ABSTRACT
Cancer is still one of the most arduous challenges in the human society, even though humans have found many ways to try to conquer it. With our incremental understandings on the impact of sugar on human health, the clinical relevance of glycosylation has attracted our attention. The fact that altered glycosylation profiles reflect and define different health statuses provide novel opportunities for cancer diagnosis and therapeutics. By reviewing the mechanisms and critical enzymes involved in protein, lipid and glycosylation, as well as current use of glycosylation for cancer diagnosis and therapeutics, we identify the pivotal connection between glycosylation and cellular redox status and, correspondingly, propose the use of redox modulatory tools such as cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) in cancer control via glycosylation editing. This paper interrogates the clinical relevance of glycosylation on cancer and has the promise to provide new ideas for laboratory practice of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) and precision oncology therapy.
