A multivalent lacto-N-fucopentaose III-lysyllysine conjugate decompacts preimplantation mouse embryos, while the free oligosaccharide is ineffective

چکیده
A multivalent lacto-N-fucopentaose (LNFP) III-lysyllysine conjugate was observed to decompact preimplantation mouse embryos. Decompaction was not obtained with free oligosaccharides (LNFP II and III), nor with multivalent LNFP II-lysyllysine or chitotriose-lysyllysine conjugates. These results suggest a role for X hapten recognition during compaction and suggest further that X hapten valency may play a key role in modulating this developmental process.

Synthesis of the Tolerance-Inducing Oligosaccharide Lacto-N-Fucopentaose III Bearing an Activated Linker
A concise synthetic route to an immunomodulatory pentasaccharide, lacto-N-fucopentaose III (1) and its corresponding human serum albumin conjugate, is described. Key transformations of the strategy include two highly regio- and stereoselective glycosylations for the construction of disaccharide 10 and pentasaccharide 12, a Birch reduction for deprotection of benzyl ethers, and a UV-promoted rad...

Carbohydrates on soluble egg antigens are major epitopes for the antibody responses of patients and mice infected with Schistosoma mansoni. Recently, protective sera of mice vaccinated with irradiated cercariae were shown to recognize carbohydrate epitopes on schistosomal glutathione S-transferase. The present study demonstrates that carbohydrate epitopes are major targets of sera from C57BL/6J...

Two monoclonal antibodies produced by hybridomas obtained from a mouse immunized with a colorectal carcinoma cell line bind specifically to human gastrointestinal cancer cells. The antigen of this antibody in the carcinoma cell line, a monosialoganglioside, has been isolated. Its carbohydrate structure is probably (formula: see text). This oligosaccharide is a sialyl derivative of lacto-N-fucop...
