01

Overview

A novel glycosylated epitope on the cancer cell surface refers to a unique carbohydrate structure (glycoepitope) present on proteins or lipids that is specifically altered or overexpressed in cancer cells compared to normal tissues. These epitopes are often the result of aberrant glycosylation, a hallmark of malignant transformation. They contribute to tumor progression, metastasis, immune evasion, and modulation of receptor signaling and adhesion molecule function. Tumor-restricted glycoepitopes serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for monoclonal antibody-based therapies.
