Various studies have suggested the efficacy of FK-506 in the treatment of a number of ailments, including rheumatoid arthitis (C. Arita, et al., Clincial exp. Immunol. , 1990, 82 , 456-461; N. Inamura, et al., Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol. 1988, 46 , 82-90), recent-onset diabetes (N. Murase, et al., Diabetes , 1990, 39 , 1584-86; N.

Sakr, et al., Life Sci ., 1990, 47 , 687-91) allergic encephalomyelitis (K, Deguchi, et al., Brain Nerve , 1990, 42 , 391-97), glomerulonephritis (J. McCauley, et al., Lancet , 1990, 335 , 674) and systemic lupus erythematosus (K. Takabayashi, et al., Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol. , 1989, 51 , 110-117) multidrug resistance (M. Naito, et al., Cancer Chemother . Pharmacol ., 1992, 29 , 195-200), inflammation of mucosa and blood vessels ( PCT Publication WO 91/17754 ), cytomegalovirus infection ( UK Publication GB 2,247,620A ), and idiopathic thrombocytophenic purpura and Basedow's disease ( PCT Publication WO 91/19495 ). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Immunoregulatory abnormalities have been shown to exist in a wide variety of "autoimmune" and chronic inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosis, chronic rheumatoid arthritis, type I and II diabetes mellitus, inflammatory bowel disease, biliary cirrhosis, uveitis, multiple sclerosis and other disorders such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, bullous pemphigoid, sarcoidosis, psoriasis, ichthyosis, and Graves ophthalmopathy. Although the underlying pathogenesis of each of these conditions may be quite different, they have in common the appearance of a variety of autoantibodies and self-reactive lymphocytes. Such self-reactivity may be due, in part, to a loss of the homeostatic controls under which the normal immune system operates. Similarly, following a bone-marrow or an organ transplantation, the host lymphocytes recognize the foreign tissue antigens and begin to produce antibodies which lead to graft rejection. One end result of an autoimmune or a rejection process is tissue destruction caused by inflammatory cells and the mediators they release. Antiinflammatory agents such as NSAID's and corticosteroids act principally by blocking the effect or secretion of these mediators but do nothing to modify the immunologic basis of the disease. On the other hand, cytotoxic agents such as cyclophosphamide, act in such a nonspecific fashion that both the normal and autoimmune responses are shut off. Indeed, patients treated with such nonspecific immunosuppressive agents are as likely to succumb from infection as they are from their autoimmune disease. Cyclosporin A which was approved by the US FDA in 1983 is currently the leading drug used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. The drug acts by inhibiting the body's immune system from mobilizing its vast arsenal of natural protecting agents to reject the transplant's foreign protein. Though cyclosporin A is effective in fighting transplant rejection, it is nephrotoxic and is known to cause several undesirable side effects including kidney failure, abnormal liver function and gastrointestinal discomfort. Newer, safer drugs exhibiting less side effects are constantly being searched for in the field. The 23-membered tricyclo-macrolide immunosuppressant, tacrolimus, FR-900506, FK-506, (17-allyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4''-hydroxy-3''-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo-[22.3.1.0 4,9 ]-octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone) and related compounds which were isolated and characterized by Tanaka, Kuroda, and co-workers at Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Co. in Japan, see J. Am. Chem. Soc. , 1987, 109 , 5031, and U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 , issued January 16, 1990) have been shown to possess exceptional immunosuppressive activity. Fujisawa United States patents ( U.S. Patent No. 4,929,611 , issued May 29, 1990, U.S. Patent No. 4,956,352 , issued September 11, 1990 and U.S. Patent No. 5,110,811 , issued May 5, 1992) disclose the use of FK-506-type compounds in treating resistance to transplantation. In particular, the compound FR-900506 has been reported to be 100 times more effective than cyclosporin in the supression of in vitro immune systems ( J. Antibiotics 1987, 40 , 1256). In addition, these compounds are reputed to possess topical activity in the treatment of inflammatory and hyperproliferative skin diseases and cutaneous manifestations of immunologically-mediated illnesses ( EPO Pub. No. 0,315,978 ). The compound FK-506 and related compounds further have been suggested to be useful in the treatment of obstructive airways disease, particularly asthma ( PCT Publication WO 90/14826 ), male pattern alopecia or alopecia senilis ( EPO Publication No. 0,423,714) , rheumatoid arthitis (C. Arita, et al., Clincial exp. Immunol. , 1990, 82 , 456-461; N. Inamura, et al., Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol. 1988, 46 , 82-90), recent-onset diabetes (N.

