Specific inhibitors of the glycosylation of O-glycosidically linked glycoproteins have not previously been described. When tested for their effects on mucin glycosylation in a mucin-producing colon cancer cell line, LS174T, benzyl-, phenyl-, and p-nitrophenyl-N-acetyl-alpha-galactosaminide inhibited the formation of fully glycosylated

Recent researches found that an abundant production of mucin protein well correlates with tumor cell metastasis. This study was to investigate inhibitory effect of benzyl-alpha-GalNAc on production of mucin 1 (MUC1), and on adhesion and invasion of breast cancer cell
