“…Although a 1.5-to 3-fold lower half-life in serum was observed for oligomannose containing antibodies compared to the control antibody in these studies, the 4.6-day (Kanda et al, 2007) and 2.8-to 4-day (Wright et al, 1994(Wright et al, , 1998 half-lives of the oligomannose containing antibodies are still much longer than many non-antibody like glycoproteins with oligomannose residues, which have half-lives of a few minutes (Kogerlberg et al, 2007;Sareneva et al, 1993;Van Patten et al, 2007). The difference in half-lives between antibody and nonantibody like glycoprotein with oligomannose residues prompted us to compare their binding to mannose receptor (Jones et al, 2007;Su et al, 2005). Interestingly, the results from the current study show much less binding of an antibody with Man9 glycans to mannose receptor compared (Van Patten et al, 2007).…”
