Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is now a first-order health problem, which makes the development of new families of antimicrobials imperative. These compounds should ideally be inexpensive, readily available, highly active, and non-toxic. Here, we present the results of our investigation regarding the antimicrobial activity of a series of natural and synthetic polyamines with different architectures (linear, tripodal, and macrocyclic) and their derivatives with the oxygen-containing aromatic functional groups 1,3-benzodioxol, ortho/para phenol, or 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran. The new compounds were prepared through an inexpensive process, and their activity was tested against selected strains of yeast, as well as Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In all cases, the conjugated derivatives showed antimicrobial activity higher than the unsubstituted polyamines. Several factors, such as the overall charge at physiological pH, lipophilicity, and the topology of the polyamine scaffold were relevant to their activity. The nature of the lipophilic moiety was also a determinant of human cell toxicity. The lead compounds were found to be bactericidal and fungistatic, and they were synergic with the commercial antifungals fluconazole, cycloheximide, and amphotericin B against the yeast strains tested.

Abstract
Interactions between carbohydrate-containing glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids on the cell surface are important biological stages for the processes of bacterial or viral infection and tumor metastasis. Moreover, supramolecular interaction by macromolecules with two-fold (C2) or three-fold (C3) geometry is one of the common interactions in many important biological responses. To develop new multivalent symmetrical bioactive compounds or leads, we designed and synthesized several new molecules with these geometries and evaluated their bioactivities in an attempt to find new types of bioactive leads that may interfere with the sugar recognition process. We evaluated bioactivities including antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer activities of targeted molecules in vitro using biological assay systems. Among the synthesized target derivatives examined, some bivalent symmetrical derivatives showed high levels of bioactivities. In this review, the author describes the results of synthesis of oligovalent symmetrical target compounds and some interesting guiding results of evaluation of their biological activities and structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
We report the preparation of new C3- and CS-symmetrical molecules constructed on a triazine (TAZ) template. Anti-herpes simplex virus type 1 (anti-HSV-1) and cytotoxic activities against Vero cells of synthesized TAZ derivatives were evaluated. The results suggested that the presence of an electron-donating group(s) on the benzene ring in benzylamine groups on the TAZ template is an important structural factor for expressing a high level of anti-HSV-1 activity and low cytotoxicity for these C3 types of TAZ derivatives. Among the tested TAZ derivatives, compounds 4f and 7h showed the highest anti HSV-1 activities (EC50=0.98 and 1.23 µM, respectively) and low cytotoxic activities to Vero cells (50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50)=292.2 and >200 µM, respectively).
