Core Tip This study is the first to report that the tumor-suppressive function of the key glycoprotein podoplanin (PDPN) depends strictly on its intact O-glycosylation. When T-synthase deficiency leads to Tn antigen exposure, abnormal PDPN O-glycosylation occurs, resulting in decreased protein stability and functional loss, thereby abolishing the inhibitory effects of PDPN on cell proliferation and migration. These findings provide a new theoretical foundation for the use of glycosylation-dependent PDPN as a prognostic biomarker and targeted therapeutic strategy.
