The book covers current progress and opens new frontiers in carbohydrate-based therapeutic applications. It presents a detailed background of the diseases coupled with the subsequent carbohydrate-based therapies. This aspect renders this book unique and will serve as a quick reference practical book of carbohydrate applications. The link between chemistry and design of novel carbohydrate-based medicines is highlighted and broad overview of all the potential applications of carbohydrates is given. Emphasis is laid on concepts used for carbohydrate drug design, structure-activity relationship and impact on health and diseases.
