Abstract:
The invention relates to compound of the formula (I) or its salt, wherein —R1, —R2, —R3, —R4, —R5, -M-, —X— and —Y═ are as defined in the description, their use of as, medicament, the process for their preparation and use for the treatment of JAK3 mediated diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention is a method of producing iturin A, in which cells of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens are incubated and iturin A is collected from the culture. It also relates to an antifungal agent for profound mycosis, containing iturin A as the active ingredient. Heretofore, there have been known few medicines effective against profound mycosis, but iturin A may be an effective antifungal agent for profound mycosis.
