Abstract
Disruption of the glycosylation machinery is a common feature in many types of cancer, and colorectal cancer (CRC) is no exception. Core fucosylation is mediated by the enzyme fucosyltransferase 8 (FucT-8), which catalyzes the addition of α1,6-l-fucose to the innermost GlcNAc residue of N-glycans. We and others have documented the involvement of FucT-8 and core-fucosylated proteins in CRC progression, in which we addressed core fucosylation in the syngeneic CRC model formed by SW480 and SW620 tumor cell lines from the perspective of alterations in their N-glycosylation profile and protein expression as an effect of the knockdown of the FUT8 gene that encodes FucT-8. Using label-free, semiquantitative mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, we found noticeable differences in N-glycosylation patterns in FUT8-knockdown cells, affecting core fucosylation and sialylation, the Hex/HexNAc ratio, and antennarity. Furthermore, stable isotopic labeling of amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based proteomic screening detected the alteration of species involved in protein folding, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi post-translational stabilization, epithelial polarity, and cellular response to damage and therapy. This data is available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD050012. Overall, the results obtained merit further investigation to validate their feasibility as biomarkers of progression and malignization in CRC, as well as their potential usefulness in clinical practice.

Abstract
Understanding the biological role of protein-linked glycans requires the reliable identification of glycans. Isomer separation and characterization often entail mass spectrometric detection preceded by high-performance chromatography on porous graphitic carbon. To this end, stable isotope-labeled glycans have emerged as powerful tools for retention time normalization. Hitherto, such standards were obtained by chemoenzymatic or purely enzymatic methods, which introduce, e.g., 13C-containing N-acetyl groups or galactose into native glycans. Glycan release with anhydrous hydrazine opens another route for heavy isotope introduction via concomitant de-N-acetylation. Here, we describe that de-N-acetylation can also be achieved with hydrazine hydrate, which is a more affordable and less hazardous reagent. Despite the slower reaction rate, complete conversion is achievable in 72 h at 100 °C for glycans with biantennary glycans with or without sialic acids. Shorter incubation times allow for the isolation of intermediate products with a defined degree of free amino groups, facilitating introduction of different numbers of heavy isotopes. Mass encoded glycans obtained by this versatile approach can serve a broad range of applications, e.g., as internal standards for isomer-specific studies of N-glycans, O-glycans, and human milk oligosaccharide by LC-MS on either porous graphitic carbon or─following permethylation─on reversed phase.

Abstract
Glycoproteomics reveals site-specific O- and N-glycosylation that may influence protein properties including binding, activity and half-life. The increasingly mature toolbox with glycomic- and glycoproteomic strategies is applied for the development of biopharmaceuticals and discovery and clinical evaluation of glycobiomarkers in various disease fields. Notwithstanding the contributions of glycoscience in identifying new drug targets, the current report is focused on the biomarker modality that is of interest for diagnostic and monitoring purposes. To this end it is noted that the identification of biomarkers has received more attention than corresponding quantification. Most analytical methods are very efficient in detecting large numbers of analytes but developments to accurately quantify these have so far been limited. In this perspective a parallel is made with earlier proposed tiers for protein quantification using mass spectrometry. Moreover, the foreseen reporting of multimarker readouts is discussed to describe an individual's health or disease state and their role in clinical decision-making. The potential of longitudinal sampling and monitoring of glycomic features for diagnosis and treatment monitoring is emphasized. Finally, different strategies that address quantification of a multimarker panel will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND N-glycans in glycoproteins can affect physicochemical properties of proteins; however, some reported N-glycan structures are inconsistent depending on the type of glycoprotein or the preparation methods. OBJECTIVE To obtain consistent results for qualitative and quantitative analyses of N-glycans, N-glycans obtained by different preparation methods were compared for two types of mammalian glycoproteins. METHODS N-glycans are released by peptide-N-glycosidase F (PF) or A (PA) from two model mammalian glycoproteins, bovine fetuin (with three glycosylation sites) and human IgG (with a single glycosylation site), and labeled with a fluorescent tag [2-aminobenzamide (AB) or procainamide (ProA)]. The structure and quantity of each N-glycan were determined using UPLC and LC-MS/MS. RESULTS The 21 N-glycans in fetuin and another 21 N-glycans in IgG by either PF-ProA or PA-ProA were identified using LC-MS/MS. The N-glycans in fetuin (8-13 N-glycans were previously reported) and in IgG (19 N-glycans were previously reported), which could not be identified by using the widely used PF-AB, were all identified by using PF-ProA or PA-ProA. The quantities (%) of the N-glycans (>0.1 %) relative to the total amount of N-glycans (100 %) obtained by AB- and ProA-labeling using LC-MS/MS had a similar tendency. However, the absolute quantities (pmol) of the N-glycans estimated using UPLC and LC-MS/MS were more efficiently determined with ProA-labeling than with AB-labeling. Thus, PF-ProA or PA-ProA allows for more effective identification and quantification of N-glycans than PF-AB in glycoprotein, particularly bovine fetuin. This study is the first comparative analysis for the identification and relative and absolute quantification of N-glycans in glycoproteins with PF-ProA and PA-ProA using UPLC and LC-MS/MS.

