TLDR
A bioprocess for the expression of a recombinant MUC1 fusion protein with a cancer associated glycosylation in CHO-K1 cells has been developed, indicating that the desired glycoforms were obtained and suggesting that the recombinantMUC1 protein could be tested for use in immunotherapy.

The ST6GalNAc-I sialyltransferase localizes throughout the golgi and is responsible for the synthesis of the tumor- associated sialyl-Tn O-glycan in human breast cancer

TL;DR: The development of a Chinese hamster ovary cell line expressing Muc1 and ST6GalNAc-I allowed the large scale production of MUC1 carrying 83% sialyl-Tn O-glycans, and the availability of large quantities of this MUC 1 glycoform will allow the evaluation of its efficacy as an immunogen for immunotherapy of M UC1/STn-expressing tumors.

Expression of Tumor-Associated Differentiation Antigens, MUC1 Glycoforms and CEA, in Human Thymic Epithelial Cells: Implications for Self-Tolerance and Tumor Therapy

TL;DR: The findings imply that MUC1 and CEA are amenable to central tolerance induction, which might, however, be incomplete in case of tumor cell-restricted MUC2 glycoforms, and knowledge of these subtleties in promiscuous gene expression may assist the selection of T cell tumor vaccines for clinical trials.

Role of HIF-1alpha in hypoxia-mediated apoptosis, cell proliferation and tumour angiogenesis.

TL;DR: It is shown that hypoxia and hypoglycaemia reduce proliferation and increase apoptosis in wild-type (Hif-1α+/+) embryonic stem (ES) cells, but not in ES cells with inactivated HIF-1 α genes (HIF- 1α−/−), suggesting that there are at least two different adaptive responses to being deprived of oxygen and nutrients.

Molecular cloning and expression of human Tumor-associated Polymorphic Epithelial Mucin

TL;DR: The full sequence for PEM, as deduced from cDNA sequences, is reported, with length variations in the tandem repeat result in PEM being an expressed variable number tandem repeat locus.

Transcription factor HIF-1 is a necessary mediator of the pasteur effect in mammalian cells.

TL;DR: HIF-1 activation is an essential control element of the metabolic state during hypoxia; this requirement has important implications for the regulation of cell growth during development, angiogenesis, and vascular injury.

Industrial choices for protein production by large-scale cell culture.

TL;DR: Traditional barriers to large-scale mammalian culture have now been addressed, with the standard stirred-tank reactor emerging as industry's technology of choice and low-volume reactor technology remains diversified.

Getting the glycosylation right: implications for the biotechnology industry.

TL;DR: The impact of advances in cloning of glycosyltransferase enzymes, in understanding the varied biological functions of carbohydrates, and in the accurate analysis of glycoprotein heterogeneity are discussed.
