Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9951213A2] This invention provides for the use of non-toxic polyamines in the palliative treatment of chronic diseases and disorders of epithelial tissue. The effectiveness of treatment is evidenced by alleviation of symptoms and disorders manifesting in epithelial tissue such as skin, including pruritus, erythema, pain, parastesia and general discomfort, due to the topical administration of certain polyamines. Such symptoms arise from and/or are associated with chronic conditions such as: (i) skin diseases such as inflammatory dermatoses which include atopic and contact eczema, including xerosis such as dry skin and Winter itch; (ii) infection of epithelial tissue (eg. nasal, vulvar or anal passages) with trichomonas or fungi, anal fissures, fistula discharge, wound effluent, or surgical wound drainage; (iii) "secondary disease" in which epithelial tissue exhibits manifestations of the primary underlying disease such as AIDS, chicken pox and metabolic disorders (i.e., diabetes, hepatic and kidney dysfunction and hematopoesis); and (iv) disorders arising out of direct insult to the epithelial tissue following natural (local tumors, hemorrhoids) or surgical intervention and accompanying scar formation or radiation therapy.
