Nonhuman glycans can regulate anti–factor VIII antibody formation in mice

Recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) products represent a life-saving intervention for patients with hemophilia A. However, patients can develop antibodies against FVIII that prevent its function and directly increase morbidity and mortality. The development of anti-FVIII antibodies varies depending on the type of recombinant product used, with previous studies suggesting that second-generation baby hamster kidney (BHK)-derived FVIII products display...
