Developments in Carbohydrate-Based Cancer Therapeutics

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2019
Cancer cells of diverse origins express extracellular tumor-specific carbohydrate antigens (TACAs) because of aberrant glycosylation. Overexpressed TACAs on the surface of tumor cells are considered biomarkers for cancer detection and have always been ...

A combined computational-experimental approach to define the structural origin of antibody recognition of sialyl-Tn, a tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anti-carbohydrate monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) hold great promise as cancer therapeutics and diagnostics. However, their specificity can be mixed, and detailed characterization is problematic, because antibody-glycan complexes are challenging to ...

The effect of a methyl group on structure and function: Serine vs. threonine glycosylation and phosphorylation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
A variety of glycan structures cover the surface of all cells and are involved in myriad biological processes, including but not limited to, cell adhesion and communication, protein quality control, signal transduction and metabolism, while also being ...

Synthetic Self-Adjuvanting Glycopeptide Cancer Vaccines

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2015
Due to changes in glycosyltransferase expression during tumorigenesis, the glycoproteins of cancer cells often carry highly truncated carbohydrate chains compared to those on healthy cells.

Anomeric O-Functionalization of Carbohydrates for Chemical Conjugation to Vaccine Constructs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Carbohydrates mediate a wide range of biological interactions, and understanding these processes benefits the development of new therapeutics. Isolating sufficient quantities of glycoconjugates from biological samples remains a significant challenge ...

Immune Response Modulation by Tumor-Secreted Glycosphingolipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although originally considered merely structural components of cellular membranes, glycosphingolipids (GSL) arenow recognized as having critical effects on cellular physiology, including proliferation, differentiation, viraltransformation and ontogenesis.

Entirely Carbohydrate-Based Vaccines: An Emerging Field for Specific and Selective Immune Responses

open access: yesVaccines, 2016
Carbohydrates are regarded as promising targets for vaccine development against infectious disease because cell surface glycans on many infectious agents are attributed to playing an important role in pathogenesis.
