Application of A-Ring-Aromatized Acetyl-Minocyclines for Therapy of T-Cell Mediated Diseases
A Pentaacetylcyclin – an A-Ring aromatized and acetylated derivative of minocycline – is provided which exhibits immunomodulatory and neuroprotective action. The compound has been applied intraperitonally and orally in the mouse model of Multiple Sclerosis EAE (Experimental Autoimmune Enzephalomyelitis.
