Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The plant antigenic N-glycans from plant glycoproteins have suppressed Th2-type immune responses by Japanese cedar pollen allergen, suggesting that the plant antigenic N-glycans could become effective agents in therapy for patients with pollinosis. In this study, a new method with hydrophilic partitioning was developed to prepare the large-scale of Asn-glycopeptide bearing plant antigenic N-glycans from Ginkgo seeds. And then, plant antigenic N-glycans bearing Lewis a antigen(s) at the non-reducing terminal were found in submerged plants. Finally, the glycol-polymer bearing multivalent plant antigenic N-glycans was synthesized, and the differential inhibition of dendritic cells by the glycol-polymer was analyzed.
