Carbohydr Res 2023; 534:108942. [PMID: 37769375 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2023.108942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023]
Abstract
Base-promoted (MeONa in MeOH or imidazole in DMF) isomerization of a series of 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-d-gluco- and d-mannopyranose derivatives with triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) substituents was studied. The presence of a bulky TIPS group at O-1 or O-2 was shown to be favorable for the isomerization of benzyl protected d-gluco- and d-mannopyranose derivatives to d-fructofuranose derivatives, in which the bulky silyl group occupies less sterically hindered primary position. The highest yield (33%) of the fructofuranose derivative was achieved when 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-O-triisopropylsilyl-d-mannopyranose was treated with MeONa in MeON at 50 °C.

Abstract
β-Mannosides are ubiquitous in nature, with diverse roles in many biological processes. Notably, Manβ1,4GlcNAc a constituent of the core N-glycan in eukaryotes was recently identified as an immune activator, highlighting its potential for use in immunotherapy. Despite their biological significance, the synthesis of β-mannosidic linkages remains one of the major challenges in glycoscience. Here we present a chemoenzymatic strategy that affords a series of novel unnatural Manβ1,4GlcNAc analogues using the β-1,4-d-mannosyl-N-acetyl-d-glucosamine phosphorylase, BT1033. We show that the presence of fluorine in the GlcNAc acceptor facilitates the formation of longer β-mannan-like glycans. We also pioneer a "reverse thiophosphorylase" enzymatic activity, favouring the synthesis of longer glycans by catalysing the formation of a phosphorolysis-stable thioglycoside linkage, an approach that may be generally applicable to other phosphorylases.

Abstract
Given the lack of timely evaluation of the well-received selenium fortification, a neat lateral-flow chromatographic solution was constructed here by using the recently identified urinary selenosugar (Sel) as a strongly indicative marker. As there are no ready-made receptors for this synthetic standard, phenylboronic acid (PBA) esterification and Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) affinity joined up to pinch and pin down the analyte into a sandwich-type glycol complex. Pilot lectin screening on homemade glycan microarrays verified such a new pairing between dual recognizers as PBA-Sel-DBA with a firm monosaccharide-binding constant. To quell the sample autofluorescence, europium nanoparticles with efficient long-life afterglow were employed as conjugating probes under 1 μs excitation. After systematic process optimizations, the prepared Sel-dipstick achieved swift and sensitive fluorometry over the physiological level of the target from 0.1 to 10 μM with a detection limit down to 0.06 μM. Further efforts were made to eliminate matrix effects from both temperature and pH via an approximate formula. Upon completion, the test strips managed to quantify the presence of Sel in not just imitated but real human urine, with comparable results to those in the references. As far as we know, this would be the first in-house prototype for user-friendly and facile diagnosis of Se nutrition with fair accuracy as well as selectivity. Future endeavors will be invested to model a more traceable Se-supplementary plan based on the rhythmic feedback of Sel excretion.

Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the potential of two classes of thioglucoside analogues of gliflozins as antidiabetic drugs, one with substitutions of S-atoms in meta-positions (similar to C-glucoside SGLT2 inhibitors, TAGs A, B, and C) and the other with substitutions of S-atoms in ortho-positions (similar to O-glucoside SGLT2 inhibitors, TAGs D, E, F, and G). These TAGs were confirmed to show good stability against β-glucosidase and to have no acute toxicity to cultured cells. Most importantly, TAGs D, E, F, and G all showed high inhibitory activity against SGLT2 (IC50: 2.0-5.9 nM) and thus have great potential to be developed as new gliflozin drugs. Compared with the synthesis of C-glucoside gliflozins, the synthesis of TAGs is simple, efficient, and associated with low costs, high yields, and very mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
Reported herein is the development of a novel method for activating thioglycosides without a glycosyl halide intermediate. This has been achieved through the use of a silver salt coupled with an acid additive and molecular iodine. The enhanced stereocontrol was achieved via the H-bond mediated aglycone delivery (HAD) method, and the extended trisaccharide synthesis was achieved via iteration of deprotection and glycosylation steps.