Preparation of Compounds Within the Scope of the Present Invention The starting materials for the preparation of the compounds of this invention are represented by Formula II: wherein: E is hydrogen or methyl: W is O or (H, OH); R 3 is hydrogen, hydroxy, or C 1-6 alkoxy; R 4 is hydrogen, or R 3 and R 4 taken together form a double bond; R 5 is methyl, ethyl, propyl or allyl; and n is 1 or 2. The production and characterization of compounds of Formula II is well known in the literature (see U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 issued January 16, 1990; U.S. Patent No. 4,929,611 issued May 29, 1990; U.S. Patent No. 3,244,592 issued April 15, 1966; EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 ,; EPO Publication No. 0,356, 399 ; PBJ Disclosure 63-17884 ; J. Am. Chem. Soc. , 1987, 109 , 5031; J. Antibiotics , 1987, 40 , 1249, J. Antibiotics , 1988, 41 (11), 1592; and J. Antibiotics , 1992, 45 (1), 118). Both biological fermentation and synthetic processes may be found. A synthetic route to compounds of Formula II can involve modifications of a route described in J. Am. Chem. Soc. , 1989, 111 , 1157. Biological fermentation followed by synthetic modification is presently favored in the art as the method to produce compounds of Formula II. Organisms belonging to the genus Streptomyces such as Streptomyces tsukubaensis , No. 9993 and Streptomyces hygroscopicus , var. ascomycetis , No. 14891 placed in an aqueous nutrient medium will produce desired compounds in isolable amounts. The nutrient medium contains sources of assimilable carbon and nitrogen, preferably under aerobic conditions. Produced in fermentation are four compounds of Formula II, (A) where E is methyl, W is O, R 3 is hydroxyl, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is allyl and n is 2; (B) where E is methyl, W is O, R 3 is hydroxyl, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is ethyl and n is 2; (C) where E is methyl, W is O, R 3 is hydroxyl, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is methyl and n is 2; and (D) where E is methyl W is O, R 3 is hydroxyl, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is allyl and n is 1. A lyophilized sample of the isolated Streptomyces tsukubaensis , No. 9993 was deposited with the Fermentation Research Institute, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology (No. 1-3, Higashi 1-chome, Yatabemachi Tsukuba-gun, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan) under the deposit number of FERM P-7886 (deposit date: October 5th, 1984), and then converted to Budapest Treaty route of the same depository on October 19, 1985 under the new deposit number of FERM BP-927 . Using the four compounds produced in fermentation above, the remaining compounds of Formula II may be easily produced. The allyl of R 5 may be conveniently reduced to propyl by well known methods, for example as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 . The hydroxy of R 3 may be protected by well known methods, for example as disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 . Likewise, the hydroxyl at C-4'' may also be protected. In addition, the hydroxy of R 3 may be reduced to a hydrogen or eliminated to form a double bond with R 4 (by methods disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 , EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 or EPO Publication No. 0,413,532 ). The carbonyl of W may be reduced to the alcohol by methods disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 or by methods disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,445,975 . The methyl of E as produced may be replaced with hydrogen or demethylated and subsequently protected as desired, if necessary. This demethylation of compounds wherein E is methyl may be carried out in a fermentation reaction using the compounds of Formula II as a feedstock. For instance, compound A named under Formula II above may be demethylated at E above by using the microorganism Actinomycetales ATCC No. 53771 (described in U.S. Patent No. 4,981,792 ) or by using the microorganism Streptomyces tsukubaensis , No. 9993 (described in EPO Publication No. 0,353,678 ). Similarly, compound B named under Formula II above may be demethylated at E above using the microorganism Actinoplanacete sp. ATCC No. 53771 (described in EPO Publication No. 0,349,061 ). In addition the compound of Formula II wherein E is H, W is O, R 3 is hydroxy, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is ethyl and n is 2 may be produced directly by fermentation using the mutant microorganism Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus , No. 53855 (being a blocked mutant of Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus , No. 14891) (as described in EPO Publication No. 0,388,152 ). Similarly, the compound of Formula II wherein E