Tumor-associated Carbohydrate Antigens: Sialyl Lea and T/Tn Antigens in Canine Mammary Tumors [PDF]
Twenty-eight canine mammary tubulopapillary carcinomas and 14 simple adenomas were studied by immunohistochemistry for the expressions of the tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens. Sialyl Lea was detected in 71.42% of the malignant and 92.84% of the benign tumors.

Tobacco Mosaic Virus as a New Carrier for Tumor Associated Carbohydrate Antigens [PDF]
Tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens (TACAs) are being actively studied as targets for antitumor vaccine development. One serious challenge was the low immunogenecity of these antigens. Herein, we report the results of using the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) capsid as a promising carrier of a weakly immunogenic TACA, the monomeric Tn antigen. The copper(

MGL‐Based Drug Conjugate: A Novel Glycan‐Targeting Strategy for Potential Precision Cancer Therapy
Cancer remains a major cause of mortality, especially in advanced stages where current therapies are less effective. Antibody‐drug conjugates offer targeted treatment, but their efficacy is limited by on‐target/off‐tumor toxicity since most protein ...
