1. Novel monogalactoside galectin inhibitor scaffolds : Guiding selectivity with heteroaromatic interactions
Sammanfattning : Carbohydrates are involved in many cellular processes, and most biomolecules are glycosylated. Thesemodifications are used in biological systems as information carriers, helping regulate organization on the cell surfaceand interactions between cells and the environment. LÄS MER
2. Synthetic Galectin Inhibitors Selective O-galactosyl aldoximes, multivalent lactosides and galactose-mimicking mannosides
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the design, synthesis and evaluation of synthetic inhibitors for the carbohydrate binding proteins called galectins. Potent and selective inhibitors can be used as important research tools in the endeavor to chart the true role of galectins in biological events such as cancer and inflammation and possibly as lead for future galectin targeting drugs.

3. Immunosuppressive and metastasis-promoting matrisome proteins in pancreatic cancer : the role of galectin 4 and SERPINB5
Sammanfattning : In Sweden 1200-1300 people are diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) every year. Late diagnosis, together with poor treatment response and resistance to checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy, contributes to the poor prognosis of the disease. LÄS MER
4. Novel glycomimetic inhibitors and proteolysis-targeting chimeras for human galectins
Sammanfattning : Galectins are a family of soluble proteins that bind β-D-galactopyranoside-containing glycoconjugates through their conserved carbohydrate-recognition domains. Galectins have emerged as promising drug targets due to their involvement in various pathological conditions, such as tumor growth and metastasis, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, as well as metabolic disorders.

5. Iron Carbonyl Mediated Parallel Synthesis
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the examination and development of cationic iron carbonyl complexes for use in parallel synthesis both in solution phase and on solid phase. A solution phase methodology for carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom formation, utilizing polymer bound reagents and scavengers and amenable for automation has been successfully developed. LÄS MER
