Abstract
OBJECTIVE Danaparoid sodium is a biopolymeric complex drug composed of the most abundant heparan sulfate (HS) followed in descending order by dermatan sulfate (DS) and chondroitin sulfate (CS). This composite nature explains its peculiar antithrombotic and anticoagulant properties and make it particularly advantageous when the risk of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia occurs. A specific control of the danaparoid composition is required by the Ph. Eur. The monograph includes the CS and DS limit contents and describes the method for their quantification through selective enzymatic degradations. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, a quantitative two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method is proposed as a new method suitable for CS and DS quantification. Statistical comparison of the results provided by the analysis of a series of danaparoid samples with both NMR and enzymatic methods highlights a small systematic difference, likely derived from lyase-resistant sequences bearing oxidized terminals. Some modified structures, whose survival to the enzymatic action was confirmed by mass spectrometry, can be detected and quantified by NMR. CONCLUSION AND RESULTS The proposed NMR method can serve for the determination of DS and CS contents, is an easy-to-apply method with no dependence from enzymes and standards, and provides extensive structural information on the overall glycosaminoglycans mixture.

Abstract
Danaparoid sodium salt, is the active component of ORGARAN, an anticoagulant and antithrombotic drug constituted of three glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) obtained from porcine intestinal mucosa extracts. Heparan sulfate is the major component, dermatan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate being the minor ones. Currently dermatan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate are quantified by UV detection of their unsaturated disaccharides obtained by enzymatic depolymerization. Due to the complexity of danaparoid biopolymers and the presence of shared components, an orthogonal approach has been applied using more advanced tools and methods. To integrate the analytical profile, 2D heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) NMR spectroscopy was applied and found effective to identify and quantify GAG component signals as well as those of some process signatures of danaparoid active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) batches. Analyses of components of both API samples and size separated fractions proceeded through the determination and distribution of the molecular weight (Mw) by high performance size exclusion chromatographic triple detector array (HP-SEC-TDA), chain mapping by LC/MS, and mono- (1H and 13C) and bi-dimensional (HSQC) NMR spectroscopy. Finally, large scale chromatographic isolation and depolymerization of each GAG followed by LC/MS and 2D-NMR analysis, allowed the sequences to be defined and components to be evaluated of each GAG including oxidized residues of hexosamines and uronic acids at the reducing ends.

Abstract
Carbohydrate modification is a common phenomenon in nature. Many carbohydrate modifications such as some epimerization, O-acetylation, O-sulfation, O-methylation, N-deacetylation, and N-sulfation, take place after the formation of oligosaccharide or polysaccharide backbones. These modifications can be categorized as carbohydrate post-glycosylational modifications (PGMs). Carbohydrate PGMs further extend the complexity of the structures and the synthesis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. They also increase the capacity of the biological regulation that is achieved by finely tuning the structures of carbohydrates. Developing efficient methods to obtain structurally defined naturally occurring oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and glycoconjugates with carbohydrate PGMs is essential for understanding the biological significance of carbohydrate PGMs. Combined with high-throughput screening methods, synthetic carbohydrates with PGMs are invaluable probes in structure-activity relationship studies. We illustrate here several classes of carbohydrates with PGMs and their applications. Recent progress in chemical, enzymatic, and chemoenzymatic syntheses of these carbohydrates and their derivatives are also presented.

Abstract
In the search for new strategies against HIV-1 and on the basis of a number of previous studies reporting on the capacity of certain polyanionic compounds to influence the replication of HIV-1, we prepared a few chemically oversulfated dermatan and chondroitin sulfates. Four of these compounds and two samples of heparin were bound to activated Sepharose through either their carboxylic groups, or their aldehydic groups, or their deacetylated primary amino groups. Some of these so-derivatised resins, packed into columns, proved able to remove HIV-1 IIIB, a laboratory adapted strain, and one clinical primary isolate from an AIDS patient, from infected cell culture medium. The resins bind the virus very tightly and could be useful for capturing the virus from infected fluids.

