Sialyltransferase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cancer Metastasis: Current Challenges and Future Perspectives

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Potent, cell-permeable, and subtype-selective sialyltransferase inhibitors represent an attractive family of substances that can potentially be used for the clinical treatment of cancer metastasis.

Sulfonylurea Bioisosteres of Sulfonic Acid in JFD 00458-Based ST6GAL1 Inhibitors Enhance Membrane Permeability. [PDF]

open access: yesChemMedChem
ST6GAL1 sialylates glycoconjugates in the Golgi, modulating immune recognition and enabling tumor immune evasion. To effectively reach ST6GAL1, inhibitors should demonstrate good membrane permeability. Based on nonpermeable hit JFD 00458, we developed sulfonylurea analogs achieving increased membrane permeability and potency.

Protein O-Glycosylation Shapes Lymphatic Endothelia and Lymph Node Macrophage Populations. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
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

ST6Gal1: Oncogenic signaling pathways and targets

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
The Golgi-sialyltransferase ST6Gal1 (βgalactosidase α2,6 sialyltransferase 1), adds the negatively charged sugar, sialic acid, to the terminal galactose of N-glycosylated proteins.

Multi-Faceted Effects of ST6Gal1 Expression on Precursor B-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Normal early human B-cell development from lymphoid progenitors in the bone marrow depends on instructions from elements in that microenvironment that include stromal cells and factors secreted by these cells including the extracellular matrix ...

An efficient and robust HPLC method to determine the sialylation levels of human epithelial cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Sialyltransferase, an enzyme responsible for attaching sialic acid to the cell surface, is reported to play a key role in cancer, making sialyltransferase a potential therapeutic target in drug development. Several methods have been developed to quantify

A glyco-engineering approach for site-specific conjugation to Fab glycans

open access: yesmAbs, 2023
Effective processes for synthesizing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) require: 1) site-specific incorporation of the payload to avoid interference with binding to the target epitope, 2) optimal drug/antibody ratio to achieve sufficient potency while ...

Structural Insights in Mammalian Sialyltransferases and Fucosyltransferases: We Have Come a Long Way, but It Is Still a Long Way Down

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Mammalian cell surfaces are modified with complex arrays of glycans that play major roles in health and disease. Abnormal glycosylation is a hallmark of cancer; terminal sialic acid and fucose in particular have high levels in tumor cells, with positive ...

Comprehensive landscape of the ST3GAL family reveals the significance of ST3GAL6-AS1/ST3GAL6 axis on EGFR signaling in lung adenocarcinoma cell invasion

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Sialylation aberration has been implicated in lung cancer development by altering signaling pathways. Hence, it is urgent to identify key sialyltransferases in the development of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), which is a common malignant subtype of non ...

Lipoprotein sialylation in atherosclerosis: Lessons from mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Sialylation is a dynamically regulated modification, which commonly occurs at the terminal of glycan chains in glycoproteins and glycolipids in eukaryotic cells.
