1. Synthesis of Conformationally Restricted Oligosaccharides
Sammanfattning : Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids that often are present in increased amounts on tumor cells. Since the gangliosides are hydroxy-acids, they can form lactones. The lactones have been suspected to be more immunogenic than the open forms, but are in practise poor immunogens due to their ease of hydrolysis. LÄS MER
2. Antiadhesive agents targeting uropathogenic Escherichia coli : Multivariate studies of protein-protein and protein-carbohydrate interactions
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes studies directed towards development of novel antiadhesive agents, with particular emphasis on compounds that prevent attachment of bacteria to a host-cell. Three different proteins involved in the assembly or function of adhesive pili in uropathogenic Escherichia coli have been targeted either by rational structure based design or statistical molecular methods.

3. Potent inhibitors of uropathogenic E. coli papG adhesins; Synthesis, conformational studies and biological evaluation of galabiose derivatives and synthesis of glycosphingolipid analogues
Sammanfattning : The importance of carbohydrates in biological systems has become evident during the last fifty years. It is well known that pathogenic bacteria and viruses attach to glycoconjugates present at mammalian cell surfaces, and that this attachment is a prerequisite for the later stages of infection.

4. Carbohydrate-Based Inhibitors of Pathogen Adhesion to Cell Surface Glycoconjugates
Sammanfattning : The fact that a growing number of pathogens develop resistance against traditional treatment is a growing medical problem. Infections, which until now have been harmless, might turn into life threatening diseases. These problems have led to an intensified search for alternative treatments. Analogs of cell surface glycoconjugates are an alternative. LÄS MER
