Synthesis and Innate Immunosuppressive Effect of 1,2-Cyclopentanediol Derivatives. -1,2-Cyclopentanediol derivative (VIII) and a series of structurally related compounds, e.g. (IX), are synthesized and evaluated for their immunosuppressive activity. Compared to the primary lead (VIII), several methylamide-or arylamide-containing analogues like (IX) are 20-25 times more potent. -(KIKUCHI*, H.; OKAZAKI, K.; SEKIYA, M.; URYU, Y.; UEDA, K.; KATOU, Y.; KURATA, S.; OSHIMA, Y.; Eur.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
