6,6'Di-O-mycoloyl-beta,beta-trehalose (beta,beta-TDM) and 6,6'-di-O-mycoloyl-alpha,beta-trehalose (alpha,beta-TDM) were synthesized and their toxicity and ability to activate peritoneal macrophages in situ were examined in mice, in comparison with 6,6'-di-O-mycoloyl-alpha,alpha-trehalose (TDM). Both beta,beta-TDM and alpha,beta-TDM caused a decrease in body weight two days after injection, however the weights reverted to a normal level. No deaths were caused by either analog. On the other hand, TDM showed potent toxicity, causing decrease in body weight and death of all animals injected. Beta,beta-TDM and alpha,beta-TDM were effective in the in situ activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages.
