This book deals with a variety of aspects of natural product
research. It includes review articles and revised original
contributions involving analysis, isolation and structure
elucidation, synthesis and bioactivity of terrestrial and marine
natural products. Plant cell biotechnology for the production of
secondary metabolites is discussed. This volume provides also
outstanding information about the industrial application of natural
products for medicinal purposes.
The broad interdisciplinary approach found in this book, which
comprises 50 papers, makes it interesting to the scientists, whose
work is in any way related to the research or use of natural
products.
In many fields, most notably medicine and molecular biology, the
understanding of the structure and function of carbohydrates and
glycoconjugates remains vital. This new volume contains critical
reviews covering the latest findings in both chemical and
biological sciences, and demonstrates the interdisciplinary nature
of modern carbohydrate research. This book addresses diverse
applications that continue to be major challenges for carbohydrate
chemists. The book starts with a review of Gerard Descotes
contribution to the field as a pioneer of French modern
carbohydrate chemistry. Green nanocatalytic oxidation of free
sugars, photosensitive glycomacrocycles, the application of
disaccharides in supramolecular chemistry, recent advances in the
radiation chemistry of polysaccharides, and the cell wall pectic
rhamnogalacturonan II, an enigma in plant glycobiology are just
some of the diverse topics presented in Volume 45. This set of
reports will certainly benefit any researcher who wishes to learn
about the latest developments in the carbohydrate field.

Carbohydrate chemistry provides access to carbohydrate-based
natural products and synthetic molecules as useful biologically
active structures relevant to many health care and disease-related
biological processes. Recent Trends in Carbohydrate Chemistry:
Synthesis, Structure, and Function of Carbohydrates covers green
and sustainable reactions, organometallic carbohydrate chemistry,
synthesis of glycomimetics, multicomponent reactions, and chemical
transformations leading to molecular diversity based on
carbohydrates. These include inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase,
which are relevant in controlling type 2 diabetes and sugar
sulfates. Polysaccharides, which are commonly modified chemically,
are also examined with contributions covering polysaccharide
synthesis and modification of polysaccharides to obtain new
structures and properties. Recent Trends in Carbohydrate Chemistry:
Synthesis, Structure, and Function of Carbohydrates is ideal for
researchers working as synthetic organic chemists, and for those
interested in biomolecular chemistry, green chemistry,
organometallic chemistry, and material chemistry in academia as
well as in industry

Recent Trends in Carbohydrate Chemistry: Synthesis and Biomedical
Applications of Glycans and Glycoconjugates covers biomedically
relevant bacterial cell wall carbohydrates including recent
findings on biosynthetic aspects, advances in the chemical assembly
of bacterial lipopolysaccharide fragments and teichoic acids, and
modern NMR approaches to unravel structural details. The first part
introduces and provides the relevant background for synthetic
glycoconjugate vaccines. The second section focuses on synthetic
carbohydrate-based vaccines of therapeutic potential that are
licensed or under development. This second volume of Recent Trends
in Carbohydrate Chemistry is ideal for researchers working as
synthetic organic chemists, as well as those interested in
glycoconjugation, protein chemists, immunologists, and
microbiologists, in academia as well as in industry.
In this volume, glycochemistry and glycobiology have been combined
to demonstrate the contribution of organic chemistry, modern
analytics, biological and biochemical expertise to the increasingly
important field of glycomincs. A polysaccharide immunomodulator
with therapeutic implications, carbohydrate vaccines, new findings
emphasizing the influence of carbohydrate decoration on the
regulation of inflammatory response and new therapeutic approaches
in the treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, recent
approachesin the treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory
diseases, recent progress on glycoengineering based on a
glycosylation, and key aspects of the glycosylation changes
associated with bladder cancer are amongst the subjects presented
in this volume. The contribution of glycochemistry to innovation in
glycosciences is shown with chapters covering highly functionalized
exo-glycals for the generation of molecular diversity in a
chemoselective manner, imino sugar glycosidase inhibitors,
carbasugars, multivalent glycoconjugates, including
glycodendrimers, glyconanotubes, and glyconanoparticles, and their
uses in medicinal chemistry, as well as artificial saccharide-based
and saccharide functionalized gene delivery systems. Siderphores
based on monosaccharides (which have proven effective for
Gram-negative bacteria and mycobacteria), and the so-called smart
materials, (which can modulate and control cell behaviour),
complete the volume. Volume 38 of Carbohydrate Chemistry - Chemical
and Biological Apporaches contains contributions ranging from
glycochemistry to glycobiology. This collection demonstrates in a
meaningful way how the interdisciplinary approach of an
international glyconetwork can advance the field of carbohydrate
research in Europe and worldwide.
Carbohydrate Chemistry provides review coverage of all publications
relevant to the chemistry of monosaccharides and oligosaccharides
in a given year. The amount of research in this field appearing in
the organic chemical literature is increasing because of the
enhanced importance of the subject, especially in areas of
medicinal chemistry and biology. In no part of the field is this
more apparent than in the synthesis of oligosaccharides required by
scientists working in glycobiology. Clycomedicinal chemistry and
its reliance on carbohydrate synthesis is now very well
established, for example, by the preparation of specific
carbohydrate- based antigens, especially cancer-specific
oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. Coverage of topics such as
nucleosides, amino-sugars, alditols and cyclitols also covers much
research of relevance to biological and medicinal chemistry. Each
volume of the series brings together references to all published
work in given areas of the subject and serves as a comprehensive
database for the active research chemist Specialist Periodical
Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major
areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading
authorities in the relevant subject areas, the series creates a
unique service for the active research chemist, with regular,
in-depth accounts of progress in particular fields of chemistry.
Subject coverage within different volumes of a given title is
similar and publication is on an annual or biennial basis.

The understanding of the structure and function of carbohydrates
and glycoconjugates remains vital in many fields, notably in
medicine and molecular biology. This new volume of Carbohydrate
Chemistry contains critical reviews covering the latest findings in
both chemical and biological sciences, and demonstrates the
interdisciplinary nature of modern carbohydrate research. This book
addresses diverse applications that continue to be major challenges
for carbohydrate chemists. The oxidative deamination reactions and
synthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid derivatives, ketoheptoses,
lipid A and analogs, the fascinating world of complex glycans in
the interplay with Siglecs, carbohydrates and regenerative
medicine, chemistry for the stereocontrol of glycosylation, and the
impact of gold chemistry in carbohydrate research are some of the
topics presented in this volume 44, which will certainly benefit
any researcher who wishes to learn about the latest developments in
the carbohydrate field.
