Abstract:
A strong immunomodulatory effect of 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-2,4-cyclopyrophosphate (MEC) responsible for the survival of bacteria was shown on isolated macrophages and in experimental infections in mice (typhoid and tularemia). Derivatives of MEC were found by 1H-NMR spectroscopy under stress conditions in colorless mutants of the bacteria and isolated to be subsequently purified and used for modulation of the immune system of animals.
