The clinical role of glycobiology on ovarian cancer progression.
Diverse carbohydrate (glycan) structures are located on lipids and proteins that cover the surface of human cells known as the glycocalyx. Research over many decades have illustrated that the glycan structures located in the glycocalyx change dramatically with cancer contributing to the early development and progression of tumors. New therapeutic and diagnostic applications for cancers based on targeting glycan changes are now in development and in early stage clinical trials. There is an abundance of research for ovarian cancer indicating that certain glycoproteins and glycolipids play major roles in the progression, recurrence, and chemoresistance of this disease. This review is focused on discussion of these biomarkers and how translational medicine for ovarian cancer can be further defined focusing on targeting glycans, glycoproteins, and glycan-mediated interactions.
