New compositions and methods for treating patients suffering from hepatitis-C, AIDS, aberrant apoptosis which include N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl(beta-1-4)-N-Acetyl-muramyl-L-ananyl-D-isoglutamine (GMDP) of at least 98% purity and provided either alone, as an active ingredient of blastolysine, or in combination with an aminosugar such as N-acetyl-glucosamine(NAG). The high purity GMDP has a decreased amount immunogenic impurities and demonstrates cell protection as opposed to solely immunostimulatory effects, while a synergistic cell protective effect is exhibited when GMDP in combined with NAG. The new compositions modulate FasL mediated apoptosis while simultaneously stimulating TNF-alpha production and further selectively inhibiting TNF-alpha receptor p55 (TNFR1), providing a treatment for patients suffering from hepatitis-C, AIDS or aberrant apoptosis.
