It was found that LPS contained in the outer wall of ivalis cell has mitogenic activity and at the same time has very weak lethal toxicity and pyrogenicity. Furthermore, after the active expression site in LPS was prepared and purified, the structure was analyzed and the results of earnest research showed that
The active compound of the present invention has, as a basic skeleton, a structure in which a phosphoric acid group is ester-bonded at the 1-position of the structure of glucosamine β (1-6) disaccharide, and 3-hydroxy-15-m at the 2-position amino group.
Ethylhexadecanoic acid is amide-bonded and 3-hexadecanoyloxy-15-methylhexadecanoic acid is added to the amino group at the 2'position.
Was found to have an amide bond. The structure of the compound of the present invention is significantly different from that of the conventional lipid A derivative.

[Chemical 1] It is presumed that it has a structure represented by. In addition, the compound of the present invention has various biological activities such as strong mitogenic activity, adjuvant activity, polyclonal B cell activation (non-specific infection protection) activity, natural killer activity, etc., while it is found in conventional lipid A and lipid A derivatives. It was found that the activity of inducing the production of so-called inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and IL-1 from microphages was hardly observed. Therefore, it is useful as an immunostimulant without exhibiting harmful effects such as lethal toxicity and pyrogenicity, which have heretofore been problems for lipid A and lipid A derivatives. Furthermore, they have found that E. coli lipid A-induced IL-1 production is suppressed, and further that an IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) production is induced.
In addition to having strong non-specific defense against infection, pathological conditions caused by infection with Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli,
Particularly, it is useful as a prophylactic / therapeutic agent for sepsis or septic shock. In addition, IL-1 production is suppressed, and further, an IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1r
Inducing the production of a) is also useful as a therapeutic agent for pathological conditions that are considered to be in the abnormal production state of IL-1 itself, such as rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, it was found that it activates natural killer cells and has antitumor activity, and that it also has antiviral activity. It is considered to be useful as an antitumor agent from the viewpoint of antitumor activity, and useful as an antiviral agent since it has a strong nonspecific infection protective activity in addition to the antiviral activity. From such characteristics, it is expected that the novel disaccharide derivative or the salt thereof which is the compound of the present invention will be particularly useful as a pharmaceutical composition prepared by mixing with a pharmaceutical carrier and / or diluent.

The compound of the present invention has a strong mitogenic activity,
Tumor necrosis factor from microphages found in conventional lipid A and lipid A derivatives, while having various biological activities such as adjuvant activity, polyclonal B cell activation (non-specific infection protection) activity, and natural killer activity It was found that there is almost no activity that induces the production of so-called inflammatory cytokines such as (TNF) and IL-1. Therefore, it is useful as an immunostimulant without exhibiting harmful effects such as lethal toxicity and pyrogenicity, which have heretofore been problems for lipid A and lipid A derivatives. Furthermore, they found that it suppressed the lipid A-induced IL-1 production of Escherichia coli, and further induced the production of an IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra). In addition to having activity, it is useful as a prophylactic / therapeutic agent for pathological conditions caused by infection with Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, particularly sepsis or septic shock. Also, IL
Suppressing the production of IL-1 and further inducing the production of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra)
-1 It is also useful as a therapeutic agent for pathological conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis that is considered to be in the abnormal production state of -1 itself. Furthermore, it was found that it activates natural killer cells and has antitumor activity, and that it also has antiviral activity. It is considered to be useful as an antitumor agent from the viewpoint of antitumor activity, and useful as an antiviral agent since it has a strong nonspecific infection protective activity in addition to the antiviral activity.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present inventors have found that Porphyromonas (Bacteroides) gingi, which is one of the bacteria that is resident in the human oral cavity and is currently considered to be the cause of periodontal disease.
It was found that LPS contained in the cell wall outer membrane of valis has mitogenic activity and the like, and at the same time, its lethal toxicity and pyrogenicity are very weak. Furthermore, after the active expression site in LPS was prepared and purified, the structure was analyzed and the results of earnest research showed that
The active compound of the present invention has, as a basic skeleton, a structure in which a phosphoric acid group is ester-bonded at the 1-position of the structure of glucosamine β (1-6) disaccharide, and 3-hydroxy-15-m at the 2-position amino group.
Ethylhexadecanoic acid is amide-bonded and 3-hexadecanoyloxy-15-methylhexadecanoic acid is added to the amino group at the 2'position.
Was found to have an amide bond. The structure of the compound of the present invention is significantly different from that of the conventional lipid A derivative.
It is characterized in that it has no phosphate group at the position and the hydroxyl groups at the 3 and 3'positions remain free. Thus the compounds of the present invention have the formula:

[Chemical 1] It is presumed that it has a structure represented by. In addition, the compound of the present invention has various biological activities such as strong mitogenic activity, adjuvant activity, polyclonal B cell activation (non-specific infection protection) activity, natural killer activity, etc., while it is found in conventional lipid A and lipid A derivatives. tumor necrosis factor from macrophages was (TNF) and I
It was found that there is almost no activity that induces the production of so-called inflammatory cytokines such as L-1. Therefore, it is useful as an immunostimulant without exhibiting harmful effects such as lethal toxicity and pyrogenicity, which have heretofore been problems for lipid A and lipid A derivatives. Furthermore, it suppresses the production of IL-1 induced by lipid A of Escherichia coli.
It was found that it induces the production of L-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), and these activities, together with having a strong non-specific protective activity against infection, are caused by infection with Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli. It is useful as a prophylactic / therapeutic agent for pathological conditions, particularly sepsis or septic shock. It also suppresses the production of IL-1 and further suppresses IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra).
Inducing the production of is also useful as a therapeutic agent for pathological conditions that are considered to be in the abnormal production state of IL-1 itself, such as rheumatoid arthritis. further,
In addition to activating natural killer cells and having antitumor activity, it was revealed that they also have antiviral activity. It is considered to be useful as an antitumor agent from the viewpoint of antitumor activity, and useful as an antiviral agent since it has a strong nonspecific infection protective activity in addition to the antiviral activity. From such characteristics, it is expected that the novel disaccharide derivative or the salt thereof which is the compound of the present invention will be particularly useful as a pharmaceutical composition prepared by mixing with a pharmaceutical carrier and / or diluent.
