It is known that an acute hepatotoxicity is produced in rats by intraperitoneal administration of galactosamine; a consequence of this treatment is a marked deficiency of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity in the plasma compartment.

Separation Methods Affect Glycan Patterns in Extracellular Vesicle Preparations From Canine Osteoblasts and Osteosarcoma Cells. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized, membrane‐enclosed particles released by cells, facilitating intercellular communication via the transfer of bioactive molecules from producing to recipient cells. EVs are involved in several physiological and pathological processes, including cancer progression.

Cutaneous eccrine glands of the foot pads of the rock hyrax (Procavia capensis, Hyracoidea, mammalia) [PDF]
In order to find correlations between skin gland morphology and specific ethological features, the cutaneous glands of the foot pads of Procavia capensis were studied by histological and various histochemical methods and by electron microscopy.

Hepatocyte BDNF Acts as a Novel Immune Checkpoint to Restrain TLR4‐Mediated Acute Hepatitis
This study identifies hepatocyte‐derived BDNF as an endogenous TLR4 antagonist that alleviates acute hepatitis. BDNF is downregulated in hepatocytes via REST‐mediated transcriptional repression during ALI/ALF. Mechanistically, BDNF binds to TLR4 on macrophages to suppress inflammation.

Pathways for the utilization of N‐acetyl‐galactosamine and galactosamine in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Among enteric bacteria, the ability to grow on N‐acetyl‐galactosamine (GalNAc or Aga) and on d‐galactosamine (GalN or Gam) differs. Thus, strains B, C and EC3132 of Escherichia coli are Aga+ Gam+ whereas E. coli K‐12 is Aga− Gam−, similarly to Klebsiella pneumoniae KAY2026, Klebsiella oxytoca M5a1 and Salmonella typhimurium LT2.

The Ensemble of Conformations of Antifreeze Glycoproteins (AFGP8): A Study Using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy. [PDF]
The primary sequence of antifreeze glycoproteins (AFGPs) is highly degenerate, consisting of multiple repeats of the same tripeptide, Ala-Ala-Thr*, in which Thr* is a glycosylated threonine with the disaccharide beta-d-galactosyl-(1,3)-alpha-N-acetyl-d ...

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

The glycosyltransferase GALNT10 facilitates ovarian cancer metastasis through the induction of tumor cell EMT and tumor vascular dysfunction. GALNT10 enhanced the extracellular secretion of IGFBP7 through O‐GalNAc glycosylation modification at the T188 site, which subsequently interacts with CD93 on endothelial cells, leading to vascular remodeling ...
