α-GalCer
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
α-Galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) is a synthetic glycolipid with antitumorial and immunostimulatory. α-Galactosylceramide is a very potent NKT cell agonist and binds effectively to CD1d. The complex of α-Galactosylceramide plus CD1d binds the NKT cell TCR (T cell antigen receptor).

Culture supernatants of activated Vα24+NKT-cell cultures stimulated with α-Galactosylceramide pulsed monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Mo-DCs) exhibits antiproliferative activities against melanoma cells. This effect is predominantly due to release of IFN-γ, and to a lesser extent IL-12. Other cytokines, including IL-4 and IL-10, are released but these cytokines have less antiproliferative effects. Vα24+NKT-cells stimulated by α-Galactosylceramide-pulsed Mo-DCs have anti-tumour activities against human melanoma through antiproliferative effects exerted by soluble mediators[3].

Since α-Galactosylceramide shows a potent antitumor activity and stimulates the lymphocyte proliferation (LP) on allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) in the mouse, α-Galactosylceramide is considered to be a nonspecific immunostimulating agent which is a biological response modifier[4].
