Partecipation in the Japanese–Italian Symposium on Organic Chemistry

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. 🎉

Increasing the Chemical Space of L-SIGN Specific Glycomimetics

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
