ABSTRACT:
The active component of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is a compound which has been isolated from the controlled aerobic fermentation of a marine microorganism, Agrobacterium sp. PH-103. The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention, useful for post surgical graft tolerance, are thus directed to compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient, and an effective amount of the compound having the formula: ##STR1## This compound, known as Sesbanimide, is an alkaloid that has been previously been isolated from seeds and reported to be useful as an antitumor drug. Prior to the present invention however, this compound had not been isolated from any fermentation broth nor had it been determined to have immunomodulatory activity.
