Fucosyl GM1 Ganglioside (FucGM1)

Target
FucGM1
Molecular classification
Glycosphingolipid, Ganglioside, Tumor-associated antigen
01

Overview

Fucosyl GM1 ganglioside (FucGM1) is a glycosphingolipid selectively expressed in tumor tissues like SCLC and some NSCLC. It plays a role in cell communication, adhesion, and signaling. FucGM1 serves as both a tumor marker for diagnostic purposes and a target for antibody-based therapies.