is hydrogen, W is O, R 3 is hydroxy, R 4 is hydrogen, R 5 is methyl and n is 2 may be produced directly by fermentation using the mutant microorganism Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus , No. 53855 (being a blocked mutant of Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus , No. 14891) ( EPO Publication No. 0,388,153 ). The hydroxy of C-3'' may be protected by methods similar to those known for the protection of the hydroxyl groups of R 3 and/or C-4'', for example as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 . Suitable protecting groups for hydroxyl include those groups well known in the art such as: methylthiomethyl, ethylthiomethyl; trisubstituted silyl such as trimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, tributylsilyl, tri-i-propylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, tri-t-butylsilyl, methyl-diphenylsilyl, ethyldiphenylsilyl, t-butyldiphenylsilyl, and the like; acyl such as acetyl, pivaloyl benzoyl, 4-methoxybenzoyl, 4-nitrobenzoyl and aliphatic acyl substituted with aromatic group, which are derived from carboxylic acids; and the like. Compounds A, B, C and D of Formula II, organisms to produce the same, conditions of fermentation, separation techniques, and chemical modification of the products are fully described in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 , dated January 16, 1990, U.S. Patent No. 4,929,611 , issued May 29, 1990 and U.S. Patent No. 5,110,811 , issued May 5, 1992. The novel processes for preparing the novel compounds of the present invention are illustrated as follows, wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 5 ,R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 , E, W and n are as defined above unless otherwise indicated. It will be readily apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art reviewing the synthetic route depicted below that other compounds within Formula I can be synthesized by substitution of appropriate reactants and agents in the synthesis shown below. REACTION SCHEME A : As shown in Reaction Scheme A, a solution of a 4''-hydroxy-3''-methoxy macrolide 1 in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, benzene, toluene, chloroform, or the like or mixtures thereof is treated with a triheteroarylbismuth diacetate reagent (wherein R 1 is heteroaryl) (prepared immediately prior to use by the addition of acetic acid to a suspension of a triheteroarylbismuth carbonate in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, choroform or the like or mixture thereof) in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) acetate at a temperature of 20-50°C, preferably room temperature, for a period of one hour to seven days, preferably one day, to give the 4''-O-heteroaryl-3''-methoxy macrolide 2 . Alternatively, the triheteroarylbismuth(V) reagent can be prepared by treatment of a triheteroarylbismuthine with a suitable oxidant such as peracetic acid, benzoyl peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, iodobenzene diacetate, bis(trifluoroacetoxy) iodobenzene and the like in an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, toluene and the like. The triheteroarylbismuth(V) reagent can be used without purification or can be purified by silica gel chromatography. Triheteroarylbismuthines may be prepared by the reaction of an appropriate heteroaryl Grignard reagent or lithiated heteroaryl species with bismuth trichloride in an inert organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, toluene, or 1,4-dioxane, or mixtures thereof, at or near room temperature for a period of 1 to 48 hours. General procedures for the preparation and use of triaryl bismuth reagents may be found in Barton, D.H.E., et al., J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. , 1986, 65 and references cited therein. Reaction Scheme B: Similarly, as shown in Reaction Scheme B, a solution of the 3'',4''-dihydroxy macrolide 3 treated with a triheteroarylbismuth diacetate reagent as described in Reaction Scheme A, to give a mixture of the 3''-hydroxy-4''-O-heteroaryl macrolide 4a , the 3''-O-heteroaryl-4''-hydroxy macrolide 4b , and the 3'',4''-di-O-heteroaryl macrolide 4c . At this stage, a solution of 3''-hydroxy-4''-O-heteroaryl macrolide 4a , or 3''-O-heteroaryl-4''-hydroxy macrolide 4b can be treated with a triarylbismuth diacetate reagent (prepared immediately prior to use by procedures analogous to those disclosed above), to give 3''-O-aryl-4''-O-heteroaryl macrolide 5a , or 3''-O-heteroaryl-4''-O-aryl macrolide 5a , respectively. Reaction Scheme C: As shown in Reaction Scheme C the 14-hydroxy group of a macrolide 5a or 5b (wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 5 , R 10 , W and n are as defined above) may be eliminated by treatment with p -toluenesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid