Sialyl Transferase in Human Semen [PDF]
The activity of the enzyme sialyl transferase, which is responsible for the transfer of sialic acid, has been examined in the following human seminal plasma: (1) originating from semen with sperm counts above 30 X 10(6)/ml and exhibiting normal values of other andrological parameters; (2) from semen with sperm counts below 25 X 10(6)/ml and with other ...

Ischaemic stroke is characterised by acute cerebrovascular occlusion and blood–brain barrier (BBB) breakdown. Our results indicated that the histone deacetylase inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) ameliorated the loss of BBB integrity, changed the morphology of brain endothelial cells, increased the level of basement membrane and ...

Protein O‐Glycosylation Shapes Lymphatic Endothelia and Lymph Node Macrophage Populations
To study the functional roles of O‐glycans on lymphatic endothelia, we deleted Cosmc, the chaperone required for core‐1 O‐glycan synthesis. Loss of core‐1 O‐glycans entailed major changes in glycoprotein composition of lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC), including reduced podoplanin (Pdpn), CD44, and Lyve‐1, and increased ICAM‐1; reduced CD44 was caused

E-cadherin sialylation status.
Immunoprecipitation of E-cadherin followed by α2,6- or α2,3-sialylation recognition using Sambucus nigra agglutinin (A) or Maackia amurensis lectin II (MAL-II) (B) lectins, respectively.

Using Synthetic Glycans to Investigate Anti‐Glycan Antibodies and Explore Their Medical Potential
Anti‐glycan antibodies are essential in health and disease. Access to novel glycan structures paves the way for progress in antibody profiling for biomarker discovery, antibody development, and vaccine design. We summarize the strategies to synthesize and utilize synthetic glycans for the development and application of anti‐glycan antibodies in basic ...

Biological function of sialic acid and sialylation in human health and disease
Sialic acids are predominantly found at the terminal ends of glycoproteins and glycolipids and play key roles in cellular communication and function. The process of sialylation, a form of post-translational modification, involves the covalent attachment ...
