    Abstract : In recent years insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) has emerged as a new therapeutic target for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and other memory-related disorders. So far, many potent and specific IRAP inhibitors had been disclosed, including peptides, peptidomimetics, and low-molecular-weight sulfonamides. READ MORE

    Abstract : Hepatitis C is a global health problem that affects approximately 120–180 million people. This viral infection causes serious liver diseases and the therapy available suffers from low efficiency and severe side effects. Consequently, there is a huge unmet medical need for new therapeutic agents to combat the hepatitis C virus (HCV). READ MORE

  5. 3. Design and Synthesis of Glycomimetics as Selective Galectin Inhibitors

    Author : Mukul Mahanti; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galectin; Galectin inhibitors; Glycomimentics; Epimeric switch; MD simulation;

    Abstract : In last couple of decades the field of glycobiology has developed rapidly due to the increased understanding of glycans’ abilities to encode biological information, which may have impact on biological event and disease, such as for example tumour growth and inflammation. This development has been accompanied by an increasing focus on drug discovery revolving around a category of carbohydrate-based drugs termed glycomimetics. READ MORE
