Journal ArticleDOI

Carrageenans: biological properties, chemical modifications and structural analysis - a review.

TL;DR: This review describes important aspects of carrageenans related to their industrial/therapeutic applications, physicochemical properties and structural analysis and indicates that these polysaccharides may offer some protection against HIV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

α- and β-Glucosidase inhibitors: chemical structure and biological activity

TL;DR: This review is aimed at highlighting the main chemical classes of glucosidase inhibitors, as well as their biological activities toward α- and β-glucosidases, but it is not intended to be an exhaustive review on the subject.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diketopiperazines : biological activity and synthesis

TL;DR: The biological properties of disubstituted 2,5-diketopiperazines and the corresponding synthetic procedures that allow the generation of large arrays of derivatives with interesting biological applications are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of copper(I)-catalysed azide/alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) ‘click chemistry’ in carbohydrate drug and neoglycopolymer synthesis

TL;DR: An overview of the potential application of copper(I)-catalysed azide/alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) ‘click chemistry’ in the synthesis of bioactive carbohydrates and neoglycopolymers is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

'Click chemistry' synthesis of a library of 1,2,3-triazole-substituted galactose derivatives and their evaluation against Trypanosoma cruzi and its cell surface trans-sialidase.

TL;DR: In vitro trypanocidal activity assays against the trypomastigote form of T. cruzi Y strain revealed several compounds active in the low 100s of muM range, which suggests a specific mode of anti-parasite action rather than a generic cytotoxic effect.
