Core Fucosylation on T cells, Required for Activation of T-cell Receptor Signaling and Induction of Colitis in Mice, is Increased in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.




Attachment of a fucose molecule to the innermost N-glycan in a glycoprotein (core fucosylation) regulates the activity of many growth factor receptors and adhesion molecules. The process is catalyzed by α1-6 fucosyltransferase (FUT8) and required for immune regulation, but it is not clear whether this process is dysregulated during disease pathogenesis. We investigated whether core fucosylation regulates T-cell activation and induction of colitis in mice, and is altered in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
