Semisynthetic analogues of gangliosides selected from the group consisting of N-sulfo-, N-hydrocarbyl-sulfonyl- and N-hydrocarbyloxy-sulfonyl-N,N'-dilyso-gangliosides and the N'-acyl derivatives thereof, N'-sulfo-, N'-hydrocarbylsulfonyl- and N'-hydrocarbyloxy-sulfonyl-N,N'-dilyso-gangliosides and the N-acyl derivatives thereof, N,N'-di or polysulfo-N,N'-di- or poly-lyso-gangliosides, N,N'-di- or polyhydrocarbylsulfonyl-N,N'-di- or poly-lyso-gangliosides and N,N'-di- or polyhydrocarbyloxy-N,N'-di- or poly-lyso-gangliosides, and functional derivatives thereof, and salts of these compounds, have protective activity against neurotoxicity induced by excitatory amino acids and are foreseen to be used in therapy in the nervous system and in modulating of the expression of determinants such as CD4 on the surface of human cells in the immune system. |