Abstract
The syntheses of sodium (sodium 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4-O-sulfonato-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-(sodium 2-O-sulfonato-L-idopyran)uronate, a disaccharide fragment of dermatan sulfate, and of its methyl alpha-L-glycoside derivative are reported for the first time. The use of 4-O-acetyl-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido-1-O-trichloroacetimidoyl-alpha-D-galactopyranose, readily prepared from a D-gluco precursor, allowed the stereocontrolled and high yielding coupling with the low reactive 4-hydroxyl group of L-iduronic acid ester derivatives. Classical transformation of the disaccharide products into the target molecules was achieved in high yield.

Abstract
A series of chemically oversulphated galactosaminoglycans (SO3H:COOH ratio > or = 2) were tested in vitro as antiviral agents against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the aetiological agent of AIDS, and against herpes simplex virus type 1 and human cytomegalovirus, two agents responsible for opportunistic infections in HIV-infected people. The oversulphated derivatives displayed an increase in activity ranging from one to four orders of magnitude against the three viruses, as compared to the natural parent compounds (SO3H:COOH, ratio approx. 1). The antiviral activity of these polyanions appears to be favoured by a high degree of sulphation and a high molecular mass. An oversulphated dermatan, with a SO3H:COOH ratio of 2.86 and molecular mass of 23.2 kDa, was the most potent anti-HIV-1 compound (EC50 0.04 microgram/ml). A second oversulphated dermatan, with a SO3H:COOH ratio of 2.40 and molecular mass of 25 kDa, displayed the highest activity against HSV-1 (EC50 0.01 microgram/ml). An oversulphated chondroitin, with a SO3H:COOH ratio of 2.80 and molecular mass of 17.3 kDa, was the strongest anti-HCMV agent (EC50 0.4 microgram/ml). In view of the absence of the side-effects typical of heparin-like compounds, a combination of these derivatives could have therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Dermatan sulfate (DS), a complex, polydispersed, sulfate polysaccharide was investigated as a useful chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis for the enantioresolution of a variety of drugs. Analysis was carried out in a fused-silica capillary column of 48.5 cm length (40 cm to detector window) x 50 microns I.D., and the separation buffer consisted of citric acid-Tris containing DS; the applied voltage was 15 kV and the detection wavelength was 220 nm. The effects of buffer pH, the dermatan concentration and run temperature on the enantioseparation and migration were examined. The method was applied to the enantioresolution of a representative set of twenty basic drugs. At all pH values used (3.0, 4.5 and 6.5) the addition of DS resulted in an increased migration time due to analyte-DS interaction. Using DS concentration of 2% (w/W), at pH 4.5, enantiomeric separations could be obtained for more than 50% of the examined drugs; resorcinic drugs; resorcinic moiety was found to be a very favourable structural feature for obtaining high enantioresolution values.

Abstract
Dermatan sulfate (DS) is currently under clinical investigation as new antithrombotic agent. Unlike heparin, DS does not act through Antithrombin III (ATIII) but primarily through thrombin on Heparin Cofactor II (HCII). HCII is activated by the oversulfated sequence (IdoA2SO3-GalNAc4SO3)4 or by both the sequences (IdoA2SO3-GalNAc4SO3)n and (IdoA-GalNAc-4,6SO3)n, [n > or = 2]. A Low Molecular Mass Dermatan Sulfate (LMM-DS), endowed with a bioavailability three-four times higher than DS, by subcutaneous route, was obtained by chemical depolymerization of DS. The LMM-DS was fractionated by anion exchange and size exclusion chromatography. Fractions with high and low charge densities, high and low molecular masses, and high (2.66) and low (0.07) potencies on HCII were isolated. A relationship between the in vitro HCII-mediated inhibition of thrombin and the chain length of DS fractions containing oversulfated sequences was found [by a multiple regression test]. The in vivo activity increased until it reached a plateau. The important influence on the HCII activity of natural IdoA-GalNAc-4,6SO3 disaccharide was confirmed by investigation on oversulfated DS obtained by a limited and selective chemical 6-O-sulfation in GalNAc4SO3 units of DS.
