Abstract
Two rigid macrocyclic glycopeptides 1 and 2 were designed to mimic the tetr asaccharide SLe(X) as inhibitors of P-selectin. While compound 1 was found to be 1000-fold more potent than SLe(X) with IC50=1 muM, compound 2 was not soluble in water for evaluation of its activity. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
