Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

Core Fucosylation Represses SMURF1‐Dependent Degradation of CD47 to Promote Tumor Immune Evasion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
FUT8‐mediated core fucosylation of CD47 at N111 blocks SMURF1 binding and reduces CD47 ubiquitination and degradation. Blocking N111 glycosylation reduces CD47 expression and promotes macrophage phagocytosis of tumor cells. Furthermore, ablating CD47 core fucosylation boosts CD103+ dendritic cells (DCs) infiltration, increases natural killer (NK) cell ...

Evaluation of a Novel Anti-Mucin 1 (MUC1) Antibody (PankoMab) as a Potential Diagnostic Tool in Human Ductal Breast Cancer; Comparison with Two Established Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Aim: PankoMab is a novel antibody that recognizes a tumor-specific epitope of Mucin 1 (MUC1). The aim of this study was the evaluation of PankoMab as a potential diagnostic tool and its comparison with two established antibodies against MUC1 in human ...

OCTN2 Activates a Non‐Canonical Carnitine Metabolic Pathway to Promote MASH‐HCC Progression and Immunotherapy Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In non‐MASH‐HCC, L‐carnitine promotes tumor progression primarily through its classical role in enhancing fatty acid oxidation (FAO). However, in MASH‐HCC, where FAO is markedly suppressed, L‐carnitine shifts from this canonical function to serve instead as an intracellular acetyl group buffer.

B4GALNT2 and xenotransplantation: A newly appreciated xenogeneic antigen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Analysis of non-Gal antibody induced after pig-to-baboon cardiac xenotransplantation identified the glycan produced by porcine beta-1,4-N-acetyl-galactosaminyltransferase 2 (B4GALNT2) as an immunogenic xenotransplantation antigen.

Machine Learning‐Enhanced Analysis of Exosomal Surface Sialic Acid Using Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy for Ovarian Cancer Diagnosis and Therapeutic Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Machine learning‐assisted surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy analysis of exosomal sialic acid for ovarian cancer diagnosis, as well as independent monitoring of exosomal sialic acid expression levels across different treatment periods, reveals a potential correlation with treatment response.

Cytokine‐Engineered Chimeric Antigen Receptor‐T Cell Therapy: How to Balance the Efficacy and Toxicity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cytokine‐engineered CAR‐T cells represent a promising immunotherapy against malignancies due to direct tumor killing and potent immunity response. However, significant toxicities, including CRS and ICANS, have restricted clinical applications. How to keep the risk‐benefit balance of the advanced therapy is of great importance for maximizing the benefit

Maternal Tn Immunization Attenuates Hyperoxia-Induced Lung Injury in Neonatal Rats Through Suppression of Oxidative Stress and Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Hyperoxia therapy is often required to treat newborns with respiratory disorders. Prolonged hyperoxia exposure increases oxidative stress and arrests alveolar development in newborn rats.

Targeting antigens to dendritic cell receptors for vaccine development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dendritic cells (DCs) are highly specialized antigen presenting cells of the immune system which play a key role in regulating immune responses. Depending on the method of antigen delivery, DCs stimulate immune responses or induce tolerance.
