Abstract: A method of stimulating endothelial cells cultivated in a nutrient medium to release a growth-factor into the nutrient medium by addition of at least one pentacyclic oxindole alkaloid into the nutrient medium.

Abstract: Endothelial cells have the natural property of releasing soluble factors into the fluid surrounding them, said factors altering the behavior of immune cells. In cell systems containing at least endothelial cells, the release of this type of factor, which promotes the proliferation of resting and weakly activated lymphocytes and at the same time inhibits the proliferation of highly activated lymphocytes and transformed lymphoblasts without impairing their other vital functions, is induced by administration of pentacyclic oxindole alkaloids but inhibited by the concurrent administration of tetracyclic oxindole alkaloids.

Abstract: To produce defined isomer mixtures of compounds with spirocyclic beta-aminocarboxyl and/or beta-aminocarbonyl systems the invention supposes that they be dissolved in solvents which have good dissolving power for these compounds, whose relative permittivity is sufficient to stabilize the amphoteric intermediates occuring in isomerization, which as proton donors constitute hydrogen bridges, whose basicity is less than that of the compounds for isomerization and whose boiling point is so high that an adequate reaction speed can be attained by raising temperature. Further, the invention proposes that the isomerization be prevented, influenced, or terminated by altering at least one of these factors and or by altering the temperature.
