Antibodies have been developed as therapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer, infection, and inflammation. In addition to binding activity toward the target, antibodies also exhibit effector-mediated activities through the interaction of the Fc glycan and the Fc receptors on immune cells. To identify the optimal glycan structures for individual antibodies with desired activity, we have developed an effective method to modify the Fc-glycan structures to a homogeneous glycoform. In this study, it was found that the biantennary N-glycan structure with two terminal alpha-2,6-linked sialic acids is a common and optimized structure for the enhancement of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, complement-dependent cytotoxicity, and antiinflammatory activities.
抗体已被开发用作治疗癌症、感染和炎症的治疗剂。除了对靶标的结合活性外,抗体还通过Fc聚糖与免疫细胞上的Fc受体相互作用表现出效应器介导的活性。为了确定具有所需活性的单个抗体的最佳聚糖结构,我们开发了一种有效的方法,将Fc-聚糖结构修饰为均一的糖型。在本研究中,发现具有两个末端α-2,6-连接唾液酸的双天线N-聚糖结构是增强抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性、补体依赖性细胞毒性和抗炎活性的常见且优化的结构。
