• Beschreibung: Lewis Y tetrasaccharide is a type of antigen that is used as a pharmacological agent. It has been shown to be effective in treating carcinoma cell lines and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Lewis Y tetrasaccharide has also been shown to be an antigen for the mouse monoclonal antibody, which is used in cancer research. The Lewis Y tetrasaccharide stimulates the immune system by interacting with certain cells called dendritic cells and macrophages, which are responsible for activating T-cells. This interaction promotes the production of chemoattractant proteins, which are proteins that attract white blood cells to fight infection and promote healing. Lewis Y tetrasaccharide has also been shown to cause cancer cell death by lysing cells through apoptosis or necrosis depending on the tissue type.
