Abstract
Glycans expand the structural complexity of proteins by several orders of magnitude, resulting in a tremendous analytical challenge when including them in biomedical research. Recent glycobiological research is painting a picture in which glycans represent a crucial structural and functional component of the majority of proteins, with alternative glycosylation of proteins and lipids being an important regulatory mechanism in many biological and pathological processes. Since interindividual differences in glycosylation are extensive, large studies are needed to map the structures and to understand the role of glycosylation in human (patho)physiology. Driven by these challenges, methods have emerged, which can tackle the complexity of glycosylation in thousands of samples, also known as high-throughput (HT) glycomics. For facile dissemination and implementation of HT glycomics technology, the sample preparation, analysis, as well as data mining, need to be stable over a long period of time (months/years), amenable to automation, and available to non-specialized laboratories. Current HT glycomics methods mainly focus on protein N-glycosylation and allow to extensively characterize this subset of the human glycome in large numbers of various biological samples. The ultimate goal in HT glycomics is to gain better knowledge and understanding of the complete human glycome using methods that are easy to adapt and implement in (basic) biomedical research. Aiming to promote wider use and development of HT glycomics, here, we present currently available, emerging, and prospective methods and some of their applications, revealing a largely unexplored molecular layer of the complexity of life.

Multiomics Profiling Reveals Signatures of Dysmetabolism in Urban Populations in Central India. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9071485. [PMID: 34361920 PMCID: PMC8307859 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9071485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2021] [Revised: 06/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have become a major cause of morbidity and mortality in India. Perturbation of host–microbiome interactions may be a key mechanism by which lifestyle-related risk factors such as tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and physical inactivity may influence metabolic health. There is an urgent need to identify relevant dysmetabolic traits for predicting risk of metabolic disorders, such as diabetes, among susceptible Asian Indians where NCDs are a growing epidemic. Methods: Here, we report the first in-depth phenotypic study in which we prospectively enrolled 218 adults from urban and rural areas of Central India and used multiomic profiling to identify relationships between microbial taxa and circulating biomarkers of cardiometabolic risk. Assays included fecal microbiota analysis by 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicon sequencing, quantification of serum short chain fatty acids by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and multiplex assaying of serum diabetic proteins, cytokines, chemokines, and multi-isotype antibodies. Sera was also analysed for N-glycans and immunoglobulin G Fc N-glycopeptides. Results: Multiple hallmarks of dysmetabolism were identified in urbanites and young overweight adults, the majority of whom did not have a known diagnosis of diabetes. Association analyses revealed several host–microbe and metabolic associations. Conclusions: Host–microbe and metabolic interactions are differentially shaped by body weight and geographic status in Central Indians. Further exploration of these links may help create a molecular-level map for estimating risk of developing metabolic disorders and designing early interventions.

Abstract
Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) are the most common group of autoimmune diseases, associated with lymphocyte infiltration and the production of thyroid autoantibodies, like thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb), in the thyroid gland. Immunoglobulins and cell-surface receptors are glycoproteins with distinctive glycosylation patterns that play a structural role in maintaining and modulating their functions. We investigated associations of total circulating IgG and peripheral blood mononuclear cells glycosylation with AITD and the influence of genetic background in a case-control study with several independent cohorts and over 3,000 individuals in total. The study revealed an inverse association of IgG core fucosylation with TPOAb and AITD, as well as decreased peripheral blood mononuclear cells antennary α1,2 fucosylation in AITD, but no shared genetic variance between AITD and glycosylation. These data suggest that the decreased level of IgG core fucosylation is a risk factor for AITD that promotes antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity previously associated with TPOAb levels.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) glycosylation is essential for function of the immune system, but the genetic and environmental factors that underlie its inter-individual variability are not well defined. The Collaborative Cross (CC) genetic resource harnesses over 90% of the common genetic variation of the mouse. By analyzing the IgG glycome composition of 95 CC strains, we made several important observations: (i) glycome variation between mouse strains was higher than between individual humans, despite all mice having the same environmental influences; (ii) five genetic loci were found to be associated with murine IgG glycosylation; (iii) variants outside traditional glycosylation site motifs affected glycome variation; (iv) bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) was produced by several strains although most previous studies have reported the absence of glycans containing the bisecting GlcNAc on murine IgGs; and (v) common laboratory mouse strains are not optimal animal models for studying effects of glycosylation on IgG function.
