Carbohydrates from Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms interact with immune C-type lectins and interfere with their receptor function (2021)
Journal Article
Singh, S., Almuhanna, Y., Alshahrani, M. Y., Lowman, D. W., Rice, P. J., Gell, C., …Martinez-Pomares, L. (2021). Carbohydrates from Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms interact with immune C-type lectins and interfere with their receptor function. npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 7(1), Article 87. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41522-021-00257-w

Bacterial biofilms represent a challenge to the healthcare system because of their resilience against antimicrobials and immune attack. Biofilms consist of bacterial aggregates embedded in an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) composed of polysa...

Poly(triazolyl methacrylate) glycopolymers as potential targeted unimolecular nanocarriers (2019)
Journal Article
Madeira Do O, J., Foralosso, R., Yilmaz, G., Mastrotto, F., King, P. J. S., Xerri, R. M., …Mantovani, G. (2019). Poly(triazolyl methacrylate) glycopolymers as potential targeted unimolecular nanocarriers. Nanoscale, 11(44), 21155-21166. https://doi.org/10.1039/C9NR05836B

Synthetic glycopolymers are increasingly investigated as multivalent ligands for a range of biological and biomedical applications. This study indicates that glycopolymers with fine-tuned balance between hydrophilic sugar pendant units and relatively...