Abstract
Many analytical challenges in biomedicine arise from the generally high heterogeneity and complexity of glycan- and glycoconjugate-containing samples, which are often only available in minute amounts. Therefore, highly sensitive workflows and detection methods are required. In this review mass spectrometric workflows and detection methods are evaluated for glycans and glycoproteins. Furthermore, glycomic methodologies and innovations that are tailored for enzymatic treatments, chemical derivatization, purification, separation, and detection at high sensitivity are highlighted. The discussion is focused on the analysis of mammalian N-linked and GalNAc-type O-linked glycans.

Abstract
Sialylated and core-fucosylated N-glycans in human transferrin (HTF) are used as glycan biomarkers due to their increased or decreased characteristics in certain diseases. However, their absolute quantities remain unclear. In this study, N-glycans of HTF were identified by UPLC and LC-MS/MS using fluorescence tags [2-aminobenzamide (AB) and procainamide (ProA)] and columns [HILIC and anion exchange chromatography-HILIC (AXH)]. The structures of 14 (including five core-fucosylated) N-glycans in total comprising two non-, six mono-, four di-, and two tri-sialylated N-glycans were identified. The quantities (%) of each N-glycan relative to the total N-glycans (100%) were obtained. HILIC and AXH were better for peak identification and separability except for desialylation, respectively. Specifically, sialylated (in ProA-HILIC and ProA-AXH by UPLC or LC-MS/MS) and core-fucosylated (in AB-HILIC and ProA-AXH by UPLC) N-glycans were efficiently identified. Seven neuraminidase-treated (including three core-fucosylated) N-glycans were efficiently identified in ProA-AXH, even their poor separation. Additionally, ProA-AXH was more efficient for the estimation of the absolute quantities of N-glycans from the results of fluorescence intensity (by UPLC) and relative quantity (by LC-MS/MS). These results first demonstrate that ProA is useful for identifying and quantifying sialylated, core-fucosylated, and neuraminidase-treated desialylated N-glycans in HTF using AXH by UPLC and LC/MS.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for approximately 18 million deaths in 2017. Coronary artery disease is the predominant cause of death from CVD, followed by stroke. Owing to recent technological advancements, glycans and glycosylation patterns of proteins have been investigated in association with CVD risk factors and clinical events. These studies have found significant associations of glycans as biomarkers of systemic inflammation and major CVD risk factors and events. While more limited, studies have also shown that glycans may be useful for monitoring response to anti-inflammatory therapies and may be responsive to changes in lifestyle, particularly in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases. Glycans capture summative risk information related to inflammatory, immune, and signaling pathways and are promising biomarkers for CVD risk prediction and therapeutic monitoring.

