Application

Glycolylneuraminic acid, a component of non-human milk and colostrums, is used as a reference to analyse changes of the glycome during lactation. Glycolylneuraminic acid, a xenoantigen, is involved in antigenic reactions (antibody-mediated hyperacute rejection) during xenotransplantion.

The relative contribution of N-glycoloyl-beta-D-neuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) to total sialic acids expressed in mouse and rat liver glycoconjugates was found to be 95% and 11%, respectively. This considerable difference in sialic acid composition made these two tissues suitable models for

The nonhuman sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is metabolically incorporated into human tissues from certain mammalian-derived foods, and this occurs in the face of an anti-Neu5Gc "xeno-autoantibody" response. Given evidence that this process contributes to chronic inflammation in some diseases
