title: Synthesis of some new analogs of the immunoadjuvant glycopeptide MDP (N-acetyl-muramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine).
abstract: In our continued efforts to elucidate the relationship between the structure and the immunoadjuvant, antiinfectious or mitogenic activity of N-acetyl-muramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (MDP), we report the synthesis of 11 new analogs. Five of them present some modifications in the N-acetyl-muramyl moiety.
