Abstract

Advances in genomics and bioinformatics facilitated identification of tumor-specific neoantigens as optimal targets for cancer immunotherapy. In this hot topic, most efforts focus on mutant peptide antigens, overlooking tumor-associated glycosylation changes. Given the latest progress in glycomics, in this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Xia et al. (2016) use glyco-antigen microarrays to investigate immune responses to whole cancer vaccines and provide important insights into vaccine efficacy.
