Structure of dendritic polyglycerol heparin mimetics: The structure of dendritic polyglycerols (dPG) scaffold illustrates an idealized fragment of the polymer. (A) Structure of (a) dendritic polyglycerol starting material and (b) dendritic polyglycerol heparin mimetics synthesized via click coupling by Weinhart et al. [117]; (B) Structure of (c) dendritic polyglycerol starting material and (d,e) radiolabeled dendritic polyglycerol heparin mimetics synthesized by Pant et al. [118]; (C) Structure of (f) dendritic polyglycerol starting material and (g–i) shell cleavable dendritic polyglycerol heparin mimetics synthesized by Reimann et al. [95].
