Fuculose is a monosaccharide that is a constituent of fucose-containing glycoproteins. It is found in the blood and urine, as well as in various tissues, such as liver, lung, kidney, and spleen. The biological properties of L-fuculose are related to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules. Fuculose has been shown to be an effective activator for cutaneous lesions in mice models. The structural analysis of L-fuculose has revealed that it contains a reactive site for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans and polysaccharides. Fuculose has also been shown to increase the proliferation of some cells, including corynebacterium glutamicum and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). This property may be due to its ability to activate growth factors or interfere with cell signaling pathways.

Monosialylated glycosphingolipid with an α1,2-fucosylated galactose at the nonreducing end. The moluecule is minimally expressed in healthy tissues but has high prevalence in some tumours such as small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Fucosyl-GM1 ganglioside is a potential tumour marker for SCLC and a potential antigen target for immunotherapy.

N-(7-Oxadecyl)deoxynojirimycin is a chaperone protein. It belongs to the group of proteins that are deficient in patients with type 1 glycogen storage disease and can be used to treat this condition. N-(7-Oxadecyl)deoxynojirimycin has been shown to bind to the endoplasmic reticulum, thereby preventing the maturation of certain proteins and their transport into other cellular compartments. This agent also has a protective function in muscle cells by preventing protein degradation due to abnormal folding or misfolding. The long-term effect of N-(7-Oxadecyl)deoxynojirimycin on skeletal muscle is unclear, although it has been found to be beneficial in the short term for patients with type 1 glycogen storage disease.

The structure of GD2-oligosaccharide-sp-biotin (sodium salt) comprises (GalNAcβ1,4Galβ1,4Glc) with two sialic acids linked (β-2,3/β-2,8) to the central galactose residue and biotin attached to position 1 of the reducing glucose moiety. GD2 ganglioside is expressed at a low concentration in the central nervous system, nerves, skin melanocytes and stem cells in healthy adults. On the other hand, GD2 ganglioside is overexpressed in a number of tumors, including: neuroblastoma, melanoma, small cell lung carcinoma and brain tumors. Recently, it has been found in low concentrations on breast cancer stem cells (CSC) that possess: self-renewal properties (division without disrupting the undifferentiated state) and tumor-initiating capabilities. It has been suggested that GD2 ganglioside may be developed as an effective target antigen for CSC immunotherapy.
