Multivariate quantitative analysis of glycan impact on IgG1 effector functions by Tamara Cvijić, Matej Horvat, Jakob Plahutnik, Ana Golob, Jaka Marušič

“…Our results show that just a 1% decrease in Fc fucosylation can lead to a more than 25% increase in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The intercorrelated nature of glycan patterns, combined with the low variability and lack of well-defined glycan patterns in process development and manufacture samples, makes studying the effects of individual glycan structures challenging. …”
