Two stable classes of thioimidoyl derivatives, S-benzoxazolyl (SBox) and S-thiazolinyl (STaz) glycosides, were investigated as glycosyl donors for solid-phase oligosaccharide synthesis. It was demonstrated that these derivatives are suitable for both glycosyl acceptor-bound and glycosyl donor-bound strategies, commonly employed in resin-supported oligosaccharide synthesis.

Aphids exhibit a unique reproductive strategy known as pseudoplacental viviparity, in which embryos develop internally and are thought to receive nutrients such as sugars and amino acids directly from the maternal hemolymph through an ovariole sheath, bypassing the need for traditional yolk storage. This system enables viviparous aphids to adapt to diverse and potentially stressful environments by transmitting maternal environmental cues that influence transgenerational plasticity. However, the mechanisms underlying this nutrient-mediated plasticity are poorly understood.

At present, there is no clear consensus on the impact of carbohydrate feeds on bee colony health, and comprehensive research and evaluation in this context is lacking. To comprehensively and objectively examine the health status of honeybees after consuming those carbohydrates from multiple perspectives, experimental techniques, including high-throughput sequencing of the transcriptome, proboscis extension reflex (PER), and measuring bee growth parameters were employed. This study showed that compared with honey, feeding high fructose syrup (HFS) resulted in a decrease in the survival rate and body weight of bees, while sucrose decreased the learning and memory ability of bees.

Breast milk is an essential source of infant nutrition. It is also a vital determinant of the structure and function of the infant intestinal microbial community, and it connects the mother and infant intestinal microbiota. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a critical component in breast milk.

2'-Fucosyllactose (2'-FL) is the most abundant human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) and has been approved to be commercially added to infant formula. Microbial synthesis from exogenous lactose via metabolic engineering is currently the major approach to production of 2'-FL. Replacement of lactose with cheaper sugars such as glucose and sucrose has been studied to reduce the production costs.

The Heck reaction is one of the most well-known C-C (carbon-carbon) coupling reactions and was identified with the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2010. These reactions have been broadly utilized to prepare a different spectrum of heterocycles with applications in agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries. These reactions are commonly catalyzed by palladium due to its tolerance and expansive variousness of functional groups, which bears a remarkable power in creating C-C bonds.
