Abstract
In life sciences, the importance of carbohydrates is increasing. Carbohydrates have very different biological roles. One of these roles is their activities in therapy. Carbohydrate-based therapeutics are used in the treatment of cardiovascular and hematological diseases ranging from inflammatory diseases and anti-thrombotic therapies to wound healing. Heparin is the most widely known carbohydrate-based drug. Carbohydrate-based therapeutics include polysaccharide and oligosaccharide-containing anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant and antithrombotic agents, natural and synthetic sources. Some of these compounds have biological effects with arthritic and anti-HIV activities. In recent years, both natural and synthetic monosaccharides have been investigated for in vivo anti-cardioprotective and inflammatory properties.
