Abstract
The colonization of some bacteria to their host cell is mediated by selective adhesion between adhesin and glycan. The evaluation of antiadhesive carbohydrates in vitro has great significance in discovering new antibacterial drugs. In this paper, a microfluidic chip integrated with impedimetric neoglycoprotein biosensors was developed to evaluate the antibacterial effect of carbohydrates. Mannosylated bovine serum albumin (Man-BSA) was taken as the neoglycoprotein and immobilized on the microelectrode-modified gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) to form a bionic glycoprotein nanosensing surface (Man-BSA/Au NPs). Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) was selected as a bacteria model owing to its selective adhesion to the mannose. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to characterize the adhesion capacity of S. typhimurium to the Man-BSA/Au NPs and evaluate the antiadhesive efficacy of nine different carbohydrates. It was illustrated that the 4-methoxyphenyl-α-D-pyran mannoside (Phenyl-Man) and mannan peptide (Mannatide) showed excellent antiadhesive efficacy, with IC50 values of 0.086 mM and 0.094 mM, respectively. The microfluidic device developed in this study can be tested in multiple channels. Compared with traditional methods for evaluating the antibacterial drug in vitro, it has the advantages of being fast, convenient, and cost-effective.

Abstract
Here, we demonstrate the concerted inhibition of different influenza A virus (IAV) strains using a low-molecular-weight dual-action linear polymer. The 6'-sialyllactose and zanamivir conjugates of linear polyglycerol are optimized for simultaneous targeting of hemagglutinin and neuraminidase on the IAV surface. Independent of IAV subtypes, hemagglutination inhibition data suggest better adsorption of the heteromultivalent polymer than homomultivalent analogs onto the virus surface. Cryo-TEM images imply heteromultivalent compound-mediated virus aggregation. The optimized polymeric nanomaterial inhibits >99.9% propagation of various IAV strains 24 h postinfection in vitro at low nM concentrations and is up to 10000× more effective than the commercial zanamivir drug. In a human lung ex vivo multicyclic infection setup, the heteromultivalent polymer outperforms the commercial drug zanamivir and homomultivalent analogs or their physical mixtures. This study authenticates the translational potential of the dual-action targeting approach using small polymers for broad and high antiviral efficacy.

Abstract
Pathogens including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites continue to shape our lives in profound ways every day. As we have learned to live in parallel with pathogens, we have gained a better understanding of the rules of engagement for how they bind, adhere, and invade host cells. One such mechanism involves the exploitation of host cell surface glycans for attachment/adhesion, one of the first steps of infection. This knowledge has led to the development of glycan-based diagnostics and therapeutics for the treatment and prevention of infection. One class of compounds that has become increasingly important are the glycopolymers. Glycopolymers are macromolecules composed of a synthetic scaffold presenting carbohydrates as side chain motifs. Glycopolymers are particularly attractive because their properties can be tuned by careful choice of the scaffold, carbohydrate/glycan, and overall presentation. In this review, we highlight studies over the past ten years that have examined the role of glycopolymers in pathogen adhesion and host cell infection, biofilm formation and removal, and drug delivery with the aim of examining the direct effects of these macromolecules on pathogen engagement. In addition, we also examine the role of glycopolymers as diagnostics for the detection and monitoring of pathogens.

Abstract
Glycan-based electrochemical biosensors are emerging as analytical tools for determining multiple molecular targets relevant to diagnosing infectious diseases and detecting cancer biomarkers. These biosensors allow for the detection of target analytes at ultra-low concentrations, which is mandatory for early disease diagnosis. Nanostructure-decorated platforms have been demonstrated to enhance the analytical performance of electrochemical biosensors. In addition, glycans anchored to electrode platforms as bioreceptors exhibit high specificity toward biomarker detection. Both attributes offer a synergy that allows ultrasensitive detection of molecular targets of clinical interest. In this context, we review recent advances in electrochemical glycobiosensors for detecting infectious diseases and cancer biomarkers focused on colorectal cancer. We also describe general aspects of structural glycobiology, definitions, and classification of electrochemical biosensors and discuss relevant works on electrochemical glycobiosensors in the last ten years. Finally, we summarize the advances in electrochemical glycobiosensors and comment on some challenges and limitations needed to advance toward real clinical applications of these devices.

