The O-glycosyltransferase C1GALT1 promotes EWSR1::FLI1 expression and is a therapeutic target for Ewing sarcoma [PDF]
Ewing sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive bone cancer driven by the oncogenic fusion-protein EWSR1::FLI1, which is not present in normal cells and is therefore an attractive therapeutic target.

Cancer cell invasion and metastasis are the primary causes of treatment failure and death in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We previously reported that core 1 β1,3-galactosyltransferase (C1GALT1) is frequently overexpressed in HCC tumors and its ...

C1GALT1 induces the carcinogenesis of thyroid cancer through regulation by miR-141-3p and GLUT1
Core 1 β 1,3-galactosyltransferase 1 (C1GALT1) acts as an important glycosyltransferase in the occurrence and development of tumor glycosylation. However, the regulatory mechanisms of C1GALT1 in thyroid cancer (TC) is still unclear.

Protein glycosylation is a type of protein post-translational modification. One specific example is the modification of proteins with O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) and O-linked α-N-acetylgalactosamine (O-GalNAc).

Galactosylation of IgA1 Is Associated with Common Variation in C1GALT1. [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN), an important cause of kidney failure, is characterized by glomerular IgA deposition and is associated with changes in O-glycosylation of the IgA1 molecule.

A novel mechanism for C1GALT1 in the regulation of gastric cancer progression [PDF]
Background Gastric cancer (GC) is a highly aggressive and lethal disease around the world. High expression of core 1 β 1, 3-galactosyltransferase 1 (C1GALT1), the primary enzyme responsible for protein O-glycosylation, plays a critical role in gastric ...

C1GalT1 expression reciprocally controls tumour cell-cell and tumour-macrophage interactions mediated by galectin-3 and MGL with double impact on cancer development and progression [PDF]
Although most cell membrane proteins are modified by glycosylation, our understanding of the role and actions of protein glycosylation is still very limited.

Abstract 5801: Loss of core 1 β1,3-galactosyltransferase (C1GALT1) in pancreatic cancer leads to altered mucin glycosylation and increased tumor aggressiveness [PDF]
Background: Aberrant expression of mucins underlie pancreatic cancer (PC) progression and metastasis. Mucin-type O-glycosylation is the principal post-translational modification on mucins and is regulated by myriad of glycosyltransferases.

C1GALT1 expression predicts a favorable prognosis and suppresses malignant phenotypes via TrkA signaling in neuroblastoma [PDF]
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a childhood tumor derived from the sympathoadrenal lineage of the neural crest progenitor cells. Core 1 β1,3-galactosyltransferase (C1GALT1) controls the crucial step of GalNAc-type O-glycosylation, and its altered expression ...

C1GALT1 expression is associated with galactosylation of IgA1 in peripheral B lymphocyte in immunoglobulin a nephropathy [PDF]
Background More and more studies demonstrated that genetic variation at C1GALT1 influences Gd-IgA1 level in IgAN. However, whether the expression of β1, 3-galactosyltransferase (β1, 3Gal-T) was influenced may provide insights into how Gd-IgA1 levels are ...
