Structure aided design of a Neu5Gc specific lectin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Subtilase cytotoxin (SubAB) of Escherichia coli is an AB5 class bacterial toxin. The pentameric B subunit (SubB) binds the cellular carbohydrate receptor, α2–3-linked N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc).

Anti-Neu5Gc and anti-non-Neu5Gc antibodies in healthy humans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Our group previously investigated the levels of anti-Gal and anti-nonGal IgM and IgG in a cohort of 75 healthy humans of various backgrounds, and found some significant differences related to factors such as age, gender, ABO blood group, diet ...

N-Glycolylneuraminic Acid (Neu5Gc) Null Large Animals by Targeting the CMP-Neu5Gc Hydroxylase (CMAH) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The two major sialic acids described in mammalian cells are the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and the N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac). Neu5Gc synthesis starts from the N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) precursor modified by an hydroxylic group ...

The Possible Role of Anti-Neu5Gc as an Obstacle in Xenotransplantation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Seventy to ninety percentage of preformed xenoreactive antibodies in human serum bind to the galactose-α(1,3)-galactose Gal epitope, and the creation of Gal knockout (KO) pigs has eliminated hyperacute rejection as a barrier to xenotransplantation.

Antibody-Targeted Artificial T Cell and Natural Killer Cell Derived Vesicles for Cancer Immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Extracell Vesicles
ABSTRACT T cell and NK92 cell‐derived extracellular vesicles or artificial cell‐derived vesicles (ACDVs) exhibit anti‐cancer effects through inherited cytotoxic proteins like perforin and granzyme or transmembrane receptors like FasL and TRAIL. The anti‐cancer potential of artificial T and NK vesicles has been improved by attaching targeting moieties ...

Effect of Pulsed Electric Field Treatment on N-Hydroxyacetylneuraminic Acid Content and Eating Quality of Pork [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue, 2023
This study investigated how to reduce the content of N-hydroxyacetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) in pork. By using Neu5Gc standard solution, porcine submandibular gland mucin (PSM) solution, meat pieces and minced meat as experimental subjects, and high ...

Synthesis of α‐(2→5)Neu5Gc Oligomers. [PDF]

open access: yesChemInform, 2003
AbstractA facile synthesis of the sialic acid oligomers α‐(2→5)Neu5Gc (1) is presented. Monosaccharides 2–4 with suitable functionality were used as the building blocks. After selective removal of the paired carboxyl and amine protecting groups, the fully protected oligomers were assembled through consecutive coupling of the building blocks by well ...

At least two Fc Neu5Gc residues of monoclonal antibodies are required for binding to anti-Neu5Gc antibody [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractTwo non-human glycan epitopes, galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-gal) and Neu5Gc-α-2-6-galactose (Neu5Gc) have been shown to be antigenic when attached to Fab oligosaccharides of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) , while α-gal attached to Fc glycans was not.

Association between Neu5Gc carbohydrate and serum antibodies against it provides the molecular link to cancer: French NutriNet-Santé study

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2020
Background High consumption of red and processed meat is commonly associated with increased cancer risk, particularly colorectal cancer. Antibodies against the red meat-derived carbohydrate N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) exacerbate cancer in “human ...
