This invention provides methods and kits for use in diagnosing genetically transmitted diseases that are associated with deficiencies in glycosylation of glycoconjugates such as glycoproteins, glycolipids, and proteoglycans. The methods and kits are also useful for monitoring the course of treatment of diseases that are associated with glycosylation disorders.

International Classification:
C12P019/04 C07H001/00
US Classification:
435101000, 536123120
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and compositions involved in the inflammatory response, as well as various pathological processes. In particular, the present invention provides novel antibodies directed against novel glycans that are enriched on endothelial cell surfaces. In addition, the present invention provides methods and compositions involved in a previously unrecognized pathway of the inflammatory response and various pathological processes. In addition the present invention provides methods and compositions suitable to mediate the inflammatory response in various settings, as well as methods and compositions for the identification of other inflammatory response mediators.

International Classification:
A61K 39/395
US Classification:
4241431, 4241721
Abstract:
Aspects of the present invention relate to molecular biology and medicine. More specifically, some embodiments include methods for treating and/or diagnosing inflammation and/or cancer using agents that inhibit the binding of a pro-inflammatory protein or protein complex (e.g., S100A8 and/or S100A9) to a carboxylated glycan expressed on a myeloid (e.g., MDSC), monocytic, dendritic, endothelial, or tumor cell.

The disclosure provides new compounds and compositions thereof, and methods for treating or ameliorating a disorder relating to CDG-Ia. In particular, the disclosure provides benzoisothiazolone inhibitors of PMI, which have been synthesized and their ability to drive glycosylation has been demonstrated. The disclosure provides two synthetic routes for these compounds, including a new copper-catalyzed N-arylation reaction amenable to parallel derivitization. The disclosed compounds represent potent inhibitors of PMI, and their dose-dependent efficacy in cell-based models of glycosylation have been demonstrated. In addition, the disclosed compounds are selective over PMM and therefore, are useful in treating or ameliorating a disorder relating to CDG-Ia.
This invention provides methods and kits for use in diagnosing genetically transmitted diseases that are associated with deficiencies in glycosylation of glycoconjugates such as glycoproteins, glycolipids, and proteoglycans. The methods and kits are also useful for monitoring the course of treatment of diseases that are associated with glycosylation disorders.
