Abstract
Use of ruthenium complexes as immunosuppressive agents to prevent or significantly reduce graft rejection in organ and bone marrow transplantation is described. The ruthenium complexes can also be used as immunosuppressant drugs for T-lymphocyte mediated autoimmune diseases, such as diabetes, and may be useful in alleviating psoriasis and contact dermatitis. The ruthenium complexes can also be used therapeutically in the treatment of hyperproliferative vascular disease.
