Abstrakt: The immunopharmacological properties of two new compounds with an 8-azasteroidal structure, representing the salts (hydrochloride and acetate) of 12-imino-substituted 8-aza-D-homogonan, were studied in comparison with the properties of the immunostimulant trimeson. Similar to trimeson, both new compounds produce a dose-dependent activation of the humoral chain of immunogenesis in the model of primary immune response to goat erythrocytes in CBA, C57BL/6, and C57W mice. The immunostimulant activity of the 8-aza-D-homogonan derivatives is inversely proportional to the antigen load (2 x 10(7)-2 x 10(9) goat erythrocytes per mice) and depends to a considerable extent of the genotype of experimental animals. A modification of the 8-aza-D-homogonan structure by substituting imino group for oxygen at position 12 of the 8-azasteroidal skeleton leads to a sharp increase in toxicity as compared to that of trimeson.