Abstract
The clinical management of bladder cancer (BCa) is hindered by the lack of reliable biomarkers. We aimed to investigate the potential of lamprey immunity protein (LIP), a lectin that specifically binds to multi-antennary sialylated N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) structures on UMOD glycoproteins in the urine of BCa patients. Primary BCa patients had higher levels of LIP-bound Neu5Gc in urine than healthy participants and patients receiving postoperative treatment did. In addition, lectin chip assay and mass spectrometry were used to analyze the glycan chain structure, which can recognize the UMOD glycoprotein decorated with multi-antennary sialylated Neu5Gc structures. Furthermore, compared with urine samples from healthy patients (N = 2821, T/C = 0.12 ± 0.09) or benign patients (N = 360, T/C = 0.11 ± 0.08), the range of the urine T/C ratio detected using LIP test paper was 1.97 ± 0.32 in patients with bladder cancer (N = 518) with significant difference (P < 0.0001). Our results indicate that LIP may be a tool for early BCa identification, diagnosis, and monitoring. Neu5Gc-modified UMOD glycoproteins in urine and Neu5Gc-modified N-glycochains and sialyltransferases may function as potential markers in clinical trials.

Abstract
Double-hydrophilic diblock copolymers, PMPC100-block-PGEMAn (M100Gn), were synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer radical polymerization using glycosyloxyethyl methacrylate and 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl phosphorylcholine. The degree of polymerization (DP) of the poly(2-(methacryloyloxy) ethylphosphorylcholine) (PMPC) block was 100, whereas the DPs (n) of the poly(glycosyloxyethyl methacrylate) PGEMA block were 18, 48, and 90. Water-soluble complexes of C70/M100Gn and fullerene (C70) were prepared by grinding M100Gn and C70 powders in a mortar and adding phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution. PMPC can form a water-soluble complex with hydrophobic C70 using the same method. Therefore, the C70/M100Gn complexes have a core-shell micelle-like particle structure possessing a C70/PMPC core and PGEMA shells. The maximum amounts of solubilization of C70 in PBS solutions using 2 g/L each of M100G18, M100G48, and M100G90 were 0.518, 0.358, and 0.257 g/L, respectively. The hydrodynamic radius (Rh) of C70/M100Gn in PBS solutions was 55-75 nm. Spherical aggregates with a similar size to the Rh were observed by transmission electron microscopy. When the C70/M100Gn PBS solutions were irradiated with visible light, singlet oxygen was generated from C70 in the core. It is expected that the C70/M100Gn complexes can be applied to photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy treatments.

Abstract
Organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) have gained recent interest and rapid development due to their versatility in diverse applications ranging from sensing, actuation and computation to energy harvesting/storage, and information transfer. Their multifunctional properties arise from their ability to simultaneously participate in redox reactions as well as modulation of ionic and electronic charge density throughout the bulk of the material. Most importantly, the ability to access charge states with deep modulation through a large extent of its density of states and physical volume of the material enables OMIEC-based devices to display exciting new characteristics and opens up new degrees of freedom in device design. Leveraging the infinite possibilities of the organic synthetic toolbox, this perspective highlights several chemical and structural design approaches to modify OMIECs' properties important in device applications such as electronic and ionic conductivity, color, modulus, etc. Additionally, the ability for OMIECs to respond to external stimuli and transduce signals to myriad types of outputs has accelerated their development in smart systems. This perspective further illustrates how various stimuli such as electrical, chemical, and optical inputs fundamentally change OMIECs' properties dynamically and how these changes can be utilized in device applications.

Abstract
Waterborne diarrheal diseases such as travelers' diarrhea and cholera remain a threat to public health in many countries. Rapid diagnosis of an infectious disease is critical in preventing the escalation of a disease outbreak into an epidemic. Many of the diagnostic tools for infectious diseases employed today are time-consuming and require specialized laboratory settings and trained personnel. There is hence a pressing need for fit-for-purpose point-of-care diagnostic tools with emphasis in sensitivity, specificity, portability, and low cost. We report work toward thermally reversible biosensors for detection of the carbohydrate-binding domain of the Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LTB), a toxin produced by enterotoxigenic E. coli strains, which causes travelers' diarrhea. The biosensing platform is a hybrid of two materials, combining the optical properties of porous silicon (pSi) interferometric transducers and a thermoresponsive multivalent glycopolymer, to enable recognition of LTB. Analytical performance of our biosensors allows us to detect, using a label-free format, sub-micromolar concentrations of LTB in solution as low as 0.135 μM. Furthermore, our platform shows a temperature-mediated "catch-and-release" behavior, an exciting feature with potential for selective protein capture, multiple readouts, and regeneration of the sensor over consecutive cycles of use.

