Anti-Gal and Anti-Neu5Gc Responses in Nonimmunosuppressed Patients After Treatment With Rabbit Antithymocyte Polyclonal IgGs. [PDF]

open access: yesTransplantation, 2017
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 ...

Association between Neu5Gc carbohydrate and serum antibodies against it provides the molecular link to cancer: French NutriNet-Santé study

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2020
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 ...

An Overview of the Importance and Value of Porcine Species in Sialic Acid Research

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Humans frequently interact with pigs, whose meat is also one of the primary sources of animal protein. They are one of the main species at the center of sialic acid (Sia) research.

Absorption and Transport Mechanism of Red Meat-Derived N-glycolylneuraminic Acid and Its Damage to Intestinal Barrier Function through the NF-κB Signaling Pathway

open access: yesToxins, 2023
N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is a specific factor in red meat that induces intestinal disease. Our aim was to investigate the effect of Neu5Gc on the intestinal barrier as well as its mechanism of endocytosis and exocytosis. Ten specific inhibitors

Molecular Structural Analysis of Porcine CMAH–Native Ligand Complex and High Throughput Virtual Screening to Identify Novel Inhibitors

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
Porcine meat is the most consumed red meat worldwide. Pigs are also vital tools in biological and medical research. However, xenoreactivity between porcine’s N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and human anti-Neu5Gc antibodies poses a significant ...

Potential deleterious role of anti‐Neu5Gc antibodies in xenotransplantation

open access: yesXenotransplantation, 2014
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.
