Résumé

Glycans play important roles in the biology of infectious diseases. Although glycans are expressed on both the pathogens and the host, the functions and dynamics of the host glycome during infection are not well understood. Recent years have witnessed new discoveries on the host glycome respsonse to infection, as well as related mechanisms and their implications. Herein, we present a brief review on the latest findings in this field and put them in the context of host immunity.
