Secretion of macrophage cytotoxic factors induced by new desmuramyl acylpseudopeptide analogs of muramyl dipeptide.

Abstract:

:Sixteen desmuramyl analogs of muramyl dipeptide (MDP) were tested for their abilities to stimulate cytotoxic factor secretion by mouse peritoneal macrophages. Among them, the pseudohexapeptide Boc-Gly psi [CH2O]-D-Ala-Ala-D-Glu[Lys(H-Gly)NHEt]-NH2 appeared to be four times more effective than MDP. From this study, the D configuration of the pseudo-alanyl (or lactyl) residue appears to be essential for activity.

  • TNF-alpha induction of A1 expression in human cancer cells.

    abstract::A1, a member of the Bcl-2 gene family, was originally identified as a hemopoietic-specific early response gene. Later it was found that A1 was overexpressed in human stomach cancer tissues and was induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in human vascular endothelial cells. However, its expression in human c...
