Ahhh Carolyn Bertozzi is my new hero. I watched her seminar on ibioseminar about glycobiology and it was absolutely amazing. Let alone the fact that she has a very good way to explain complex concepts, her studies on sugar is brilliant. Her work on bioorthogonal chemistry and using this chemistry to tag and visualise sugar on the cell surface is a masterpiece. She may just well be the winner of this year Nobel Prize in Chemistry (but of course, CRISPR-cas is a huge thing to consider too).

It's not even the sugars we can see, like what people might add to coffee, which is a minor amount of our daily sugar intake ,that is key to the sugar. It's the sugar we can not see, added to everything from soup, sauces, soda drinks, salad dressings and gravy packets we have to worry about. It suppresses leptin which tells the body "I'm full" and that is a good business model. Consumers are being fattened up like feedlot animals, for corporate profits. When it comes to drinks I stick to water, tea and coffee (without sugar) with the caveat that some forms tea and coffee are more sugarated than most people realise. Looking at you iced coffee.

As she never mentioned any distinguishing of group vs type in regards to blood, nor the rh factor at all, my guess would be she has not done any 'drill down' research in this area.

Is there a way we can lessen the layer of Sialic acid on our cells ? What specifically causes the build up of it ?

@science75902

Жыл бұрын

I’m not sure about the build-up of sialic acids. But here’s a “fun fact”: the influenza virus expresses a neuraminidase/sialidase (the N for example in H1N1), which cuts sialic acids to set free its offspring from the cell surface. So maybe we could use sialidase to reduce the sialic acid coating on cells. But still the problem remains, how to specifically target the Tumor cells.

This is similar to Staphylococcus aureus cells, that they coat themselves in hyaluronic acid molecules, thus hyaluronic acid binding peptides (hyaladherins) can be used in therapy. I would be interested if silicic acid, hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid and other glycogens would signal various things such as angiogenesis in addition to immunological resistance.

@science75902

Жыл бұрын

There’s no difference between sialic acids of a cancer cell and of a healthy cell. But cancer cells sometimes have way higher levels of sialic acids on their surface. So we would need a drug, which only activates the immune system, when a certain threshold of sialic acid expression on the cell surface is reached.

So, should we cut down the amount of sugar we consume?

High dose vitamins , all of them, boost the immune system, I helped a 70 old lady w / lymphoma get over it with high dose broad spectrum vitamins. And it didn't take as long as I thought. She was on toxic chemo too, and I thought that would prevent the vitamins from working, but it didn't, without the vitamins, on just chemo, she got down to 85 lbs and lost her hair and hearing and wouldn't eat, but on the vitamins, she gained an appetite, and improved much faster than I thought.

@science75902

Yes, it is. One figurative example: there are human and avian influenza strains. They most of the time can only infect human or bird cells. This is due to the receptors which they use to attach to and infect cells: with their surface protein they attach to sialic acids. Humans and birds express different kinds of sialic acids, that’s why normally an avian influenza strain cannot infect humans. But: pigs express both sialic acids which can be used for attachment of avian AND human influenza strains. So they can be infected by both at the same time, then recombine to completely new strains which can infect both birds and humans!

Maybe mutations? Or kind of a positive selection process? Cancer cells with higher expression levels rather stay undetected by the immune system than cancer cells with lower levels of sialic acids on their surface.

I just can't believe that even my immune cells are sugar addicts..

Well if cancer is actually a coordinated response, then for the time being the immune system and cancer cell would want to have a handshake moment and that may be sialic acid. It’s been 6 years and that penicillin moment seems to have gone. Maybe we are closer to the point of recognizing killing cancer cells is not the solution. It’s also very strange that cancer tends to stay put for years, instead of growing out of control, like either the immune system is actually doing it’s job or the cancer knows not to grow out of bounds. I suppose the euphemism is ‘benign tumor’.

It would be wonderful if antibodies that detect sugar changes on the surface of cancer cells could be used in early detection of cancer. In addition, a poison could be attached to a cancer detecting antibody that might kill the cancer cell.

and of course profit comes first !