or methanesulfonic acid in an inert organic solvent such as benzene, or toluene at from 40°C to 60°C, for about 0.5 to 6 hours, or a sufficient period of time to eliminate the 14-hydroxy group. Neutralization with an aqueous solution of a weak base such as aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate gives the 14,15-dehydro macrolides 6a or 6b . The 14-hydroxy group may also be eliminated by activation followed by basic elimination, as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,894,366 . By changing the sequence of synthetic steps, all possible variations of substitution can be achieved. Reaction Scheme D: As shown in Reaction Scheme D, a solution of the 4''-hydroxy 3''-methoxy macrolide 1 in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, heptane or mixtures thereof is treated with a heteroarylalkyl, heteroarylalkenyl or heteroarylalkynyl trichloroacetimidate reagent (prepared by the reaction of an appropriate sodium alkoxide with trichloroacetonitrile, such as described by Wessel, H.P., Iversen, T., Bundle, D.R., J. Chem. Soc. , Perkin Trans. I , 1985, 2247) in the presence of a mild acid catalyst such as trifluoro-methanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, or mixtures thereof at a temperature of 20-50°C for a period of from one hour to seven days to give the 4''-O-heteroarylalkyl-, 4''-O-heteroarylalkenyl- or 4''-O-heteroarylalkynyl-3''-methoxy macrolide 2a . Reaction Scheme E: Similarly, as shown in Reaction Scheme E, a solution of the 3'',4''-dihydroxy macrolide 3 in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, heptane or the like or mixtures thereof is treated with a heteroarylalkyl, heteroarylalkenyl or heteroarylalkynyl trichloroacetimidate (prepared as described in Reaction Scheme D) at a temperature of 20-50°C, preferably 40°C, for a period of one hour to seven days, preferably 6 hours, to give a mixture of the 4''-O-heteroarylalkyl, 4''-O-heteroarylalkenyl, or 4''-O-heteroarylalkynyl-3-hydroxy macrolide 4a' , 3''-O-heteroarylalkyl, 3''-O-heteroarylalkenyl, or 3''-O-heteroarylalkynyl-4''-hydroxymacrolide 4b' and the 3'',4''-di-O-heteroarylalkyl,-heteroarylalkenyl or -heteroarylalkynyl macrolide 4c' . Subsequently, a solution of 4''-O-heteroaryl, 4''-O-heteroarylalkyl, 4''-O-heteroarylalkenyl or 4''-O-heteroarylalkynyl-3-hydroxy macrolide 4a (from Reaction Scheme B or 4a ', or 3''-O-heteroaryl-, 3''-O-heteroarylalkyl, 3''-O-heteroarylalkenyl, 3''-O-heteroarylalkynyl-4''-hydroxymacrolide 4b from Reaction Scheme B or 4b ' can be treated with an arylalkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl trichloroacetimidate by procedures described above.) to give macrolides 5a' or 5b '. The procedures described in Reaction Schemes C and D may optionally be conducted following the procedures of Reaction Scheme E or F. Alternatively, the procedures described in Reaction Scheme F may be performed. In any of the aforementioned Reaction Schemes, the macrolide (wherein R 1 and/or R 2 contains an alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkynyl or substituted alkynyl and wherein R 3 is hydroxy or C 1-6 alkoxy, R 4 is hydrogen, or R 3 and R 4 taken together form a double bond) can be reduced with tri- n -butyltin hydride in the presence of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (O) catalyst and acetic acid in an organic solvent such as toluene or tetrahydrofuran at or near room temperature for about 2 to 10 hours to give the reduced macrolide. The procedures described in Reaction Scheme F may be conducted on the mono-substituted products of Reaction Scheme B (and visa versa) to obtain the mixed disubstituted compounds. In fact, within Reaction Schemes B and F, treatment of the mono-substituted product with a different reagent will afford the mixed disubstituted compounds. Reaction Scheme F: Protection of the C-3'', C-4'' and/or the C-14 hydroxyl group(s) may be accomplished by methods known in the prior art for compounds of Formula II such as by treatment with: 2,6-lutidine and triisopropylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate in a solution of methylene chloride; 2,6-lutidine and t-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate in a solution of methylene chloride; pyridine and acetic anhydride in a solution of methylene chloride; pyridine and benzoyl chloride in a solution of dichloromethane; pyridine and p-nitrobenzoyl chloride in a solution of dichloromethane; imidazole and t-butyldiphenylsilyl chloride in a solution of methylene chloride; and the like. For example, as shown in Reaction Scheme F, the C-4'',14-dihydroxy-C-3''-methoxy macrolide 7 may be protected at C-14 as the t-butyldimethylsilyl ether by treatment with t-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate in methylene chloride to give the C-4'',14-di-O-TBDMS