Abstract
Fast and efficient identification of bacterial pathogens in water and biological fluids is an important issue in medical, food safety, and public health concerns that requires low-cost and efficient sensing strategies. Impedimetric sensors are promising tools for monitoring bacteria detection because of their reliability and ease-of-use. We herein report a study on new biointerface-based amphiphilic poly(3-hexylthiophene)-b-poly(3-triethylene-glycol-thiophene), P3HT-b-P3TEGT, for label-free impedimetric detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli). This biointerface is fabricated by the self-assembly of P3HT-b-P3TEGT into core-shell nanoparticles, which was further decorated with mannose, leading to an easy-to-use solution-processable nanoparticle material for biosensing. The hydrophilic block P3TEGT promotes antifouling and prevents nonspecific interactions, while improving the ionic and electronic transport properties, thus enhancing the electrochemical-sensing capability in aqueous solution. Self-assembly and micelle formation of P3HT-b-P3TEGT were analyzed by 2D-NMR, Fourier transform infrared, dynamic light scattering, contact angle, and microscopy characterizations. Detection of E. coli was characterized and evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and optical and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The sensing layer based on the mannose-functionalized P3HT-b-P3TEGT nanoparticles demonstrates targeting ability toward E. coli pili protein with a detection range from 103 to 107 cfu/mL, and its selectivity was studied with Gram(+) bacteria. Application to real samples was performed by detection of bacteria in tap and the Nile water. The approach developed here shows that water/alcohol-processable-functionalized conjugated polymer nanoparticles are suitable for use as electrode materials, which have potential application in fabrication of a low-cost, label-free impedimetric biosensor for the detection of bacteria in water.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been reported to be an effective alternative to combat bacterial infections even those triggered by drug-resistant strains as there is little chance to develop resistance to this therapy. Therefore, it is imperative to design and synthesize a superior photo-active bactericide for the treatment of bacterial infections. Herein, we synthesized three bactericidal activity-tunable conjugated polymers (P1-P3) with various photoactive capabilities and employed them for the treatment of wound infections with little damage to cells; by altering the construction unit of π-conjugated backbone structures with electron-rich and electron-deficient aromatic heterocycles, the optical properties and ability of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation could be regulated; this resulted in a tunable killing ability. The cationic quaternary ammonium (QA) groups on the side chains endowed the CPs with not only good dispersibility but also a better interaction with the negatively charged membrane of bacteria. The antibacterial experiments towards ampicillin-resistant Escherichia coli TOP10 (E. coli) and the treatment of wound infections in mice indicate that the P1-P3 have varied bactericidal activities; moreover, P3 has been demonstrated to be a human-friendly bactericide with excellent antibacterial capability. It not only acts as a potential bactericide for the practical treatment of infectious wounds, but also offers guidance for the design and structure control of photo-active bactericides.

Abstract
Glycopolymers have emerged as powerful and versatile glycan analogues for the investigation of cellular signal transduction. In this study, a layer of the glycopolymer-brush (GlyB) interface was functionalized on the surface of gold substrates. In order to enhance the capability and accessibility of this transducer interface, a combined protocol of copper(0)-mediated living radical polymerization (Cu(0)-LRP) with subsequent "CuAAC" click reaction was utilized to synthesize a set of novel glycopolymer precursors with a tunable scaffold structure and pyranose ligands. The resulting glycopolymer exhibited a fine-tuned molecular weight with a minor dispersity of 1.27. Through surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis, various GlyB interfaces exhibiting different saccharide moieties (glucose, mannose, and galactose) were examined to study their adhesion or antiadhesion potential toward three types of proteins, concanavalin A, bovine serum albumin, and peanut agglutinin (PNA). The strong affinity between poly(galactose) and PNA was further employed to construct a proof-of-concept aggregation-mediated sensing system. This minimal naked-eye sensor that consisted of only two substances, namely, gold nanoparticles and glycopolymers, was characterized and tested for its potential in protein quantification.

Abstract
Considering inherence optical properties of adjoint polyfluorenes and special functions of water-soluble conjugated glycopolymers, a triazole chain glycoconjugate via one-pot method were rapidly synthesized to prepare a lactate ligand polyfluorene with a clear fluorescent label by a nickel-catalyzed Yamamoto coupling polymerization. The water solubility and biocompatibility of the glycoconjugated polymer were ameliorated when the lactose group introduced as the side chain of the conjugated polymer. As a fluorescent multivalent system of glycoconjugates containing pyranogalactose groups, the interaction between pyranogalactose group and cholera toxin B subunit was studied by fluorescence spectrophotometric titration. PF-Lac has a broad application prospect in the check of cholera toxin and the study of glycoprotein interaction.

