Abstract

Heparanase activity in a patient may be inhibited by administering an effective heparanase-inhibiting amount of heparin or an effective chemically modified derivative of heparin which inhibits heparanase activity. Such derivatives are preferably N-desulfated, N-acetylated heparin or O-desulfated, N-acetylated heparin. By means of this invention, allograft rejection may be prevented or delayed and autoimmune diseases such as arthritis may be alleviated and treated.
