Adjuvant activity of carbohydrate analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine on the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity to azobenzenearsonate-N-acetyl-L-tyrosine in guinea pigs.

چکیده
The adjuvant activity of 29 kinds of carbohydrate analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine on the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity to azobenzenearsonate-N-acetyl-L-tyrosine was examined in guinea pigs. It was found that the D-manno- and D-galacto-type muramyldipeptides were as active as the D-gluco-type muramyldipeptide (MDP). The structural requirement of the carbohydrate moiety of analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine is discussed.

We studied the time course of humoral and cellular immunity of guinea pigs injected with the synthetic adjuvant N-acetylmuramyl L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (MDP Pasteur, 10 microgram) in Freund incomplete adjuvant; the kinetics were compared with those obtained with Freund complete adjuvant (50 microgram of whole Mycobacterium butyricum). The antibody response to ovalbumin was faster and higher wit...

The adjuvant and tumor-suppressive activities of the quinonyl [2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-(9'-carboxynonyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (QS-10)] derivatives of N-acetyl muramyl dipeptides were examined. N-Acetyl muramyl-L-valyl-D-isoglutamine (MurNac-L-Val-D-isoGln), QS-10-MurNAc-L-Val-D-isoGln, and their methyl esters were shown to have potent adjuvant activity on the induction of delayed-type hypersensiti...

N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (MDP), an apparently nonimmunogenic bacterial peptidoglycan-derived small peptide, was found to induce a polyarthritis the rat similar to that induced by Freund's complete adjuvant when injected in the form of an oil emulsion. An oil emulsion of its isomer, N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-L-isoglutamine, which unlike MDP has no immunostimulatory activity, failed...

Adjuvant and antitumor activities of synthetic 6-O-"mycoloyl"-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine were examined. All the synthetic 6-O-corynomycoloyl-, 6-O-mocardomycoloyl-, and 6-O-mycoloyl-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine were active as adjuvants for cell-mediated immune responses. However, 6-O-mycoloyl-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine was less active as an adjuvant on circu...
