Molecular Glycobiology of Sialylglycan-Xenoantigenic Determinants in Pig to Human Xenotransplantation

During the past two decades, glycobiology has hugely been developed in its biological significance and biological diversity. The glycobiology is specifically involved in cell-cell interaction, cell differentiation, receptor-mediated targeting, molecular recognition and transplantation. The scope of the present new book is narrow, focusing on carbohydrate antigens including sialic acids as xenoantigenic determinant in human.
