  • Patent number: 11860165
    Abstract: The present inventors have demonstrated that circulating auto-antibodies to cancer antigens hold promise as specific and sensitive biomarkers for the early detection of cancer. The present invention thus relates to methods of detecting cancer in a sample, comprising utilising a glycopeptide bait derived from human mucins with different cancer-associated O-glycans. Detected antibodies were demonstrated as glycopeptide specific, and it could be discriminated between e.g. colorectal cancer patients and healthy individuals. The inventors have also developed monoclonal antibodies based on the identified glycopeptides epitope baits, and demonstrated differential expression of the relevant target antigens. The invention thus, in a lock and key-based manner includes both glycopeptides and antibody tools for early detection of cancer, as well as methods of using the same for in situ visualisation and treatment of specific cancer types.

  • Publication number: 20190330601
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for display of a plurality of mammalian glycans on cells or proteins for probing biological interactions and identifying glycan structures involved. A plurality of mammalian cells is genetically engineered in a combinatorial approach to differentially express the human glycome. Genetic engineering of the cell produces a plurality isogenic cells with different repertoires of glycosyltransferases and display of glycans that is used to interpret biological interactions. The plurality of engineered cells display glycans with and without the context of specific proteins exogeneously expressed, and is useful for detection and optimization of biological interactions for example binding of lectins, antibodies, viruses and bacteria and glycoproteins.
