Glycosylation, the intricate process of adding carbohydrate motifs to proteins, lipids, and exosomes on the cell surface, is crucial for both physiological and pathological mechanisms. Alterations in glycans significantly affect cancer cell metastasis by mediating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. The subtle changes in glycosylation during malignant transformations highlight the importance of analyzing cell and exosome surface glycosylation for prognostic and early treatment strategies in cancer.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease [MASLD] is a pervasive multifactorial health burden. Post-translational modifications [PTMs] of amino acid residues in protein domains demonstrate pivotal roles for imparting dynamic alterations in the cellular micro milieu. The crux of identifying novel druggable targets relies on comprehensively studying the etiology of metabolic disorders.

Glycans are known to be fundamental for many cellular and physiological functions. Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) currently encompassing over 160 subtypes, are characterized by glycan synthesis and/or processing defects. Despite the increasing number of CDG patients, therapeutic options remain very limited as our knowledge on glycan synthesis is fragmented.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the main histological subtype of lung cancer. For locally advanced and advanced NSCLC, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-targeted therapy has been the first choice for NSCLC patients with EGFR mutations. TKIs, as targeted drugs, inhibit kinase activity and autophosphorylation by competitively binding to the ATP binding site of the EGFR tyrosine kinase domain, which blocks the signal transduction mediated by EGFR and thus inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells.

Inflammatory bowel disease is triggered by abnormalities in epithelial barrier function and immunological responses, although its pathogenesis is poorly understood. The dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)-induced colitis model has been used to examine inflammation in the colon. Damage to mucosa primality occurs in the large intestine and scarcely in the small intestine.
