Résumé

Glycoconjugates are involved in several pathological processes. Glycomimetics that can favorably emulate complex carbohydrate structures, while competing with natural ligands as inhibitors, are gaining considerable attention owing to their improved hydrolytic stability, binding affinity, and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties. Of particular interest are the families of α-D-mannopyranoside analogs, which can be used as inhibitors against adherent invasive Escherichia coli infections. Bacterial resistance to modern antibiotics triggers the search for new alternative antibacterial strategies that are less susceptible to acquiring resistance. In this review, we highlight recent progress in the chemical syntheses of this family of compounds, one of which having reached clinical trials against Crohn's disease (CD).
