VSIG, IgG Superfamily Members: Data Supports their Potential as Immunotherapeutic Drug Targets
V-Set and Immunoglobulin domain containing (VSIG) proteins, such as VSIG-9/TIGIT and VSIG4, are recognized for their immunomodulatory function. Novel data from R&D Systems scientists suggest that other members of the VSIG class have similar activities and may represent novel immunotherapy drug targets. See the VSIG Data!

A New and Specific Technique for Detecting Glycans on Fixed Cells
Scientists from R&D Systems have published a new paper highlighting a way to assess specific glycosylation patterns on fixed cells using fluorescence microscopy. This new technique overcomes specificity and sensitivity issues that plague commonly used methods.

Enhancing Cell Therapies using Cellular Glycoengineering to Promote Homing
A recent Harvard study suggests that enhancing cell surface sLeX on naïve Treg cells using Fucosyltransferase 7, promotes Treg accumulation at inflammatory sites where they suppress xenogenic GVHD disease. Similar results have also been obtained for B cells and MSCs. It is suggested this novel technique might greatly decrease the required therapeutic dose and help mitigate off-target effects.
