Last week, our PhD student Irene Gado attended the Japanese–Italian Symposium on Organic Chemistry in Bari. The event provided an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with fellow researchers and professors, and to present her research titled “Probing reversible-covalent ligand–lectin interactions via NMR spectroscopy.”Her poster presentation was recognized with the Best Poster Presentation Award. 🎉
G. Cavazzoli, C. Delaunay, S. Pollastri, A. Panzeri, S. Sattin, M.Thépaut, L. Belvisi, F. Fieschi, A. Bernardi J. Med. Chem. (2025) Selective ligands for the C-type lectin receptor L-SIGN offer promising avenues in antiviral therapies and for tissue-specific delivery. We recently reported that a guanidine-bearing modified mannose glycomimetic, called Man84, binds to L-SIGN with micromolar … Read more

M. Vacchini, L. Sironi, G. Macetti, L. Lo Presti Cryst. Growth Des. (2025) Measuring the minimum size a molecular aggregate must reach to form an ordered crystal that is, whether and to what extent subcritical structures with only partially developed translational symmetry might produce recognizable diffraction patterns — remains an unsolved problem. Any ensemble of … Read more
