What are the Applications of Glycosylation Studies in Histology?
Studying glycosylation in histology has several applications: - Disease Diagnosis: Abnormal glycosylation patterns can serve as biomarkers for diseases like cancer. - Therapeutics: Understanding glycosylation can help in the development of glyco-engineered therapeutic proteins. - Vaccine Development: Glycosylation is important in the design of vaccines, as it affects antigen recognition by the immune system.
