Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a noninvasive binary therapeutic modality applicable to the treatment of cancers. While BNCT offers a tumor-targeting selectivity that is difficult to match by other means, the last obstacles preventing the full har

We describe the synthesis of the unusual bicyclic sugar bradyrhizose in 14 steps and a 6% overall yield from d-glucose. The synthesis involves the elaboration of a trans-fused carbocyclic ring onto the preexisting glucopyranose framework followed by adjus

Golgi endo-α-mannosidase (G-EM) catalyzes an alternative deglucosylation process for N-glycans and plays important roles in the post-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control pathway. To understand the post-ER quality control mechanism, we synthesized a tetrasaccharide probe for the detection of the hydrolytic activity of G-EM based on a fluorescence quenching assay. The probe was labeled with an N-methylanthraniloyl group as a reporter dye at the non-reducing end and a 2,4-dinitrophenyl group as a quencher at the reducing end. This probe is hydrolyzed to disaccharide derivatives by G-EM, resulting in increased fluorescence intensity. Thus, the fluorescence signal is directly proportional to the amount of disaccharide derivative present, allowing the G-EM activity to be evaluated easily and quantitatively.

The incidences of primary, pyrogenic liver abscess complicated by meningitis and septic endophthalmitis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae has increased globally. Earlier studies have shown that the capsular polysaccharide (CPS) of Klebsiella pneumoniae plays an important role in the resistance to phagocytosis and related pathogenicity. The first chemical synthesis of the trisaccharide repeating unit of this CPS has been achieved via stereoselective glycosylation with orthogonal and appropriate protecting groups. A new method for the pyruvylation of trans diol was developed.

Glycoconjugation is a promising strategy for specific targeting of cancer. In this study, we investigated the effect of d-glucose substitution position on the biological activity of glucose-platinum conjugates (Glc-Pts). We synthesized and characterized all possible positional isomers (C1α, C1β, C2, C3, C4, and C6) of a Glc-Pt. The synthetic routes presented here could, in principle, be extended to prepare glucose conjugates with different active ingredients, other than platinum. The biological activities of the compounds were evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. We discovered that varying the position of substitution of d-glucose alters not only the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity profile but also the GLUT1 specificity of resulting glycoconjugates, where GLUT1 is glucose transporter 1. The C1α- and C2-substituted Glc-Pts (1α and 2) accumulate in cancer cells most efficiently compared to the others, whereas the C3-Glc-Pt (3) is taken up least efficiently. Compounds 1α and 2 are more potent compared to 3 in DU145 cells. The α- and β-anomers of the C1-Glc-Pt also differ significantly in their cellular uptake and activity profiles. No significant differences in uptake of the Glc-Pts were observed in non-cancerous RWPE2 cells. The GLUT1 specificity of the Glc-Pts was evaluated by determining the cellular uptake in the absence and in the presence of the GLUT1 inhibitor cytochalasin B, and by comparing their anticancer activity in DU145 cells and a GLUT1 knockdown cell line. The results reveal that C2-substituted Glc-Pt 2 has the highest GLUT1-specific internalization, which also reflects the best cancer-targeting ability. In a syngeneic breast cancer mouse model overexpressing GLUT1, compound 2 showed antitumor efficacy and selective uptake in tumors with no observable toxicity. This study thus reveals the synthesis of all positional isomers of d-glucose substitution for platinum warheads with detailed glycotargeting characterization in cancer.

β-(1→2)-Linked oligomannosides constitute an important class of carbohydrate structures located on the cell surface of several Candida species, including C. albicans. As a result of the immunostimulating properties of such compounds, the upscaling of their synthesis is relevant. In this paper, a highly stereoselective synthesis of |β-(1→2)-linked oligomannosides was performed by further development of and modifications to the methodologies described earlier in the literature. In addition to the synthesis of fully deprotected β-(1→2)-linked mannobiose and mannotriose, some preliminary modifications to the oligosaccharide core, resulting in close analogues with biological potential, are presented. The fully deprotected products form potential targets for screening against C. albicans and may also result in new model structures for vaccine development.

Several studies have implicated (1 → 2)-linked mannans as biologically relevant compounds. Recently, there has been a growing interest in the synthesis of multivalent carbohydrate assemblies due to their ability to target multiple receptors simultaneously. In the present work, a protective group strategy, based on the methodology originally developed by Crich, has been utilized for the homodimerization of olefinic carbohydrates, allowing a highly diastereoselective synthesis of some divalent structures. Furthermore, it is shown that divalent donors may undergo coupling reactions without losses in stereoselectivity or efficiency. The strategies described may potentially be applied to the synthesis of diverse neoglycoconjugates and oligosaccharides. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
