Abstract: | Serum thymic factor (FTS) and Gln1]-FTS were synthesized by fragment condensation using the azide procedure. d-Ala6]-FTS was prepared by stepwise amino acid condensation in combination with fragment condensation on solid-phase resin. Synthetic FTS and Gln1]-FTS both enhanced the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) level to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) in mice at a dose of 0.1 ng/mouse per day, while a dose of 1.0 ng/mouse per day of d-Ala6]-FTS was needed for the enhancement reaction. |
