Polysaccharides containing two antithrombin III binding sites, their preparation and their use as antithrombotic agents

摘要

The invention relates to sulphated polysaccharides which have the general structure of the constituent polysaccharides of heparin and which have a molecular weight of less than 8000 Daltons, comprising two antithrombin III-binding hexasaccharide sequences corresponding to formula (I) in which: R1 represents an OH group when the hexasaccharide of formula (I) is located at the reducing end of the polysaccharide, or else R1 represents a bond with another saccharide unit of said polysaccharide; R2 represents a hydrogen atom when the hexasaccharide of formula (I) is located at the non-reducing end of the polysaccharide, in which case the bond between carbon atoms 4 and 5 of the first saccharide unit of said hexasaccharide is a double bond, or else R2 represents a bond with another saccharide unit of said polysaccharide, in which case the bond between carbon atoms 4 and 5 of the first saccharide unit is a single bond. Preparation thereof, use thereof as antithrombotic medicaments, and also use thereof in a method for analyzing a sample of a heparin derivative.
