Hypersialylation = an excess of sugars on cell surfaces, helping #cancer & #autoimmune cells evade the immune system by allowing them to go undetected. It’s a key target in glyco-immunology and at the heart of our work at Palleon. Learn more: bit.ly/3DUGdvt #glycotime

Congratulations to our student @DuxfieldAdam Dr Duxfield!!! What an achievement! @MD_Briggs @MunkleyLab

#Glyco27 brought together the global #glycomics community in Edmonton for a week of world-class science, networking, and celebration that’s still on our minds. Catch some of the highlights & photos: canadianglycomics.ca/glycomi… #Glyco27 #Glycotime #Glycoscience #Glycobiology

Very happy to share our research on prostate cancer glycans to open the cancer session at at Glyco27. Thank you @glyconet_nce @PCR_News @ProstateUK

🎉 We’re celebrating 25 years of @scienceatlife! In the next episode of this special series of @uniofnewcastle’s #FromNewcastle podcast Dr Jennifer Munkley @MunkleyLab discusses how the pioneering research taking place at Life is advancing our understanding of prostate cancer

Can FUT8 inhibition slow #ProstateCancer progression? A team led by @MunkleyLab at @NU_Cancer report in @CancerMedicineJ that FUT8 drives prostate tumour growth and fucosylation inhibitors block it, revealing a key therapy target. Grab a ☕ and read: doi.org/10.1002/cam4.70959

94% of GPs would support launch of a national prostate cancer screening programme for high-risk men. As the National Screening Committee reviews prostate cancer screening policy, GPs across the UK were asked for their opinions on the reforms under consideration. The survey results showed overwhelming support for the introduction of a national screening programme targeted at high-risk groups. To read more, visit our website: pcr.org.uk/gps-support-launc… Join our campaign network and be part of the change: mailchi.mp/pcr.org.uk/proact…   ​ ​The time for change is now. Let’s do this together.

💙 “As someone who was diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer at 60, having been asymptomatic until a runners’ groin strain 3 months prior to my diagnosis, I was devastated to then find out that I’d had a right to a PSA blood test from age 50 but didn’t know about it. A screening test from age 50 may well have led to my earlier diagnosis with a significantly better outcome, so I’m 100% behind this campaign to have a screening programme for at-risk men.” Tony’s story shows how earlier access to PSA testing could save lives. A national screening programme for prostate cancer is long overdue, and together, we can make it happen. 📢 Let’s stand with Tony and demand change: 👉mailchi.mp/pcr.org.uk/proact…

The @ProstateUK research team had a fantastic visit with Dr Ning Wang and Dr Feier Zeng at @uniofleicester hearing about their research to understand how exercise reduces the spread of #prostatecancer to the bones. 🌐 Read more about their work: bit.ly/3Z1QKQL

💙 Prostate cancer doesn’t just affect men—it impacts families, friends, and entire communities. At every stage of the journey, support groups play a vital role in providing emotional, practical, and peer support. For many men, especially in the early stages of diagnosis, @TackleProstate's support groups are a lifeline—offering guidance, connection, and reassurance during what can be a confusing and overwhelming time. Screening can save lives, and for men in these groups, early detection means more time with loved ones and the peace of mind that comes with catching cancer early. 📢 Join us and Tackle Prostate Cancer in calling for a national screening programme that ensures early detection is accessible to everyone. Together, we can make a difference and be #ProactiveForYourProstate. 👉 Sign up to our campaign network and together we can help make screening a reality: mailchi.mp/pcr.org.uk/proact…
