The structural complexity and the synthetic challenges facing
glycans have historically hampered efforts to study their
multifaceted roles and the application of carbohydrates in drug
development. However, in very recent years, new synthetic
techniques flanked by the growing knowledge about carbohydrate
involvement in physiological and pathological states has spurred
renewed interest in the chemistry, biology and therapeutic
potentialities of carbohydrates. This book offers an overview of
key aspects of carbohydrate biology and chemistry that are
fundamental for the design of novel therapeutics. The four-part
structure of this book introduces these essential components to
life, starting from their structure and biological roles and
covering analytical methods and synthesis which pave the way for
the development of a wide range of therapeutic applications.Leading
experts from around the world are brought together to offer their
recent research with the ultimate aim of enlightening the reader on
the complex yet exciting field of carbohydrate chemistry. Academic
and industrial researchers in structural biology, drug discovery
and carbohydrate chemistry will find this book an essential guide
to the latest research and future potential of medicinal chemistry.
