Therapy-induced remodeling of IgG and plasma N-glycans in breast cancer

IgG glycosylation patterns change in a treatment-specific manner during chemotherapy, potentially reflecting immune modulation. Plasma glycan traits are more stable but may reflect tumor burden. These results support the potential of glycan profiling as a biomarker for monitoring the impact of therapy and disease progression in breast cancer.

Abstract

IgG glycosylation patterns change in a treatment-specific manner during chemotherapy, potentially reflecting immune modulation. Plasma glycan traits are more stable but may reflect tumor burden. These results support the potential of glycan profiling as a biomarker for monitoring the impact of therapy and disease progression in breast cancer.
