The Role of Non-Human Sialic Acid Neu5Gc-Containing Glycoconjugates in Human Tumors: A Review of Clinical and Experimental Evidence
N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is a sialic acid variant commonly found in most mammals but not synthesized by humans due to an inactivating mutation in the CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase (<i>CMAH</i>) gene. Despite this, Neu5Gc-containing molecules are consistently detected in human tissues,...
