BackgroundAge is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS), with immunosenescence–age-related immune system dysfunction - contributing to worse outcomes. ...

Abstract. O-acetylation of sialic acids represents an additional layer of structural diversity and biological complexity, occurring at various hydroxyl pos

PhD Project - (President's Doctoral Scholar Award) A mechanistic understanding of microbe-immune cross talk in the face of pollutant challenge at The University of Manchester, listed on FindAPhD.c...

It is one of the most powerful involuntary actions the human body can perform. But is a big sneeze a sign of illness, pollution or something else entirely?

We study cell migration in health and disease

The xylosyltransferase isoenzymes XT1 and XT2 catalyze the first glycosylation step in the biosynthesis of proteoglycans. Now, bump-and-hole engineering of XT1 and XT2 enables substrate profiling and ...

Colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastases has a particularly poor prognosis. In this KWF-funded project, you will investigate how glycan structures affect immune responses in peritoneal metastasis and whether glycan inhibition can restore anti-tumor immunity.

The rapid, transient, and unpredictable nature of interactions between circulating cells and the endothelium challenges the investigation of these events under flow conditions. Here, we developed an i...

Cancer immunotherapy benefits from antibody-lectin chimeras that block glyco-immune checkpoints.
