Abstrakt: A recent study conducted at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has found that targeting branched N-glycans and fucosylation can sensitize ovarian tumors to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). The researchers discovered that inhibiting branched N-glycans increased the sensitivity of HR-proficient epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs) to anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy. Additionally, they observed an enrichment of branched N-glycans on HR-proficient EOCs compared to HR-deficient EOCs. These findings suggest that branched N-glycans could be a promising therapeutic target for overcoming immune evasion in HR-proficient EOCs. [Extracted from the article]
