Regioselective synthesis of curdlan derivatives
Curdlan, a (1,3)-linked linear homopolysaccharide composed of beta-D-glucan, is produced by the bacterium Alcaligenes faecalis var. myxogenes. Several strategies to synthesize chemically modified curdlan derivatives have been reported, but there have been few reports of regioselective …

Regioselective Synthesis of Polysaccharide-based Polyelectrolytes
… polysaccharide derivatives from curdlan esters via regioselective ring-opening reactions catalyzed by triphenylphosphine (Ph3P) under mild conditions. Curdlan, a polysaccharide used by the food industry and in biomedical applications, was employed as starting material for …

The innate response to fungal infection
… including the Dectin-1 specific agonists curdlan and depleted zymosan, via the ERK1/2 and p38a MAPK pathways. Further, I show that although MSKs regulate Dectin-1 induced IL-10 transcription, this does not significantly affect pro-inflammatory cytokine production. This is in direct …
