Enzyme modifiable, hollow self-assembled structures offer an excellent scope for multiantennary delivery vectors. Herein, we report synthesis and applications of bis-galactose lysine based supramolecular ensembles, which possess surface galactose moieties

The development of a galactose-capped gold nanoparticle-based colorimetric sensor for the detection of the lectin heat-labile enterotoxin is reported. Heat-labile enterotoxin is one of the pathogenic agents responsible for the intestinal disease called 'traveller's diarrhoea'. By means of specific interaction between galactose moieties attached to the surface of gold nanoparticles and receptors on the B-subunit of heat-labile enterotoxin (LTB), the gold nanoparticles reported here act as an efficient colorimetric sensor, which can detect the toxin at nanomolar concentrations. The effect of gold nanoparticle size on the detection sensitivity was investigated in detail. Amongst the various sizes of gold nanoparticles studied (2, 7, 12, and 20 nm), the 12 nm sized gold nanoparticles were found to be the most efficient, with a minimum heat-labile enterotoxin detection concentration of 100 nM. The red to purple colour change of the gold nanoparticle solution occurred within two minutes, indicating rapid toxin sensing. This journal is

Epothilone, the macrolide compound produced by Sorangium cellulosum, has antitumor activity. Its anti-tumor mechanism is similar to that of paclitaxel, which promotes the polymerization of tubulin and induces apoptosis. Herein, 7-O-β-d-galactosyl-polyethy

Page/Page column 11; 12, (2022/02/28)
The present invention relates to a synthesis process of β-6-sulfoquinovosyl-diacylglycerols. In particular, said process is for the synthesis of the compounds 1,2-O-distearoyl-3-O-(β- sulfoquinovosyl)-R/S-glycerol, 1,2-O-distearoyl-3-O-(β-sulfoquinovosyl)-R-glycerol or 1,2- O-distearoyl-3-O-(β-sulfoquinovosyl)-S-glycerol, named respectively Sulfavant A, Sulfavant R and Sulfavant S.

Thanks to their ability to bind to specific biological receptors, mannosylated structures are examined in biomedical applications. One of the most common ways of linking a functional moiety to a structure is to use an azide-alkyne click reaction. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare and isolate a propargylated mannose derivative of high purity to maintain its bioactivity. Three known preparations of propargyl-α-mannopyranoside were revisited, and products were analysed by NMR spectroscopy. The preparations were shown to yield by-products that have not been described in the literature yet. Our experiments showed that one-step procedures could not provide pure propargyl-α-mannopyranoside, while a three-step procedure yielded the desired compound of high purity.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a human pathogen belonging to the top priorities for the discovery of new therapeutic solutions. Its propensity to generate biofilms strongly complicates the treatments required to cure P.A. infections. Herein, we describe the synthesis of a series of novel rotaxanes composed of a central galactosylated pillar[5]arene, a tetrafucosylated dendron, and a tetraguanidinium subunit. Besides the high affinity of the final glycorotaxanes for the two P.A. lectins LecA and LecB, potent inhibition levels of biofilm growth were evidenced, showing that their three subunits work synergistically. An antibiofilm assay using a double δlecAδlecB mutant compared to the wild type demonstrated that the antibiofilm activity of the best glycorotaxane is lectin-mediated. Such antibiofilm potency had rarely been reached in the literature. Importantly, none of the final rotaxanes was bactericidal, showing that their antibiofilm activity does not depend on bacteria killing, which is a rare feature for antibiofilm agents.
