1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Traditional production of therapeutic glycoproteins relies on mammalian cell culture technology. Glycoproteins produced by mammalian cells invariably display N-glycan heterogeneity resulting in a mixture of glycoforms the composition of which varies from production batch to production batch. However, extent and type of N-glycosylation has a profound impact on the therapeutic properties of many commercially relevant therapeutic proteins making control of N-glycosylation an emerging field of high importance. We have employed a combinatorial library approach to generate glycoengineered Pichia pastoris strains capable of displaying defined human-like N-linked glycans at high uniformity. The availability of these strains allows us to elucidate the relationship between specific N-linked glycans and the function of glycoproteins. The aim of this study was to utilize this novel technology platform and produce two human-like N-linked glycoforms of recombinant human lactoferrin (rhLF), sialylated and non-sialylated, and to evaluate the effects of terminal N-glycan structures on in vitro secondary humoral immune responses. Lactoferrin is considered an important first line defense protein involved in protection against various microbial infections. Here, it is established that glycoengineered P. pastoris strains are bioprocess compatible. Analytical protein and glycan data are presented to demonstrate the capability of glycoengineered P. pastoris to produce fully humanized, active and immunologically compatible rhLF. In addition, the biological activity of the rhLF glycoforms produced was tested in vitro revealing the importance of N-acetylneuraminic (sialic) acid as a terminal sugar in propagation of proper immune responses.