Abstract
In this report, we present double-hydrophilic block glycopolymers of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)- b-poly(2-(β-glucosyloxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA- b-PGEMA) and amphiphilic block glycopolymers of poly(ethyl methacrylate)- b-PGEMA (PEMA- b-PGEMA) synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The block glycopolymers were prepared in two compositions of P(H)EMA macro-chain transfer agents (CTAs) and similar molecular weights of PGEMA. Structural analysis of the resulting polymers as well as the conversion of (H)EMA and GEMA monomers were determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Size exclusion chromatography measurements confirmed both P(H)EMA macro-CTAs and block glycopolymers had a low dispersity ( Đ ≤ 1.5). The synthesized block glycopolymers had a degree of polymerization and a molecular weight up to 222 and 45.3 kg mol-1, respectively. Both block glycopolymers self-assembled into micellar structures in aqueous solutions as characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering experiments.

Direct immobilization of sugar probes on bovine serum albumin-coated gold substrate for the development of glycan biosensors. Biointerphases 2019; 14:011003.

Abstract
Glycan biosensors based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy have attracted a great deal of interest due to their potential applications in numerous biological and biomedical fields. Controlled immobilization of sugar probes on a gold substrate is believed to be critical for the performance of these SPR biosensors. In this regard, herein the authors report a direct coupling of mannose probes with bovine serum albumin (BSA) layer on the gold substrate via a squaric acid-mediated reaction under mild conditions, in which the BSA layer provides not only reactive amine groups but also a nonfouling surface property. SPR measurements show that the resultant biosensor with an appropriate amount of mannose probes exhibits high affinity to its corresponding lectin (i.e., concanavalin A) and at the same time could resist nonspecific adsorption of other lectins. The limit of detection of the current SPR biosensor is 1.9 nM. Thus, the squaric acid-mediated immobilization strategy appears to be effective and useful for the fabrication of bioanalytical devices.

Abstract
This work reports the design, synthesis, and characterization of a novel redox-active conjugated polyaniline containing quinone moiety as a solid state reference electrode. The union of electro-active quinone with π-conjugated polyaniline was created by the first chemical synthesis of para-dimethoxybenzene-functionalized aniline as a monomer using a palladium-mediated coupling. The successful polymerization of the as-prepared monomer was accomplished without acid additives. Its post-polymerization modification with strong Lewis acid boron tribromide furnished unique poly (aniline quinone/hydroquinone) with desired properties for all-solid-state reference electrode (RE) applications. The electrochemical responses from the conjugated polyaniline backbone in this unique polymer have been “suppressed” by the quinone pendant. The resulting poly (aniline quinone) showed a quasi-reversible redox process from the redox behavior of the pendant quinone. The stable electrode potential of this poly (aniline quinone/hydroquinone) suggested that it was a single phase in which the amounts of totally reduced and totally oxidized species could be maintained at a constant in various solvents and electrolytes. Its electrochemical stability was excellent with 95% peak current retention after continuous cyclic voltammetric testing. The aniline and quinone moieties in poly (aniline quinone/hydroquinone) render it to have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compatibility. It showed excellent behavior as a reference electrode in aqueous and non-aqueous media and can be used in both non-zero current and zero-current conditions, providing a stable potential with a maximum potential drift of ~4.7 mV over ten consecutive days.

Glycans and glycosaminoglycans in neurobiology: key regulators of neuronal cell function and fate. Biochem J 2018; 475:2511-2545.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to examine the roles of l-fucose and the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) with selected functional molecules in neural tissues. Cell surface glycans and GAGs have evolved over millions of years to become cellular mediators which regulate fundamental aspects of cellular survival. The glycocalyx, which surrounds all cells, actuates responses to growth factors, cytokines and morphogens at the cellular boundary, silencing or activating downstream signaling pathways and gene expression. In this review, we have focused on interactions mediated by l-fucose, KS and CS/DS in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Fucose makes critical contributions in the area of molecular recognition and information transfer in the blood group substances, cytotoxic immunoglobulins, cell fate-mediated Notch-1 interactions, regulation of selectin-mediated neutrophil extravasation in innate immunity and CD-34-mediated new blood vessel development, and the targeting of neuroprogenitor cells to damaged neural tissue. Fucosylated glycoproteins regulate delivery of synaptic neurotransmitters and neural function. Neural KS proteoglycans (PGs) were examined in terms of cellular regulation and their interactive properties with neuroregulatory molecules. The paradoxical properties of CS/DS isomers decorating matrix and transmembrane PGs and the positive and negative regulatory cues they provide to neurons are also discussed.