Abstract
This review is the ninth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2016. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. Topics covered in the first part of the review include general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation and arrays. The second part of the review is devoted to applications to various structural types such as oligo- and poly-saccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals. Much of this material is presented in tabular form. The third part of the review covers medical and industrial applications of the technique, studies of enzyme reactions and applications to chemical synthesis. The reported work shows increasing use of combined new techniques such as ion mobility and the enormous impact that MALDI imaging is having. MALDI, although invented over 30 years ago is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and range of applications show no sign of deminishing. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Glycans are major constituents of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Alterations in the glycosylation pathway are a common feature of cancer cells, which gives rise to de novo or increased synthesis of particular glycans. Therefore, glycans and glycoproteins have been widely used in the clinic as both stratification and prognosis cancer biomarkers. Interestingly, several of the known tumor-associated glycans have already been identified in cancer EVs, highlighting EV glycosylation as a potential source of circulating cancer biomarkers. These particles are crucial vehicles of cell–cell communication, being able to transfer molecular information and to modulate the recipient cell behavior. The presence of particular glycoconjugates has been described to be important for EV protein sorting, uptake and organ-tropism. Furthermore, specific EV glycans or glycoproteins have been described to be able to distinguish tumor EVs from benign EVs. In this review, the application of EV glycosylation in the development of novel EV detection and capture methodologies is discussed. In addition, we highlight the potential of EV glycosylation in the clinical setting for both cancer biomarker discovery and EV therapeutic delivery strategies.

Abstract
Over the past decades, the genome and proteome have been widely explored for biomarker discovery and personalized medicine. However, there is still a large need for improved diagnostics and stratification strategies for a wide range of diseases. Post-translational modification of proteins by glycosylation affects protein structure and function, and glycosylation has been implicated in many prevalent human diseases. Numerous proteins for which the plasma levels are nowadays evaluated in clinical practice are glycoproteins. While the glycosylation of these proteins often changes with disease, their glycosylation status is largely ignored in the clinical setting. Hence, the implementation of glycomic markers in the clinic is still in its infancy. This is for a large part caused by the high complexity of protein glycosylation itself and of the analytical techniques required for their robust quantification. Mass spectrometry-based workflows are particularly suitable for the quantification of glycans and glycoproteins, but still require advances for their transformation from a biomedical research setting to a clinical laboratory. In this review, we describe why and how glycomics is expected to find its role in clinical tests and the status of current mass spectrometry-based methods for clinical glycomics.

Abstract
The initial part of this review details the controversy behind the use of a serological level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) for the diagnostics of prostate cancer (PCa). Novel biomarkers are in demand for PCa diagnostics, outperforming traditional PSA tests. The review provides a detailed and comprehensive summary that PSA glycoprofiling can effectively solve this problem, thereby considerably reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies. In addition, PSA glycoprofiling can serve as a prognostic PCa biomarker to identify PCa patients with an aggressive form of PCa, avoiding unnecessary further treatments which are significantly life altering (incontinence or impotence).

Abstract
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a stressor-related disorder that develops in a subset of individuals exposed to a traumatic experience. Factors associated with vulnerability to PTSD are still not fully understood. PTSD is frequently comorbid with various psychiatric and somatic disorders, moderate response to treatment and remission rates. The term "theranostics" combines diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy and offers targeted therapy based on specific analyses. Theranostics, combined with novel techniques and approaches called "omics", which integrate genomics, transcriptomic, proteomics and metabolomics, might improve knowledge about biological underpinning of PTSD, and offer novel therapeutic strategies. The focus of this review is on metabolomic and glycomic data in PTSD. Metabolomics evaluates changes in the metabolome of an organism by exploring the set of small molecules (metabolites), while glycomics studies the glycome, a complete repertoire of glycan structures with their functional roles in biological systems. Both metabolome and glycome reflect the physiological and pathological conditions in individuals. Only a few studies evaluated metabolic and glycomic changes in patients with PTSD. The metabolomics studies in PTSD patients uncovered different metabolites that might be associated with psychopathological alterations in PTSD. The glycomics study in PTSD patients determined nine N-glycan structures and found accelerated and premature aging in traumatized subjects and subjects with PTSD based on a GlycoAge index. Therefore, further larger studies and replications are needed. Better understanding of the biological basis of PTSD, including metabolomic and glycomic data, and their integration with other "omics" approaches, might identify new molecular targets and might provide improved therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
The diversification of the chemical properties and biological functions of proteins is attained through posttranslational modifications, such as glycosylation. Glycans, which are covalently attached to proteins, play a vital role in cell activities. The microheterogeneity and complexity of glycan structures associated with proteins make comprehensive glycomic analysis challenging. However, recent advancements in mass spectrometry (MS), separation techniques, and sample preparation methods have primarily facilitated structural elucidation and quantitation of glycans. This review focuses on describing recent advances in MS-based techniques used for glycomic analysis (2012-2018), including ionization, tandem MS, and separation techniques coupled with MS. Progress in glycomics workflow involving glycan release, purification, derivatization, and separation will also be highlighted here. Additionally, the recent development of quantitative glycomics through comparative and multiplex approaches will also be described.

