Research Article: The Use of the Neoglycolipid-Based Oligosaccharide Microarray System in the Diagnosis of Endometriosis – Preliminary Study
Introduction:
Endometriosis is a gynecological condition, which is defined as endometrium-like lesions outside of the uterus. Its diagnosis still remains a challenge, and there is a demand for developing new biomarkers with satisfactory specificity and sensitivity. Glycomics can be a source of such biomarkers. Almost all proteins associated with cell membranes and human extracellular proteins are glycosylated, and in many diseases there may be changes in glycoprotein connections. Oligosaccharide microarrays revolutionized…
