Synthesis of Sialyl Lewis<sup>X</sup> Mimetics with E- and P-Selectin Binding Properties and Immunosuppressive Activity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
E- and P-selectins are adhesion proteins implicated in immune cell recruitment at sites of infection, making them important drug targets for diseases involving excessive and uncontrolled inflammation. In this study, we developed an efficient strategy to synthesize bicyclic galactopyranosides through a key stereoselective equatorial C4-propiolate addition and TMSCN axial C-glycosidation. The nitrile group can then be converted to the carboxyl and different bioisosteres at a late stage in the synthesis, allowing for various derivatizations to potentially enhance biological activity. The sialyl Lewis X glycomimetic featuring this rigidified bicyclic galactopyranoside moiety prevents neutrophil adhesion to endothelial cells in vitro by binding to both E- and P-selectins. We show here that the axial carboxyl analogue blocks immune cell recruitment in vivo, demonstrating its potential as an immunomodulator.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
