Pharmacological chaperone therapy for Gaucher disease: A patent review
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
Introduction: Mutations in the gene encoding for acid β-glucosidase (β-glucocerebrosidase, GlcCerase) are seen in Gaucher disease (GD), which give rise to significant protein misfolding effects and result in progressive ...

Mannosyl-coated nanocomplexes from amphiphilic cyclodextrins and pDNA for site-specific gene delivery
(Elsevier, 2011-10)
Fully homogeneous facial amphiphiles consisting in a cyclodextrin (CD) platform onto which a polycationic cluster and a multi-tail hydrophobic moiety have been installed (polycationic amphiphilic CDs; paCDs) self-organized ...

A Bicyclic 1-Deoxygalactonojirimycin Derivative as a Novel Pharmacological Chaperone for GM1 Gangliosidosis
(Cell Press, 2013)
Lysosomal β-galactosidase (β-Gal) deficiency causes a group of disorders that include neuronopathic GM1 gangliosidosis and non-neuronopathic Morquio B disease. We have previously proposed the use of small molecule ligands ...

Bicyclic (galacto)nojirimycin analogues as glycosidase inhibitors: Effect of structural modifications in their pharmacological chaperone potential towards β-glucocerebrosidase
(Royal Society of Chemistry (Great Britain), 2011)
A molecular-diversity-oriented approach for the preparation of bicyclic sp2-iminosugar glycomimetics related to nojirimycin and galactonojirimycin is reported. The synthetic strategy takes advantage of the ability of ...

Cyclodextrin-mediated Crystallization of Acid β-glucosidase in Complex with Amphiphilic Bicyclic Nojirimycin Analogues
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011)
Cyclodextrin-based host-guest chemistry has been exploited to facilitate co-crystallization of recombinant human acid β-glucosidase (β-glucocerebrosidase, GlcCerase) with amphiphilic bicyclic nojirimycin analogues of the ...

Glycomimetic-based pharmacological chaperones for lysosomal storage disorders: lessons from Gaucher, GM1-gangliosidosis and Fabry diseases
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are often caused by mutations that destabilize native folding and impair the trafficking of enzymes, leading to premature endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation, deficiencies ...

Cyclodextrin- and calixarene-based polycationic amphiphiles as gene delivery systems: A structure-activity relationship study
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
Multi-head/multi-tail facial amphiphiles built on cyclodextrin (CD) and calixarene (CA) scaffolds are paradigmatic examples of monodisperse gene delivery systems. The possibility to precisely control the architectural ...

Effects of inulin and di-d-fructose dianhydride-enriched caramels on intestinal microbiota composition and performance of broiler chickens
(Elsevier, 2013)
In vitro and in vivo experiments were designed to evaluate the effectiveness of laboratory-made di-d-fructose dianhydride (DFA)-enriched caramels. The DFA-enriched caramels were obtained from d-fructose (FC), d-fructose ...

Efficient stereoselective synthesis of 2-acetamido-1,2-dideoxyallonojirimycin (DAJNAc) and sp2-iminosugar conjugates: Novel hexosaminidase inhibitors with discrimination capabilities between the mature and precursor forms of the enzyme
(Elsevier, 2016)
Due to their capacity to inhibit hexosaminidases, 2-acetamido-1,2-dideoxy-iminosugars have been widely studied as potential therapeutic agents for various diseases. An efficient stereoselective synthesis of 2-acetamido-1 ...
