Earley D, Bailly B, Maggioni A, Kundur A, Thomson R, Chang C, et al.
ACS Infect Dis . 2019 Jul; 5(10):1708-1717. PMID: 31307190
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a major etiological agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease, for which there is no antiviral therapy. We have developed densely sulfated disaccharide heparan sulfate (HS)...

Antiviral Res . 2019 Apr; 167:89-97. PMID: 30951732
Human parainfluenza viruses cause acute respiratory tract infections and disease predominantly in young children and immunocompromised individuals. Currently, there are no vaccines to prevent hPIV infections, nor licensed anti-hPIV drugs....

ACS Chem Biol . 2018 Apr; 13(6):1544-1550. PMID: 29693380
A novel approach to human parainfluenza virus 3 (hPIV-3) inhibitor design has been evaluated by targeting an unexplored pocket within the active site region of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) of the...

Hadhazi A, Li L, Bailly B, Maggioni A, Martin G, Dirr L, et al.
ChemMedChem . 2018 Feb; 13(8):785-789. PMID: 29453852
Influenza virus infection continues to cause significant, often severe, respiratory illness worldwide. A validated target for the development of anti-influenza agents is the virus surface protein sialidase. In the current...

Hadhazi A, Pascolutti M, Bailly B, Dyason J, Borbas A, Thomson R, et al.
Org Biomol Chem . 2017 May; 15(25):5249-5253. PMID: 28540971
A new direction for influenza virus sialidase inhibitor development was identified using a sulfonate congener of 2-deoxy-2-β-H N-acetylneuraminic acid. Sialosyl sulfonates can be synthesised efficiently in four steps from N-acetylneuraminic...

Madge P, Maggioni A, Pascolutti M, Amin M, Waespy M, Bellette B, et al.
Sci Rep . 2016 Nov; 6:36012. PMID: 27808110
Siglec-2 undergoes constitutive endocytosis and is a drug target for autoimmune diseases and B cell-derived malignancies, including hairy cell leukaemia, marginal zone lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)....

Direct access to 3-O-functionalized 2-α-N-acetylneuraminides and their corresponding 2,3-dehydro-2-deoxy-N-acetylneuraminic acid derivatives is described. Initially, a stereoselective ring-opening of the key intermediate N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) 2,3-β-epoxide with an alcohol provided the...

Novel 3,4-disubstituted-Neu5Ac2en derivatives have been synthesised to probe the open 150-loop conformation of influenza virus sialidases. Both equatorially and axially (epi) substituted C4 amino and guanidino 3-(p-tolyl)allyl-Neu5Ac2en derivatives were prepared,...
