     The pharmacological tests of Compound (I) are described below. 
     (1) Plaque Forming Cell Assay 
     The plaque forming cell assay was performed by the following manner with reference to the method of Jerne [Science, 140, 405, (1963)] and the method of Yamamoto et al. [Drugs Exptl. Clin. Res., 8, 5, (1982)]. 
     Male Balb/c stain mice (aged 7 weeks, SLC) were sensitized with 1×10 8  sheep red blood cells (Bio Test Research Institute), and 6 or 7 days after the sensitization, the spleen was extirpated. The cells obtained from the spleen were treated with ACT solution (tris-ammonium chloride isotonic buffer) to remove red blood cells. The cells were washed three times with an RPMI-1640 medium (Nissui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.). The spleen cells (1×10 7  cells), the test compound dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide and sheep blood red cells (5×10 6 ) were suspended in an RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% bovine serum (Gibco Company), 2-mercaptoethanol (5×10 -5  M), 50 μg/ml of streptomycin and 50 IU/ml of penicillin. The suspension was distributed into a microculture plate (NUNC Co., Ltd., 24 holes), and incubated for 5 days in a carbon dioxide gas incubater at 37° C. 
     After the termination of incubation, the cells were transferred to a plastic test tube. The supernatant was removed by centrifugal separation (2000 rpm), and the pellet was re-suspended in 1 ml of an RPMI-1640 culture medium. The cell suspension, sheep blood red cells, and guinea pig complement (Cedarlene Institute) were incubated by the method of Cunningham [Immunology, 14, 599, (1968)], at 37° C. for 1 to 2 hours. The appearing direct plaque cells (PFC count) in suspension were counted. From the resulting PFC count, the inhibition rate of the antibody production of the test compound was determined by the following formula. ##EQU1## A: PFC count in the absence of test compound (dimethylsulfoxide alone) B: PFC count in the presence of test compound 
     The results are shown in Table 2.

     Depression of function of T cells produce hypertension of B cells, and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis are considered to be a tissue injury which is caused by hypertension of B cells. Therefore, Compound (I), which inhibits antibody production, is expected to have effect on autoimmune diseases. 
     (2) Passive Schultz-Dale (S-D) Reaction 
     Male Hartley guinea pigs weighing 350 to 500 g were passively sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of rabbit anti-OA serum prepared in advance by the method of Koda et al. [Folia Pharmacol., Japon 66, 237, (1970)]. After 24 hours, the guinea pigs were stunned and exsanguinated, and then tracheae were removed. The zig-zag strips of the tracheae were prepared by the method of Emmerson and Mackay [J. Pharm. Pharmacol., 31, 798, (1979)]. The strips were suspended in Krebs-Henseleit solution at 37° C. under aeration of a mixed gas of 95% oxygen and 5% carbon dioxide, and equilibrated for one hour. Then, antigen (egg white albumin) was introduced in the solution (final concentration; 1 μg/ml), and the contraction was measured by isotonictransducer (TD-112s, Nihon Kohden Co., Ltd.) and recorded on a recorder (Type 3066, Yokogawa-Hokushin Denki, Co., Ltd.). After the contraction curves reached a plateau, the test compounds were successively added in order to get cumulative concentration-relaxation curves. The concentration of 50% relaxation rate (IC 50 ) was culculated from the regression line, which was obtained from the cumulative concentration-relaxation curves. 
     The results are shown in Table 3. 
     (3) Inhibition Effect on Platelet Activating Factor (PAF)-Induced Mortality 
     The experiment was performed by a minor modification of method of Carlson et al. [Agents and Actions, 21, 379 (1987)]. Groups each consisting of 10 male dd mice (weighing 28 to 32 g) were used, and 100 mg/kg of test compound or a saline (control) was orally administered. One hour after the administration of test compound, 40 μg/kg of PAF (manufactured by Avanti Polar Lipids Co., Ltd.) was intravenously administered. Two hours after PAF injection, the mortality rate of the animals was observed. The compound whose mortality rate was significantly (p&lt;0.05: Fischer&#39;s accurate probability tests) lower than control is regarded as having inhibitory effect on PAF-induced mortality, and the results in Table 3 were represented by minimum effective dose (MED).

     (4) Hair Growth Stimulation 
     Effect of test compound on hair growth in mice was examined. Hair on the back of male C3H/HeSlc-strain mice aged 9 weeks, which was in the telogen of hair cycle was clipped off by an electric hair-clipper. The test compound dissolved in a solvent mixture [ethanol:propyleneglycol (6:4)] was uniformly applied to the hair removed area of the mice once a day. Concentration of the test compound was shown in Table 4. The group which received the solvent mixture alone was used as control.

     Hair growth stimulation was estimated by measuring the ratio of the hair growing area to the test compound treated area by photograph. In the test compound received group, darkening of intraderma (indicating the formation of hair follicles) was observed on the 10th day, and then hair growth rapidly progressed. On the 16th day, marked hair growth was observed in most of the test compound treated area. In contrast, on the 16th day of the control group, darkening of intraderma was observed only in the part of the solvent treated area and hair growth scarcely occurred Table 5 shows the ratio of hair growing area to the test compound treated area on the 16th day.

     Furthermore, in the test compound received group, a complete regeneration of hair was observed on about 20th day. During experiment, on the test compound treated area of skin, abnormality such as dermatitis was not observed. 
     (5) Acute Toxicity Test 
     Male dd-stain mice weighing 20-25 g, groups each consisting of 3 animals, were used, and Compound 1 and Compound 3 were orally administered. MLD was determined by observing the mortality for seven days after the administration. MLD of both compounds were over 300 mg/kg.
