| Research Abstract |
A novel method to mimic the biologically active structure of cell surface oligosaccharide has been investigated in terns of carbohydrate module method. The method, thus established in this project, involves the segmentation of an oligosaccharide antigen into two simpler saccharides and the regeneration of the bioactive structure by their radical copolymerization with acrylamide. A series of carbohydrate modules constructing each of Lewis-X, sialyl Lewis-X, and 6-sulfo-sialyl Lewis-X antigens were mimicked by the module approach and evaluated for their potential as L-selectin antgonists, in which multivalent 6-sulfo-D-GlcNAc was found to possess high biological potential.
