metal boride nano material in preparation of an immunosuppressant, and belongs to the technical field of biological
medicine. Specifically, through a series of researches, it is found that the
metal boride nano material catalyzes an organic substrate containing a-CH-OH group in cells, and meanwhile, NAD (P) < + > is converted to generate NAD (P) H, GSH rising is promoted, and
cell reductive stress is initiated. The immune cells are further induced to differentiate to an immunosuppressive
phenotype,
secretion of immunosuppressive factors is promoted,
secretion of immune activating factors is inhibited at the same time, and finally the
immunosuppressive effect is achieved. The catalytic action of the substance can provide a lasting and stable
immunosuppression effect, and the feasibility of the substance in
initiation of reduction stress and
immunosuppression is proved through in-vivo and in-vitro experiments. The invention provides a new
immunosuppression strategy, which is expected to make up the defects of the traditional immunosuppressor, and provides a new choice for related treatment of clinical
organ transplantation, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases and the like.
