Human thymic epithelial cells express an endogenous lectin, galectin-1, which binds to core 2 O-glycans on thymocytes and T lymphoblastoid cells. [PDF]
Thymic epithelial cells play a crucial role in the selection of developing thymocytes. Thymocyte-epithelial cell interactions involve a number of adhesion molecules, including members of the integrin and immunoglobulin superfamilies.

Screening colorectal tumors for glycoproteins linked to disease progression has revealed several potential therapeutic targets. The secretin receptor (SCTR), identified as a marker of poor prognosis and metastasis in colorectal cancer, has been shown to be a key carrier of N‐glycans with sialylated Lewis antigens. These cancer‐specific glycoproteoforms

Fucosylation of LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 by FUT1 correlates with lysosomal positioning and autophagic flux of breast cancer cells. [PDF]
Alpha1,2-fucosyltransferases, FUT1 and FUT2, which transfer fucoses onto the terminal galactose of N-acetyl-lactosamine via α1,2-linkage have been shown to be highly expressed in various types of cancers.

Lysosomal membrane permeabilization is an early event in sigma-2 receptor ligand mediated cell death in pancreatic cancer [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sigma-2 receptor ligands have been studied for treatment of pancreatic cancer because they are preferentially internalized by proliferating cells and induce apoptosis.

Know Your ABCs: Discovery, Differentiation, and Targeting of T‐Bet+ B Cells
ABSTRACT Since their first description in 2008, T‐bet+ B cells have emerged as a clinically important B cell subset. Now commonly known as ABCs (Age‐associated B Cells), they are uniquely characterized by their expression of the transcription factor T‐bet. Indeed, this singular factor defines this B cell subset.

BackgroundHumans are genetically defective in synthesizing the common mammalian sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), but can metabolically incorporate it from dietary sources (particularly red meat and milk) into glycoproteins and glycolipids ...

Unveiling VCAM‐1’s Multifaceted Role in Secondary Diabetic Complications
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by sustained hyperglycemia, tightly interlinked with a range of severe secondary complications. Diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and cardiomyopathy substantially contribute to the overall morbidity and mortality associated with diabetes.

Summary: Neuraminidase 1 (NEU1) cleaves terminal sialic acids from sialoglycoproteins in endolysosomes and at the plasma membrane. As such, NEU1 regulates immune cells, primarily those of the monocytic lineage.
