Visualization of sialidase activity in Mammalian tissues and cancer detection with a novel fluorescent sialidase substrate.

Visualization of sialidase activity in Mammalian tissues and cancer detection with a novel fluorescent sialidase substrate.

Sialidase removes sialic acid from sialoglycoconjugates and plays crucial roles in many physiological and pathological processes. Various human cancers express an abnormally high level of the plasma membrane-associated sialidase isoform.Visualization of sialidase activity in living mammalian tissues...
