The fraction of IgG antibodies with anti-oligomeric Aβ affinity and surface sialic acid was compared between Octagam and Gammagard intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) using two complementary surface plasmon resonance methods. These comparisons were performed to identify if an elevated fraction existed in Gammagard, which reported small putative benefits in a recent Phase III clinical trial for Al...
We measured serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and erythrocyte membrane sialic acid in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and studied their correlation with the disease activity. Serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 level was determined with sandwich ELISA and sialic acid level with the method of Shamberger in 42 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and in 30 hea...
The concentration of plasma sialic acid was estimated using the modified chemical method and the more sensitive enzymatic method in 20 subjects with impaired glucose tolerance and 20 control subjects. The mean sialic acid concentration values of the control subjects and subjects with impaired glucose tolerance using the enzymatic method were 1.747 ± 0.047 and 2.583 ± 0.070 mmole/l and 1.753 ± 0...
The sialic acid of gangliosides not containing GalNAc (i.e., GM3, GD3) is readily hydrolyzed either enzymatically by sialidases or chemically in acid conditions. On the other hand, in gangliosides having the sialic acid on the internal galactose residue linked to GalNAc (i.e., GM1, GM2) the Neu5Ac is largely resistant to acid or enzymatic hydrolysis. In the present work GM1 (NH4+), GM1(H+), and...
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a fatal demyelinating disease caused by JC virus (JCV) infection of oligodendrocytes, may develop in patients with immune disorders following reactivation of chronic benign infection. Mutations of JCV capsid viral protein 1 (VP1), the capsid protein involved in binding to sialic acid cell receptors, might favor PML onset. Cerebrospinal fluid seq...
BACKGROUND Sialic acid storage diseases (SSDs) are severe autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorders caused by a transport defect across the lysosomal membrane, which leads to accumulation of sialic acid in tissues, fibroblasts, and urine. Defective free sialic acid transport can be established by quantification of free sialic acid in urine. METHODS Urine sample size was adjusted to the ...
Patients with GNE myopathy, a progressive and debilitating disease caused by a genetic defect in sialic acid biosynthesis, rely on supportive care and eventually become wheelchair-bound. To elucidate whether GNE myopathy is treatable at a progressive stage of the disease, we examined the efficacy of sialic acid supplementation on symptomatic old GNE myopathy mice that have ongoing, active muscl...
A general method is described for the radioactive labeling of proteins containing terminal sialic acid in the carbohydrate moieties. Quantitative conversion of these residues to a radioactive 7-carbon analogue of sialic acid was achieved by sequential periodate oxidation and tritiated borohydride reduction. Evidence is presented to establish the identity of the radioactive derivative as 5-aceta...
O acetylation at carbon positions 7 or 9 of the sialic acid residues in the polysialic acid capsule of Escherichia coli K1 is catalyzed by a phase-variable contingency locus, neuO, carried by the K1-specific prophage, CUS-3. Here we describe a novel method for analyzing polymeric sialic acid O acetylation that involves the release of surface sialic acids by endo-N-acetylneuraminidase digestion,...
