Chst4–/– mice, lacking GlcNAc-6-O-sulfation of the mucin O-glycans, showed significant weight gain and increased susceptibility to dextran sodium sulfate–induced colitis as well as colitis-associated cancer accompanied by significantly reduced immunoglobulin A (IgA) production caused by an impaired T follicular helper cell–mediated IgA response. Here, CD79A is linked to cancer.