Abstract
Previous studies on the large-scale glycomics of more than 3500 human serum samples revealed that the serum glycoproteins of cancer patients often have more dominant and specific glycoforms, namely, branched tri- and tetra-antennary N-glycans, most cancer patient groups than normal control groups. We herein established an efficient synthetic protocol of glycopeptides having highly complicated N-glycan structures that may be generated by direct tryptic digestion of serum glycoproteins. A preliminary selected reaction monitoring (SRM) assay using the synthetic model glycopeptide 1, 40Ser-Val-Gln-Glu-Ile-Gln-Ala-Thr-Phe-Phe-Tyr-Phe-Thr-Pro-Asn-Lys-Thr-Glu-Asp-Thr-Ile-Phe-Leu-Arg63 having an asialo tri-antennary N-glycan at the Asn54 residue as a designated calibration standard allowed for the rapid and absolute quantitation of the tryptic fragment derived from the serum α1-acid glycoprotein carrying a focused N-glycoform of cancer patients and healthy controls in a range between 200 and 1600 fmole μL-1 without any enrichment process for the target glycoprotein.

Abstract
Glycomic and glycoproteomic analyses involve the characterization of oligosaccharides (glycans) conjugated to proteins. Glycans are produced through a complicated nontemplate driven process involving the competition of enzymes that extend the nascent chain. The large diversity of structures, the variations in polarity of the individual saccharide residues, and the poor ionization efficiencies of glycans all conspire to make the analysis arguably much more difficult than any other biopolymer. Furthermore, the large number of glycoforms associated with a specific protein site makes it more difficult to characterize than any post-translational modification. Nonetheless, there have been significant progress, and advanced separation and mass spectrometry methods have been at its center and the main reason for the progress. While glycomic and glycoproteomic analyses are still typically available only through highly specialized laboratories, new software and workflow is making it more accessible. This review focuses on the role of mass spectrometry and separation methods in advancing glycomic and glycoproteomic analyses. It describes the current state of the field and progress toward making it more available to the larger scientific community.

Abstract
It is now acknowledged that extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important effectors in a vast number of biological processes through intercellular transfer of biomolecules. Increasing research efforts in the EV field have yielded an appreciation for the potential role of glycans in EV function. Indeed, recent reports show that the presence of glycoconjugates is involved in EV biogenesis, in cellular recognition and in the efficient uptake of EVs by recipient cells. It is clear that a full understanding of EV biology will require researchers to focus also on EV glycosylation through glycomics approaches. This review outlines the major glycomics techniques that have been applied to EVs in the context of the recent findings. Beyond understanding the mechanisms by which EVs mediate their physiological functions, glycosylation also provides opportunities by which to engineer EVs for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Studies characterising the glycan composition of EVs have highlighted glycome changes in various disease states, thus indicating potential for EV glycans as diagnostic markers. Meanwhile, glycans have been targeted as molecular handles for affinity-based isolation in both research and clinical contexts. An overview of current strategies to exploit EV glycosylation and a discussion of the implications of recent findings for the burgeoning EV industry follows the below review of glycomics and its application to EV biology.

Abstract
Using our recently developed high-throughput automated platform, N-glycans from all serum glycoproteins from patients with breast cancer were analysed at diagnosis, after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and up to 3 years after surgery. Surprisingly, alterations in the serum N-glycome after chemotherapy were pro-inflammatory with an increase in glycan structures associated with cancer. Surgery, on the other hand, induced anti-inflammatory changes in the serum N-glycome, towards a noncancerous phenotype. At the time of first follow-up, glycosylation in patients with affected lymph nodes changed towards a malignant phenotype. C-reactive protein showed a different pattern, increasing after first line of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, then decreasing throughout treatment until 1 year after surgery. This may reflect a switch from acute to chronic inflammation, where chronic inflammation is reflected in the serum after the acute phase response subsides. In conclusion, we here present the first time-course serum N-glycome profiling of patients with breast cancer during and after treatment. We identify significant glycosylation changes with chemotherapy, surgery and follow-up, reflecting the host response to therapy and tumour removal.
