Glycoceramides can activate NKT cells by binding with CD1d to produce IFN-gamma, IL-4, and other cytokines. An efficient synthetic pathway for alpha-galactosylceramide (KRN7000) was established by coupling a protected galactose donor to a properly protected ceramide. During the investigation, it was discovered that when the ceramide was protected with benzyl groups, only beta-galactosylceramide was produced from the glycosylation reaction. In contrast, the ceramide with benzoyl protecting groups produced alpha-galactosylceramide. Isoglobotrihexosylceramide (iGb3) was prepared by glycosylation of Galalpha1-3Galbeta1-4Glc donor with 2-azido-sphingosine in high yield. Biological assays on the synthetic KRN7000 and iGb3 were performed using human and murine iNKT cell clones or hybridomas.
糖神经酰胺可通过与CD1d结合激活NKT细胞，从而产生γ干扰素、白细胞介素-4及其他细胞因子。通过将受保护的半乳糖供体与适当保护的神经酰胺偶联，建立了α - 半乳糖神经酰胺（KRN7000）的高效合成途径。在研究过程中发现，当神经酰胺用苄基保护时，糖基化反应仅生成β - 半乳糖神经酰胺。相比之下，带有苯甲酰保护基的神经酰胺则生成α - 半乳糖神经酰胺。通过将Galα1-3Galβ1-4Glc供体与2-叠氮基鞘氨醇进行糖基化反应，以高产率制备了异球三己糖神经酰胺（iGb3）。使用人和小鼠的iNKT细胞克隆或杂交瘤对合成的KRN7000和iGb3进行了生物学测定。
