-
, (2014/05/24)
Compounds and methods are provided for enhancing the oral availability of glycomimetics. More specifically, in an embodiment, a glycomimetic is modified to decrease the polar surface area of the glycomimetic in order to increase absorption from the GI tract. In another embodiment, a glycomimetic is targeted to an active transport system, such as the bile acid active transport system, that provides transport across a biological membrane in order to increase absorption of the glycomimetic from the Gl tract.