Abstract
Liposomes, a nanoscale drug delivery system, are well known for their ability to improve pharmacokinetics and reduce drug toxicity. In this work, maltoheptaose (G7)-presenting glycoliposomes were synthesized and evaluated in the delivery of the antibiotic rifampicin. Two types of liposomes were prepared: nonfluid liposomes from l-α-phosphatidylcholine (PC) and cholesterol, and fluid liposomes from 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'-rac-glycerol). G7-derivatized glycolipid, G7-DPPE (DPPE: 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine), was incorporated into the liposomes at 21 and 14 μmol/mg to form nanoparticles of 75 ± 12 and 146 ± 14 nm for the nonfluid and fluid G7-glycoliposomes, respectively. The multivalent G7-glycoliposomes were characterized by lectin binding with concanavalin A (Con A). The dissociation constant K d between Con A and the nonfluid or fluid G7-glycoliposomes was 0.93 or 0.51 μM, which represented ~900- or 1600-fold stronger affinity than the binding between Con A and G7. The G7-glycoliposomes were loaded with rifampicin at 6.6 and 16 wt % encapsulation for the nonfluid and fluid G7-glycoliposomes, respectively. Introducing a carbohydrate in the liposomes slowed down the release of rifampicin, with the G7-glycoliposomes having the slowest release rate and the lowest permeability coefficient among the liposome formulations. The fluid G7-glycoliposomes lowered the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of rifampicin against E. coli ORN208 by about 3 times, whereas liposomes without G7 or Man (d-mannose)-glycoliposomes showed no improvement in MIC. The rifampicin-loaded fluid G7-glycoliposomes demonstrated the best sustained antibacterial activity against E. coli, with up to 2 log reduction in the colony forming units at 4 × MIC after 24 h. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer and confocal fluorescence microscopy revealed stronger interactions of the bacterium with the fluid G7-glycoliposomes than other liposome formulations.

Abstract
Oligomannose glycans are of interest as HIV vaccine components, but they are subject to mannosidase degradation in vivo. Herein, we report the synthesis of oligosaccharides containing a thio linkage at the nonreducing end. A thio-linked dimannose donor participates in highly stereoselective glycosylations to afford trimannose and tetramannose fragments. Saturation transfer difference nuclear magnetic resonance (STD NMR) studies show that these glycans are recognized by HIV antibody 2G12, and we confirm that the reducing terminal S-linkage confers complete stability against x. manihotis mannosidase.

Abstract
Thioglycosides are more resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis than their O-linked counterparts, thereby becoming attractive targets for carbohydrate-based therapeutic development. We report the first development of methods for the site-selective incorporation of S-linkages into automated solution-phase oligosaccharide protocols. The protocols were shown to be compatible with the formation of S- or O-glycosides for the synthesis of mannopyranoside trimmers that incorporate both S- and O-linkages to allow the selective incorporation of an S-glycoside in various stages in an automated program.

Abstract
Complex mixtures were often observed when we attempted to synthesize 4-thio- and 2,4-dithio-glycoside derivatives by double parallel and double serial inversion, thus leading to no or low yields of target products. The reason was later found to be that many unexpected side products were produced when a nucleophile substituted the leaving group on the substrate containing the thioacetate group. We hypothesized that thioacetyl migration is prone to occur due to the labile thioacetate group even under weak basic conditions caused by the nucleophile, leading to this result. Therefore, we managed to inhibit the generation of thiol groups from thioacetate groups by the addition of an appropriate amount of conjugate acid/anhydride, successfully improving the synthesis of 4-thio- and 2,4-dithio-glycoside derivatives. The target products which were previously difficult to synthesize, were herein obtained in relatively high yields. Finally, 4-deoxy- and 2,4-dideoxy-glycoside derivatives were efficiently synthesized through the removal of thioacetate groups under UV light, starting from 4-thio- and 2,4-dithio-glycoside derivatives.

Abstract
The synthesis of the invariant natural killer (iNK) T cell agonist β-mannosylceramide along with a series of fatty amide analogues is reported. Of the six β-glycosylation protocols investigated, the sulfoxide methodology developed by Crich and co-workers proved to be the most effective where the reaction of a mannosyl sulfoxide and phytosphingosine derivative gave a key glycolipid intermediate as a 95 : 5 mixture of β- to α-anomers in high yield. A series of mannosyl ceramides were evaluated for their ability to activate D32.D3 NKT cells and induce antitumour activity.

Wounded skin is one of the preferred niches for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which has developed diverse strategies to impair tissue repair processes and promote infection. Here, we analyse the effect of the P. aeruginosa fucose-binding lectin LecB on human keratinocytes and demonstrate that it triggers events in the host, upon binding to fucosylated residues on cell membrane receptors, which extend beyond its role as an adhesion molecule. We found that LecB associates with insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor and dampens its signalling, leading to the arrest of cell cycle. In addition, we describe a novel LecB-triggered mechanism to down-regulate host cell receptors by showing that LecB leads to insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor internalisation and subsequent missorting towards intracellular endosomal compartments, without receptor activation. Overall, these data highlight that LecB is a multitask virulence factor that, through subversion of several host pathways, has a profound impact on keratinocyte proliferation and survival.
