Diversity of sialic acids and sialoglycoproteins in gametes and at fertilization [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Sialic acids are a family of 9-carbon monosaccharides with particular physicochemical properties. They modulate the biological functions of the molecules that carry them and are involved in several steps of the reproductive process.

Sialoglycoproteins and N-glycans from secreted exosomes of ovarian carcinoma cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Exosomes consist of vesicles that are secreted by several human cells, including tumor cells and neurons, and they are found in several biological fluids.

Immunosuppressive glycoproteins associate with breast tumor fibrosis and aggression [PDF]

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus, 2022
Tumors feature elevated sialoglycoprotein content. Sialoglycoproteins promote tumor progression and are linked to immune suppression via the sialic acid-Siglec axis.

Hybrid glycophorin GP (A-B) and anti-Ena antibody in a multiparous woman [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Journal of Transfusion Science
The MNS system is a large, complex group of antigens, with 50 antigens at present. The major antigens of the system are carried on glycophorins A and B, which are important red cell sialoglycoproteins.

NEU1 and NEU3 enzymes alter CD22 organization on B cells [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2022
The B cell membrane expresses sialic-acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins, also called Siglecs, that are important for modulating immune response. Siglecs have interactions with sialoglycoproteins found on the same membrane (cis-ligands) that result ...

Screening and Characterization of Sialic Acid-Binding Variable Lymphocyte Receptors from Hagfish [PDF]

open access: yesBioTech
Sialic acid is a diverse group of monosaccharides often found on the termini of N- and O-linked glycans as well as being components of glycoconjugates.

Diagnostic informativeness of markers of bone-tissue metabolism and bone resorption in cows with osteodystrophy

open access: yesRegulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2023
Osteodystrophy is caused by polyetiological factors, the main being disturbance of metabolism of macroelements and D and A vitamins. The disease continues to impose great economic losses on animal husbandry, reduces cattle productivity, and hinders ...

Siglec Ligands

open access: yesCells, 2021
A dense and diverse array of glycans on glycoproteins and glycolipids decorate all cell surfaces. In vertebrates, many of these carry sialic acid, in a variety of linkages and glycan contexts, as their outermost sugar moiety.

Glycosylation of erythrocyte spectrin and its modification in visceral leishmaniasis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Using a lectin, Achatinin-H, having preferential specificity for glycoproteins with terminal 9-O-acetyl sialic acid derivatives linked in α2-6 linkages to subterminal N-acetylgalactosamine, eight distinct disease-associated 9-O-acetylated ...
