Abstract
Glycosidases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic linkages in oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. These enzymes play a vital role in a wide variety of biological events, such as digestion of nutritional carbohydrates, lysosomal catabolism of glycoconjugates, and posttranslational modifications of glycoproteins. Abnormal glycosidase activities are associated with a variety of diseases, particularly cancer and lysosomal storage disorders. Owing to the physiological and pathological significance of glycosidases, the development of small molecules that target these enzymes is an active area in glycoscience and medicinal chemistry. Research efforts carried out thus far have led to the discovery of numerous glycosidase-targeting small molecules that have been utilized to elucidate biological processes as well as to develop effective chemotherapeutic agents. In this review, we describe the results of research studies reported since 2018, giving particular emphasis to the use of fluorescent probes for detection and imaging of glycosidases, activity-based probes for covalent labelling of these enzymes, glycosidase inhibitors, and glycosidase-activatable prodrugs.

Abstract
AbstractThe efficient synthesis of enantiomeric pairs of iminosugars including 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-arabinitol (DAB) and 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-l-arabinitol (LAB) analogues with an amidine, hydrazide, hydrazide imide, or amide oxime moiety is described. The preparation of DAB and LAB analogues commenced from l-xylose and d-xylose, respectively. The obtained iminosugars are tested against a panel of glycosidases with pharmaceutical relevance, revealing enhanced activity for the DAB analogues in comparison with the LAB analogues. In particular, the d-arabino-configured amidine behaved as a potent (submicromolar range) and selective inhibitor of α-mannosidase.

Abstract
Glycosidases, the enzymes responsible for the breakdown of glycoconjugates including di-, oligo- and polysaccharides are ubiquitous through all kingdoms of life. The extreme chemical stability of the glycosidic bond combined with the catalytic rates achieved by glycosidases makes them among the most proficient of all enzymes.
Given their multitude of roles in vivo, inhibition of these enzymes is highly attractive with potential in the treatment of a vast array of pathologies ranging from lysosomal storage and diabetes to viral infections. Therefore great efforts have been invested in the last three decades to design and synthesize inhibitors of glycosidases leading to a number of drugs currently on the market. Amongst the vast array of structures that have been disclosed, sugars incorporating an amidine moiety have been the focus of many research groups around the world because of their glycosidase transition state-like structure. In this review we report and discuss the structure, the inhibition profile and the use of these molecules including related structural congeners as transition state analogs.

Abstract
The de novo synthesis of piperidine nucleosides from our homologating agent 5,6-dihydro-1,4-dithiin is herein reported. The structure and conformation of nucleosides were conceived to faithfully resemble the well-known nucleoside drugs Immucillins H and A in their bioactive conformation. NMR analysis of the synthesized compounds confirmed that they adopt an iminosugar conformation bearing the nucleobases and the hydroxyl groups in the appropriate orientation.

Abstract
Synthesis of four iminosugars fused to a cyclopropane ring is described using l-serine as the chiral pool. The key steps are large-scale preparation of an α,β-unsaturated piperidinone followed by completely stereoselective sulfur ylide cyclopropanation. Stereochemistry of compounds has been studied by nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) experiments and 1H homonuclear decoupling to measure constant couplings. The activity of these compounds against different glycosidases has been evaluated. Although inhibition activity was low (compound 8a presents a (K i) of 1.18 mM against β-galactosidase from Escherichia coli), interestingly, we found that compounds 8a and 8b increase the activity of neuraminidase from Vibrio cholerae up to 100%.
