sp2-Iminosugars targeting human lysosomal β-hexosaminidase as pharmacological chaperone candidates for late-onset Tay-Sachs disease
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
The late-onset form of Tay-Sachs disease displays when the activity levels of human β-hexosaminidase A (HexA) fall below 10% of normal, due to mutations that destabilise the native folded form of the enzyme and impair its ...

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 ...

Cyclodextrin-Based Functional Glyconanomaterials
(MDPI, 2020-12)
Cyclodextrins (CDs) have long occupied a prominent position in most pharmaceutical laboratories as “off-the-shelve” tools to manipulate the pharmacokinetics of a broad range of active principles, due to their unique ...

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 ...

Self-association of a naphthalene-capped-β-cyclodextrin through cooperative strong hydrophobic interactions
(Elsevier, 2011-09-05)
NMR, circular dichroism and fluorescence techniques were used to study the structure in solution of a new β-cyclodextrin derivate in which naphthalene chromophore group is bridged to O(2) and O(3) secondary positions of ...

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 ...

Enhanced Gene Delivery Triggered by Dual pH/Redox Responsive Host-Guest Dimerization of Cyclooligosaccharide Star Polycations
(Wiley, 2022)
A robust strategy is reported to build perfectly monodisperse star polycationscombining a trehalose-based cyclooligosaccharide (cyclotrehalan, CT) centralcore onto which oligoethyleneimine radial arms are installed. ...
