Core Tip Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide, yet it is still poorly diagnosed. Glycans are emerging as sensitive and simple biomarkers of various malignant diseases. Utilizing the cutting-edge N-glycomic analysis, we identified 5 glycans that were significantly different between normal and tumor-bearing rats. An increase in high-mannose structures in HCC rats was observed compared to normal rats. HCC rats showed an increase in both tumor-associated carbohydrates and branched glycans. The changes in glycans correlated with glycan flow changes reported in the glycan biosynthetic pathway, which indicates the importance of enzyme activities involved in glycan synthesis at different subcellular localizations.
