Monoclonal antibodies are extensively used as biotherapeutics for treatment of a variety of diseases. Glycosylation of therapeutic antibodies is considered a critical quality attribute as it influences the effector function, circulatory half-life, immunogenicity, and eventually efficacy and patient safety. During upstream process development, media components play a significant role in determining the glycosylation profile.

Prior to mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, pretreatment of low-abundance glycopeptides is vital for identifying protein glycosylation. In this study, we fabricated an environmentally friendly citric-acid-modified cellulose monolith (CCM) characterized by a coral-like porous structure and high-density hydrophilic groups using a thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The CCM production leverages biomass resources, specifically cellulose and citric acid, utilizing TIPS to synthesize continuous porous materials through a straightforward heating and cooling process of polymer solutions.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections in young children, elderly and immunocompromised patients worldwide. The RSV fusion (F) protein, which has 5-6 N-glycosylation sites depending on the strain, is a major target for vaccine development. Two to three of these sites are located in the p27 peptide, which is considered absent in virions.

Background: Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis due to a low early detection rate and a lack of biomarkers. Most of pancreatic cancer is pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Alterations in the N-glycosylation of plasma immunoglobulin G (IgG) have been shown to be closely associated with the onset and development of several cancers and could be used as biomarkers for diagnosis.

Background: Growing evidence suggests that chronic inflammation, resulting from intricate immune system interactions, significantly contributes to the onset of psychiatric disorders. Observational studies have identified a link between immunoglobulin G (IgG) N-glycosylation and various psychiatric conditions, but the causality of these associations remains unclear.
Methods: Genetic variants for IgG N-glycosylation traits and psychiatric disorders were obtained from published genome-wide association studies.
