Abstract

N δ-l-Homoserinyl-d-ornithinol pseudodipeptides N-acylated with typical Escherichia coli lipid A fatty acid residues and mono-O-or bis-O-phosphorylated have been prepared and their properties investigated. The derivatives carrying two phosphate groups were found to be inducers of NO production. In addition, while they were unable to induce significantly the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) by human PBMC cells, these compounds behaved also ...
