The ability of a rigid α-Tn mimetic (compound 1) to activate murine invariant natural killer T (iNKT) and human natural killer (NK) cells, two subsets of lymphocytes involved in cancer immunesurveillance, was investigated. For this purpose, the mimetic 1 was properly conjugated to a stearic acid containing glycerol-based phospholipid (compound 5) to be presented, in the context of the conserved non polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I-like molecules (CD1d), to iNKT cells. On the contrary, the mimetic 1 was conjugated to a multivalent peptide-based scaffold (compound 6) to induce NK cell activation.
To improve the preparation of the microarray in terms of rapidity and simplicity and to provide addressable surfaces on which sugars can be linked chemoselectively as clusters at defined plots, a second “indirect” strategy has been developed using successive oxime ligation steps. In both cases, binding assays with labelled lectins have revealed more potent and selective interaction due to the clustered
An efficient synthetic strategy based on orthogonal chemoselective ligations to prepare fully synthetic glycosylated cyclopeptide scaffolds grafted with both Tn and TF antigen analogues is reported. To evaluate their ability to be recognized as tumor antigens, direct interaction ELISA assays have been performed with the anti-Tn monoclonal antibody 9A7 (see figure).

Neoglycopeptides containing an oxime sugar-peptidelinkage can be generated by coupling an aminooxy sugar with a peptide bearing a keto-amino acid. The coupling reaction can be executed in aqueous milieu without need for protecting groups on the peptide or saccharide, or auxiliary coupling reagents. Using this method, an oxime-linked analog of an antimicrobial peptide with glycosylation-dependent function

N-acetylgalactoses and mannoses (18-20) have shown specific recognition and enhanced affinity through multivalent interactions, suggesting that the local density of carbohydrate-based ligands at the bead surface is crucial to improve the interaction of proteins of weak binding affinity. This solid phase strategy involving both molecular assembly and biological screening provides a rapid and efficient tool for various
