Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have emerged as a powerful immunotherapeutic tool against certain hematological malignancies but a significant proportion of patients either do not respond or they relapse, sometimes as a result of target antigen ...

Antitumor effects of the GM3(Neu5Gc) ganglioside-specific humanized antibody 14F7hT against Cmah-transfected cancer cells [PDF]
AbstractThe GM3(Neu5Gc) ganglioside represents a tumor-specific antigen that is considered a promising target for cancer immunotherapy. We previously demonstrated that the humanized antibody 14F7hT, specific for this ganglioside, exhibited significant antitumor effects in preclinical hematological tumor models.

Human evolutionary loss of epithelial Neu5Gc expression and species-specific susceptibility to cholera. [PDF]
While infectious agents have typical host preferences, the noninvasive enteric bacterium Vibrio cholerae is remarkable for its ability to survive in many environments, yet cause diarrheal disease (cholera) only in humans. One key V.

The Inhibitory Effect of Early Pregnancy Factor on Red Meat Neu5Gc-Mediated Antibody Production in CMAH-/- Mice. [PDF]
The meat derived from mammals such as cows, sheep, and pigs is commonly referred to as red meat. Recent studies have shown that consuming red meat can activate the immune system, produce antibodies, and subsequently develop into tumors and cancer. This is due to the presence of a potential carcinogenic compound in red meat called N-ethanol neuraminic ...

Whole blood transcriptome analysis of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp mycoides-infected cattle confirms immunosuppression but does not reflect local inflammation [PDF]
Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides (Mmm), is a severe respiratory disease of cattle responsible for major economic losses in sub-Saharan Africa.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a degenerative genetic myopathy characterized by complete absence of dystrophin. Although the mdx mouse lacks dystrophin, its phenotype is milder compared to DMD patients. The incorporation of a null mutation in the Cmah gene led to a more DMD-like phenotype (i.e., more fibrosis).
