title: Fungal metabolites. Part 12. Potent immunosuppressant, 14-deoxomyriocin, (2S,3R,4R)-(E)-2-amino-3,4-dihydroxy-2-hydroxymethyleicos-6-enoic acid and structure-activity relationships of myriocin derivatives.
abstract: In order to investigate the structure-activity relationships, fourteen derivatives of myriocin ((2S,3R,4R)-(E)-2-amino-3,4-dihydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-14-oxoeicos- 6-enoic acid) were prepared and examined for immunosuppressive activity on mouse allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction in vitro. Among them, 14-deoxomyriocin ((2S,3R,4R)-(E)-2-amino-3,4-dihydroxy-2- hydroxymethyleicos-6-enoic acid) was the most potent. It also suppressed the generation of allo-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes in mice upon intraperitoneal administration, with a potency 10-fold greater than that of myriocin.