macrolide. Treatment with toluenesulfonic acid in methanol results in selective removal of the C-4'' silyl ether to give the C-14-O-TBDMS macrolide 8 . Reaction Scheme G: As shown in Reaction Scheme G, the 4''-hydroxy-3''-R 2 O macrolide 9 or alternatively the 3''-hydroxy-4''-R 2 O macrolide (not depicted) (wherein R 3 is protected hydroxy or hydrogen) may be reacted with an alkenyl trichloroacetimidate (wherein alkenyl is C 3-10 alkenyl) under conditions described in Reaction Scheme E to give the O-alkenyl macrolide 10 . Treatment with a stoichiometric amount of osmium tetroxide in an inert organic solvent, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, in the presence of an amine base, such as pyridine, at or near room temperature gives the corresponding glycol 11 (wherein A is C 1-8 alkyl). Treatment of glycol 11 with sodium metaperiodate in a solution of tetrahydrofuran/water gives aldehyde 12 . Alternatively, the alkenyl macrolide 10 may be treated with sodium metaperiodate in the presence of a catalytic amount of osmium tetroxide in an organic solvent to give the aldehyde directly. Aldehyde 12 can be further oxidized to carboxylic acid 13 by any number of methods commonly used. Reaction Scheme H: A variety of compounds may be prepared from aldehyde 12 as illustrated in Reaction Scheme H. Aldehyde 12 may be reacted with a primary or secondary amine, HNR 6 R 7 (wherein R 6 and/or R 7 are as defined and contain(s) a heteroaryl group) in an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran to give an imine which is reduced in situ with a hydride reducing agent, such as sodium cyanoborohydride, to give macrolide 14 bearing an aminoalkoxy functionality at C-4''. Aldehyde 12 may also be reduced to the corresponding alcohol 15 by treatment with a hydride reducing agent, such as potassium triphenyl borohydride or sodium cyanoborohydride in an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran. Alcohol 15 may be further modified by utilizing the methods of Reaction Scheme B (wherein R 1 is as defined) or Reaction Scheme E to produce macrolide 16 . The procedures described in Reaction Scheme H are readily applicable to the preparation of compounds bearing analagous functionality at C-3''. REACTION SCHEME I Amide derivatives may be prepared from the carboxylic acid 13 as illustrated in Reaction Scheme I. The carboxylic acid 13 may be coupled with a primary or secondary amine, HNR 6 R 7 (wherein R 6 and/or R 7 are as defined and contain(s) a heteroaryl group) by any of the peptide coupling methods commonly used in the art, such as with BOP reagent or DCC/HOBT. REACTION SCHEME J A hydroxyl or fluoro group may be introduced at C-20 essentially by the procedures of Reaction Scheme J. As shown in Reaction Scheme R the 4'',14-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 14-deoxymacrolide) is protected as the di( t -butyldimethylsilyl ether) by treatment with t -butyldimethylsilyl triflate in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform or the like in the presence of a non-nucleophillic base such as 2,6-lutidine. The diprotected macrolide is oxidized at C-20 as further shown in Reaction Scheme J by treatment with selenium dioxide in an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol in the presence of pyridine at solvent reflux temperature to give the 20-hydroxy macrolide ( 18 ). The 20-hydroxy macrolide may be further derivatized at C-20 by alkylation, acylation or phosphorylation to give ether, ester or phosphate derivatives by procedures well known to the practitioner of the art. As further illustrated, treatment of the 20-hydroxy 4'',14-di-OTBS macrolide with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform or the like at a temperature of about 0°C to -90°C, preferably about -78°C, gives the 20-fluoro 4'', 14-di-OTBS macrolide ( 19 ). Removal of the silyl ether protecting groups by treatment with hydrogen fluoride-pyridine complex in tetrahydrofuran gives the 20-fluoro 4'',14-dihydroxy macrolide which may be further derivatized by any of the methods previously described. Reaction Scheme J may also be performed on the 3'', 4'', 14-trihydroxy macrolide to give the 20-fluoro 3'', 4'', 14-trihydroxy macrolide. The procedures of Reaction Scheme J may be conducted prior to, concurrent with, or subsequent to the procedures of Reaction Schemes A-I. The object compounds of Formula I obtained according to the reactions as explained above can be isolated and purified in a conventional manner, for example, extraction, precipitation, fractional crystallization, recrystallization, chromatography, and the like. In the compounds of Formula I, OR 1 may be substituted at C-4'' or C-3'', or both C-4'' and C-3'' (wherein R 2 is independently selected from the definitions of R 1 ), but it is preferred that -OR 1 is substituted at C-4''.

