Galectins play key roles in numerous biological processes. Their mode of action depends on their localization which can be extracellular, cytoplasmic or nuclear, and is partly mediated through interactions with β-galactose containing glycans. Galectins have emerged as novel therapeutic targets notably for the treatment of inflammatory disorders and cancers. This has stimulated the design of carbohydrate-based inhibitors targeting the carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) of the galectins. Pursuing this approach, we reasoned tha
