Simple Summary Aberrant glycosylation is a common feature of many cancers, and it plays
crucial roles in tumor development and biology. Cancer progression can be regulated by …

Parasitic helminths (worms) co-evolved with vertebrate immune systems to enable long-term
survival of worms in infected hosts. Among their survival strategies, worms use their glycans …

O-Glycosylation is one of the most important posttranslational modifications of proteins. It
takes part in protein conformation, protein sorting, developmental processes and the …

The investigation of the glycan repertoire of several organisms has revealed a wide variation
in terms of structures and abundance of glycan moieties. Among the parasites, it is possible …

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, with an estimated 19.3 million new cases and
10 million deaths worldwide in 2020 alone. Approximately 2.2 million cancer cases are …

Glycoconjugates play a crucial role in the host-parasite relationships of helminthic infections,
including angiostrongyliasis. It has previously been shown that the antigenicity of proteins …

Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a central nervous system (CNS) infection caused by the
metacestode stage of the parasite Taenia solium. During NCC, the parasites release …

on human glycoproteins is strongly associated with human pathological conditions …

Publisher Summary Helminths are multicellular eukaryotes that have a glycosylation
potential resembling mammalian glycosylation in some ways. They synthesize Nand …

In endemic areas, some parasitic infections may be related to cancer induction or induction
of immune responses against cancer. In some cases, parasites cause disease in their host …