EXAMPLE 83 T-Cell Proliferation Assay 1. Sample Preparation The compounds to be assayed were dissolved in absolute ethanol at 1 mg/ml. 2. Assay Spleens from C57B1/6 mice were taken under sterile conditions and gently dissociated in ice-cold RPMI 1640 culture medium (GIBC), Grand Island, N. Y.) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (GIBO)). Cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes. Contaminating red cells were removed by treating the pellet with ammonium chloride lysing buffer (GIBO)) for 2 minutes at 4°C. Cold medium was added and cells were again centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes. T lymphocytes were then isolated by separation of the cell suspension on nylon wool columns as follows: Nylon wool columns were prepared by packing approximately 4 grams of washed and dried nylon wool into 20 ml plastic syringes. The columns were sterilized by autoclaving at 25°F for 30 minutes. Nylon wool columns were wetted with warm (37°C) culture medium and rinsed with the same medium. Washed spleen cells resuspended in warm medium were slowly applied to the nylon wool. The columns were then incubated in an upright position at 37°C for 1 hour. Non-adherent T lymphocytes were eluted from the columns with warm culture medium and the cell suspensions were spun as above. Purified T lymphocytes were resuspended at 2.5 x 10 5 cells/ml in complete culture medium composed of RPMI 1640 medium with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, 100 mM glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 2 x 10 -5 M 2-mercaptoethanol and 50 µg/ml gentamycin. Ionomycin was added at 250 ng/ml and PMA at 10 ng/ml. The cell suspension was immediately distributed into 96 well flat-bottom microculture plates (Costar) at 200 µl/well. The various dilutions of the compound to be tested were then added in triplicate wells at 20 µl/well. The compound 17-allyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4''-hydroxy-3''-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.0 4,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone was used as a standard. The culture plates were then incubated at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO 2 -95% air for 44 hours. The proliferation of T lymphocytes was assessed by measurement of tritiated thymidine incorporation. After 44 hours of culturing, the cells were pulse-labelled with 2 µCi/well of tritiated thymidine (NEN, Cambridge, MA). After another 4 hours of incubation, cultures were harvested on glass fiber filters using a multiple sample harvester. Radioactivity of filter discs corresponding to individual wells was measured by standard liquid scintillation counting methods (Betacounter). Mean counts per minute of replicate wells were calculated and the results expressed as concentration of compound required to inhibit tritiated thymidine uptake of T-cells by 50%. A selection of compounds were tested according to the previous procedure. The title compounds of the following Examples had activity in inhibiting the proliferation of T-cells in the aforementioned assay: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13, 14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,23,26,28,31,32,33,34, 35, 37, 39, 42, 44, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 57, 58, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 69, 71, 72 and 73. The results of this assay are representative of the intrinsic immunosuppressive activity of the compounds of the present invention. For determining antagonist activity, the foregoing procedure is modified in that dilutions of compounds are cultured with 17-ally-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4''-hydroxy-3''-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.0 4,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10, 16-tetraone (as a standard) at a concentration of 1.2 nM, a concentration which inhibits T cell proliferation by 100%, the concentration of compound required to reverse the inhibition obtained by the standard alone by 50% is measured, and the ED 50 value is determined.
