Presentation Mode of Glycans Affect Recognition of Human Serum anti-Neu5Gc IgG Antibodies [PDF]
Recognition of carbohydrates by antibodies can be affected by antigen composition and density. This had been investigated in a variety of controllable multivalent systems using synthetic carbohydrate antigens, yet such effects on anticarbohydrate antibodies in circulating human serum have not been fully addressed thus far.

At least two Fc Neu5Gc residues of monoclonal antibodies are required for binding to anti-Neu5Gc antibody [PDF]
AbstractTwo non-human glycan epitopes, galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-gal) and Neu5Gc-α-2-6-galactose (Neu5Gc) have been shown to be antigenic when attached to Fab oligosaccharides of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) , while α-gal attached to Fc glycans was not.

A general and accessible approach to enrichment and characterisation of natural anti-Neu5Gc antibodies from human samples [PDF]
A workflow to enrich and detect anti-Neu5Gc antibodies from individual plasma specimens, using CMAH-transfected human cells as a source of Neu5Gc-containing glycans.

Profiling Anti-Neu5Gc IgG in Human Sera with a Sialoglycan Microarray Assay. [PDF]
Cells are covered with a cloak of carbohydrate chains (glycans) that is commonly altered in cancer and that includes variations in sialic acid (Sia) expression. These are acidic sugars that have a 9-carbon backbone and that cap vertebrate glycans on cell surfaces.

Anti-Gal and Anti-Neu5Gc Responses in Nonimmunosuppressed Patients After Treatment With Rabbit Antithymocyte Polyclonal IgGs. [PDF]
Polyclonal antihuman thymocyte rabbit IgGs (antithymocyte globulin [ATG]) are popular immunosuppressive drugs used to prevent or treat organ or bone-marrow allograft rejection, graft versus host disease, and autoimmune diseases. However, animal-derived glycoproteins are also strongly immunogenic and rabbit ATG induces serum sickness disease in almost ...

Potential deleterious role of anti‐Neu5Gc antibodies in xenotransplantation
AbstractHuman beings do not synthesize the glycolyl form of the sialic acid (Neu5Gc) and only express the acetylated form of the sugar, whereas a diet‐based intake of Neu5Gc provokes a natural immunization and production of anti‐Neu5Gc antibodies in human serum.

Anti-Neu5Gc Antibody Kit Protocol - Western Blot v2
The Anti-Neu5Gc Antibody Kit contains the essential monospecific polyclonal chicken IgY antibody, along with a negative control primary antibody to detect the presence of Neu5Gc on glycoconjugates by Western blot (WB). Samples to be evaluated are first subjected to SDS-PAGE, followed by transfer to a nitrocellulose or polyvinylidenedifluoride (PVDF ...

Association between Neu5Gc carbohydrate and serum antibodies against it provides the molecular link to cancer: French NutriNet-Santé study [PDF]
Background High consumption of red and processed meat is commonly associated with increased cancer risk, particularly colorectal cancer. Antibodies against the red meat-derived carbohydrate N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) exacerbate cancer in “human ...
