Spacer-mediated synthesis of bis-spiroketal disaccharides: Nonsymmetrical furanose-pyranose difructose dianhydrides
(2007)
The stereochemical outcome of the dimerization reaction of D-fructose, leading to tricyclic bis-spiroketal systems, can be tuned by inserting a xylylene template between the reacting moieties. Spirocyclization becomes then ...

Cyclodextrin-scaffolded amphiphilic aminoglucoside clusters: self-assembling and gene delivery capabilities
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)
Precise control over the architecture of gene carriers is instrumental to manipulate gene delivery efficiency. Combining cationic centers and carbohydrate motifs into monodisperse architectures has been proposed as a ...

Trehalose-based Janus cyclooligosaccharides: the Click synthesis and DNA-directed assembly into pH-sensitive transfectious nanoparticles
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
The convergent preparation of Janus molecular nanoparticles by thiourea-‘‘clicking’’ of a,a0 -trehalose halves has been implemented; the strategy allows access to macrocyclic derivatives with seggregated cationic and ...

Chemical and Enzymatic Approaches to Carbohydrate-Derived Spiroketals: Di-D-Fructose Dianhydrides (DFAs)
(MDPI AG, 2008)
Di-D-fructose dianhydrides (DFAs) comprise a unique family of stereoisomeric spiro-tricyclic disaccharides formed upon thermal and/or acidic activation of sucrose- and/or D-fructose-rich materials. The recent discovery of ...

Pharmacological Chaperones for the Treatment of α-Mannosidosis
(American Chemical Society, 2019)
α-Mannosidosis (AM) results from deficient lysosomal α-mannosidase (LAMAN) activity and subsequent substrate accumulation in the lysosome, leading to severe pathology. Many of the AM-causative mutations compromise enzyme ...

Nanoparticle-delivered HIV peptides to dendritic cells a promising approach to generate a therapeutic vaccine
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020)
Finding a functional cure for HIV-1 infection will markedly decrease the social and economic burden of this disease. In this work, we have taken advantage of the antigen presenting cell role of human dendritic cells (DCs) ...

Carbon Dioxide as a Traceless Caramelization Promotor: Preparation of Prebiotic Difructose Dianhydrides (DFAs)-Enriched Caramels from D-Fructose
(American Chemical Society, 2017)
Activation of a concentrated solution of D-fructose with carbonic acid, generated from carbon dioxide, induces the formation of difructose dianhydrides (DFAs) and their glycosylated derivatives (glycosyl-DFAs), a family ...

Thiol-ene "Click" Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of C-Glycoside sp2-Iminosugar Glycolipids
(MDPI, 2019)
The unique stereoelectronic properties of sp2-iminosugars enable their participation in glycosylation reactions, thereby behaving as true carbohydrate chemical mimics. Among sp2-iminosugar conjugates, the sp2-iminosugar ...

Trehalose-polyamine/DNA nanocomplexes: impact of vector architecture on cell and organ transfection selectivity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2024-03-05)
A novel family of precision-engineered gene vectors with well-defined structures built on trehalose and trehalose-based macrocycles (cyclotrehalans) comprising linear or cyclic polyamine heads have been synthesized through ...
