During the past few years considerable progress has been made in each of these areas. In
addition, much new information has accumulated on the occurrence of oligosaccharide …

The number of glycan determinants that comprise the human glycome is not known. This
uncertainty arises from limited knowledge of the total number of distinct glycans and glycan …

Considerable advances have been made in recent years in our understanding of the
biochemistry of mucin-type glycoproteins. This class of compounds is characterized mainly …

▪ Abstract Researchers have long predicted that complex carbohydrates on cell surfaces
would play important roles in developmental processes because of the observation that …

Despite advances in stem cell research, cell transplantation therapy for liver failure is
impeded by a shortage of human primary hepatocytes (HPH), along with current …

Publisher Summary Aberrant glycosylation is the most common phenomenon associated
with oncogenic transformation expressed in cell membranes of animal and human cancer …

We describe microarrays of oligosaccharides as neoglycolipids and their robust display on
nitrocellulose. The arrays are sourced from glycoproteins, glycolipids, proteoglycans …

Two monoclonal antibodies (MC631 and MC813‐70) raised against 4‐to 8‐cell stage
mouse embryos and a human teratocarcinoma cell line, respectively, detect the stage …

Adult neural stem cells are rare, and little is known about their unique characteristics,
leaving their in vivo identity enigmatic. We show that Lewis X (LeX), a carbohydrate …

We have analysed the surface antigen phenotype of a human embryonic stem (hES) cell
line (H7) and the changes that occur upon differentiation induced by retinoic acid …
