In this volume glycochemistry and glycobiology have been combined to demonstrate the contribution of organic chemistry modern analytics biological and biochemical expertise to the increasingly important field of glycomincs. A polysaccharide immunomodulator with therapeutic implications carbohydrate vaccines new findings emphasizing the influence of carbohydrate decoration on the regulation of inflammatory response and new therapeutic approaches in the treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases recent approachesin the treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases recent progress on glycoengineering based on a glycosylation and key aspects of the glycosylation changes associated with bladder cancer are amongst the subjects presented in this volume. The contribution of glycochemistry to innovation in glycosciences is shown with chapters covering highly functionalized exo-glycals for the generation of molecular diversity in a chemoselective manner imino sugar glycosidase inhibitors carbasugars multivalent glycoconjugates including glycodendrimers glyconanotubes and glyconanoparticles and their uses in medicinal chemistry as well as artificial saccharide-based and saccharide functionalized gene delivery systems. Siderphores based on monosaccharides which have proven effective for gram-negative bacteria and mycobacteria and the so-called smart materials which can modulate and control cell behaviour complete the volume.
