N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V drives colorectal cancer metastasis by facilitating ZO-1 ubiquitination and degradation

N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V drives colorectal cancer metastasis by facilitating ZO-1 ubiquitination and degradation

In a recent study published in “Cancer Cell International,” Yueping Zhan and others explored the role of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (MGAT5) in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its mechanism in promoting cancer cell metastasis. The publication of this paper is driven by the urgent need to study CRC due to its high mortality and metastatic characte...

Distinct Patterns of Plaque and Microglia Glycosylation in Alzheimer’s Disease

Unique Patterns of Glycosylation in Plaques and Microglia in Alzheimer’s Disease Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and a devastating neurodegenerative disorder. AD is characterized by two pathological features: extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and intracellular phosphorylated Tau neurofibrillary ta...
