Hofmann, Anna,Sommer, Roman,Hauck, Dirk,Stifel, Julia,G?ttker-Schnetmann, Inigo,Titz, Alexander
, p. 34 - 42 (2015)
Abstract Biofilm formation and chronic infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa depend on lectins produced by the bacterium. The bacterial C-type lectin LecB binds to the two monosaccharides l-fucose and d-mannose and conjugates thereof. Previously, d-manno

Provided are compositions and methods for memory enhancement, including recovery of memory impairment. The compositions and methods relate to mannose-6-phosphate and derivatives of mannose-6-phosphate. The methods relate to administration of M6P or derivatives thereof to individuals in whom memory enhancement is desired.
Chemical synthesis and preliminary biological evaluation of C-6-O-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin as a potent α-glucosidase inhibitor
Wang, Lin,Liang, Tingting,Fang, Zhijie
, p. 36 - 49 (2019/12/24)
A facile and efficient synthesis of 6-O-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin 4 from commercially available methyl α-D-glucopyranoside in 10 steps and 25% overall yield was reported. The synthetic strategy was based on the regioselective protection/deprotection at 6-
Peptide-Coated Platinum Nanoparticles with Selective Toxicity against Liver Cancer Cells

Peptide-stabilized platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) were developed that have significantly greater toxicity against hepatic cancer cells (HepG2) than against other cancer cells and non-cancerous liver cells. The peptide H-Lys-Pro-Gly-dLys-NH2 was identified by a combinatorial screening and further optimized to enable the formation of water-soluble, monodisperse PtNPs with average diameters of 2.5 nm that are stable for years. In comparison to cisplatin, the peptide-coated PtNPs are not only more toxic against hepatic cancer cells but have a significantly higher tumor cell selectivity. Cell viability and uptake studies revealed that high cellular uptake and an oxidative environment are key for the selective cytotoxicity of the peptide-coated PtNPs.
