Vaccination targeting a surface sialidase of P. acnes: implication for new treatment of acne vulgaris. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Acne vulgaris afflicts more than fifty million people in the United State and the severity of this disorder is associated with the immune response to Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). Systemic therapies for acne target P.

Sialidase Inhibitors with Different Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
[Image: see text] Sialidases, or neuraminidases, are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of sialic acid (Sia)-containing molecules, mostly removal of the terminal Sia (desialylation).

Hypomorphic sialidase expression decreases serum cholesterol by downregulation of VLDL production in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Lipoprotein metabolism is an important contributing factor in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Plasma lipoproteins and their receptors are heavily glycosylated and sialylated, and levels of sialic acids modulate their biological ...

3-Exomethylene Sialic Acid Disaccharides as Substrate-Type Mechanism-Based Sialidase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We designed α(2,3)- and α(2,6)-sialylgalactose analogues bearing an exomethylene unit at C3 of sialic acid (3-exoSia) as a novel type of mechanism-based inhibitors of sialidases.

Glycohistochemical study of the toadfish Halobatrachus didactylus (Scheider, 1801) stomach

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2009
Toadfish Halobatrachus didactylus gastric mucosa was studied using conventional and lectin histochemistry. Conventional histochemistry revealed neutral glycoconjugates predominating over acidic ones in the apical zone of both surface epithelial cells and
