Involvement of Aberrant Glycosylation in Thyroid Cancer
Glycosylation is one of the most common posttranslational modification reactions and nearly half of all known proteins in eukaryotes are glycosylated. In fact, changes in oligosaccharides structures are associated with many physiological and pathological events, including cell growth, migration and differentiation, and tumor invasion. Therefore, functional glycomics, which is a comprehensive st...
متن کاملEpigenetic Bases of Aberrant Glycosylation in Cancer
In this review, the sugar portions of glycoproteins, glycolipids, and glycosaminoglycans constitute the glycome, and the genes involved in their biosynthesis, degradation, transport and recognition are referred to as "glycogenes". The extreme complexity of the glycome requires the regulatory layer to be provided by the epigenetic mechanisms. Almost all types of cancers present glycosylation abe...
متن کاملAberrant Glycosylation Augments the Immuno-Stimulatory Activities of Soluble Calreticulin.
Calreticulin (CRT), a luminal resident calcium-binding glycoprotein of the cell, is a tumor-associated antigen involved in tumorigenesis and also an autoantigen targeted by autoantibodies found in patients with various autoimmune diseases. We have previously shown that prokaryotically expressed recombinant murine CRT (rCRT) exhibits strong stimulatory activities against monocytes/macrophages in...
متن کاملAberrant glycosylation of Igg heavy chain in multiple myeloma.
Although the majority of eukaryotic proteins are glycosylated, there is a dearth of knowledge regarding protein sugar moieties and their changes in disease. Most multiple myeloma cases are characterized by production of monoclonal immunoglobulins (Ig). We studied galactosylation and sialylation of IgG heavy chains in 16 patients with IgG myeloma using lectin blotting and densitometry. In compar...
