C-Galactosylceramide: Synthesis and Immunology.

Richard W Franck1.   

Abstract

A synthetic C-glycoside, α-C-galactosylceramide, is an active immunostimulant in mice. It displays better activity than α-O-galactosylceramide in several disease models. Syntheses of several α-C-galactosylceramides are described. Experiments that probe its immunostimulant activity are outlined. Possible explanations for its superior activity are discussed.