Abstract
In this study, a series of diblock glycopolymers, poly(6-O-methacryloyl-d-galactopyranose)-b-poly(6-cholesteryloxyhexyl methacrylate) (PMAgala-b-PMAChols), with cholesterol/galactose grafts were prepared through a sequential reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and deprotection process. The glycopolymers could self-assemble into aggregates with various morphologies depending on cholesterol/galactose-containing block weight ratios, as determined by transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) and dynamic laser light scattering (DLS). In addition, the lectin (Ricinus communis agglutinin II, RCA120) recognition and bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption of the PMAgala-b-PMAChol aggregates were evaluated. The SK-Hep-1 tumor cell inhibition properties of the PMAgala-b-PMAChol/doxorubicin (DOX) complex aggregates were further examined in vitro. Results indicate that the PMAgala-b-PMAChol aggregates with various morphologies showed different interaction/recognition features with RCA120 and BSA. Spherical aggregates (d ≈ 92 nm) possessed the highest RCA120 recognition ability and lowest BSA protein adsorption. In addition, the DOX-loaded spherical complex aggregates exhibited a better tumor cell inhibition property than those of nanofibrous complex aggregates. The morphology-variable aggregates derived from the amphiphilic glycopolymers may serve as multifunctional biomaterials with biomolecular recognition and drug delivery features.

Abstract
In order to understanding the pathogenic mechanism of infectious diseases, it was important to study the selective recognition and interaction between pathogenic bacteria and host cells. In this paper, a novel electrochemical impedance biosensor was proposed, in which the Man/MUA-MH/Au sensing surface (Man: mannose; MUA: 11-mercapto eleven acid; MH: 6-mercapto hexanol) was fabricated and was of good biologically active and stability. The capture capacity of the designed sensing surface for S. typhimurium ATCC14028, E. coli JM109 and E. coli DH5α were characterized by Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). According to Randless equivalent circuit and the Frumkin isotherm model, electron transfer impedance (Ret) was obtained and the binding affinity of the three bacteria and Man was calculated. It was shown that the sensing surface had a better binding affinity for S. typhimurium ATCC14028 with KADS(S.T.) = 2.16 × 106 CFU/mL. The impedance normalized value NIC (S.T.-Man) was of a good linear relationship with the logarithm of bacterial concentration (R2 = 0.96) in the range of 50-1000 CFU/mL. The detection limit was 50 CFU/mL. Meanwhile, the E. coli JM109 which expresses type 1 fimbriae was also adsorbed on the designed sensing surface with KADS(JM109) = 5.84 × 103 CFU/mL. It was illustrated that the novel electrochemical impedance biosensor could be more rapid and reliable for studying interactions between pathogen and glycan, and it was also perspective for a new point-of-care diagnostic tool for evaluating the pathogenicity bacteria.

Abstract
It has been demonstrated in this study that the substituents on the monomer aniline benzene ring are able to introduce the significant differences to the resulting polyaniline's collective properties. We systematically evaluated the structural perturbation effects of two substituents (methyl and methoxy) of aniline monomer through the electrochemical method. Our results showed that the methoxy group induces the less structural perturbation than the methyl counterpart, because of its partial double bond restriction. The morphologies are different for the polyaniline and the ring-substituted polyanilines, in which substituted polyanilines feature the larger porosities with the addition of these side groups. The influential effects of the methoxy side group have been further illustrated and amplified by its superior sensing performance towards the environmentally-significant sulfur dioxide gas, evaluated through the construction of the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM)-based gas sensor with these polyaniline materials. The as-constructed gas sensor's sensitivity, selectivity and stability in terms of its SO2 responses have been evaluated in details. The methoxy-substituted polyaniline was tested to show the unique gas sensing properties for the sulfur dioxide at the low concentrations (50-250 ppm) and function as the adsorbing material at the high concentrations (500-1250 ppm). Thus it can be used both as sensing material as well as a novel filter and/or storage reservoir for the removal of sulfur dioxide pollutant from the environments.

Abstract
AbstractAminophenylboronic acid (ABA) modified bovine serum albumin (BSA) was prepared as neolectin and its interactions with oligosaccharides and glycopolymer were studied by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The conjugation between the primary amine group of the ABA molecule and lysine residues on BSA was performed with an adipate-based strategy to afford the synthetic neoprotein. The number of ABA molecules loaded to BSA surface was determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization – time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. In the BSA-ABA and sugar interaction study, no signal was observed for both the SPR and ITC sensor platform using monosaccharides as the analyte, indicating a weak binding affnity, while the galactose modified polymer showed an enhanced response. The binding affinities of the galactosyl-polymer to BSA-ABA from SPR and ITC data were in the micromolar range.
