During the past three decades, the sugar moiety of complex carbohydrates has been found to be involved in important interactions of immunological specificity of antigens and to participate in a variety of cellular functions. The long polysaccharide side chains of the lipopolysaccharides on the outer membrane of Gram negative organisms provide surface antigens for differential serodiagnosis. Bacterial surface lectins are important in mediating the attachment of bacteria to host cells in the of infectious diseases. The carbohydrate pathogenesis moieties of cell surface glycoconjugates (glycoproteins and glycolipids) of mammals are the sites for intercellular recognition and for the regulatory molecular interactions such as interaction of complex carbohydrate with hormones or hepatic lectins. The carbohydrate side chains of many complex carbohydrates play essential roles as antigenic determinants b of human blood group ABH, Lea, Le , I, and i activities, as the Forssman specific determinant, and as tumor associated antigenic determinants. Prompted by these and other advances in the field, a Symposium on Molecular Immunology of Complex Carbohydrates was organized as a satellite meeting of the 8th International Glycoconjugate Conference held on September 8- 13, 1985, in Houston, Texas, U. S . A. Many eminent scientists contributed their knowledge at this meeting. The lecture and poster materials of the symposium are contained in this proceeding book, which is divided into four Sections and one Appendix. Section I is entitled Antibody Specificity, Epitope, and Lectinology. Dr. Elvin A.

I organized this symposium, "Molecular Immunology of Complex Carbohydrates-2 (MICC-2)," at the Institute of Biological Chemistry, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan th between August 28-September 2, 1999, as a satellite meeting of the 15 International Glycoconjugate Conference (held August 22-27 in Tokyo, Japan). I also held a Taiwan- Canada Glycobiology Workshop after this meeting at the Institutes of Biological Chemistry and Chemistry. To promote glycobiology in Taiwan, I offered a Complexs Carbohydrate & Medicine-2 workshop at the Glyco- Research Laboratory, College of Medicine, Chang- Gung University, Kwei-san, Tao-yuan, Taiwan before the MICC-2 symposium. The lecture and poster materials of these three meetings are collected in these proceedings, which are divided into five Sections and two Appendixes. Section I, entitled "Protein-Carbohydrate Interactions of Plant and Animal Lectins," provides current concepts of lectin-carbohydrate interactions; classification of lectins, based on amino acid sequences, molecular structures, and lectin affinity for carbohydrates.However, the relationships between amino acid sequences and carbohydrate affinity of lectins have to be more thoroughly characterized. The reviews on animal lectins in this Section explore new areas of lectins. Section II, "Aspects of Structure and Antigenicity of Glycoconjugates," provides important information on structural concepts of glyco- immunology. "Glycotope Expression (Glycosylation), Metabolism and Functions," which play important roles in life processes, are discussed in Section III. Four articles on advances in knowledge on structural roles of glycans and treatment of cancer are discussed in Section IV.

This book covers the expanding landscape of glycoscience over the past decade from the earlier books titled “The Molecular Immunology of Complex Carbohydrates 1, 2, and 3”. It aims to provide systematic and comprehensive reviews of the glycoscience field. In addition to the diverse roles of glycans in the immune system, this volume broadens its scope to encompass (i) human glycoscience across multiple systems of the human body—most notably the nervous system, influencing both physiological processes like neuronal axon generation and pathological conditions like Alzheimer's disease, (ii) microbial glycoscience, and (iii) environmental glycoscience. Moreover, significant attention is given to the current and emerging (iv) applications of glycoscience in biotechnology and chemical technology. Comprised of 36 chapters and authored by 89 internationally recognized experts in addition to one author, who worked on the proofs of his late mother, this book provides a wide-ranging and in-depth exploration of glycan biosynthesis and structure, extending to their functional significance in various human biological systems and microbial physiology. It offers detailed insights into complex biological interactions—not only cell–cell recognition and communication, but also the dynamic relationships between host and microbe, human and food or pollen, and even cross-reactivities between foods and pollens. This book highlights modern biotechnology and chemical innovation in glycan-based and glycan-binding protein (lectin)-based syntheses and applications of glycans and lectins in detection, diagnosis, prevention, and therapy of physiological and pathogenic diseases. Cutting-edge examples of glycan- and lectin-based strategies in vaccine development and biomedical research are also thoroughly presented. Enriched with numerous explanatory illustrations and extensively referenced with foundational and recent literatures, this work constitutes a valuable resource for students, early-career scientists, researchers, clinicians, and specialists engaged in the life sciences and medicine.
