Moreover, loss of
glycocalyx, a selective filter can also lead to undue the entry of substances in the organism.

Glycocalyx. J Am Soc Nephrol.
Retargeting the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor to the apical surface of polarized epithelial cells reveals the
glycocalyx as a barrier to adenovirus-mediated gene transfer.
Analysis of 242-282 nm range wavelength spectrograms for low and medium molecular weight substances in plasma and red blood cells

These processes affect cell-surface adhesion molecules and disrupt the
glycocalyx layer.
N-glycan patterns of the plasma membrane glycoproteins contribute a large amount to the glycosylation of the
glycocalyx. Like a tag, the total N-glycan pattern on the cell surface produces specific markers for the types of embryonic differentiation and aging stages and physiological and pathological state of the cells.
(112) Biofilms are formed when microorganisms adhere to surfaces, typically through the secretion of a polysaccharide substance referred to as the
glycocalyx. (113) The movement of water over the surface can cause parts of the biofilm to dislodge and resuspend in the water.
However, it can be detrimental and life-threatening when administered in high volumes, and we have to stress the importance that distribution within the body of critically ill patients is unpredictable due to
glycocalyx injury and disturbances of lymphatic flow, fluids are leaving vascular bed and escape to the interstitium (23).
But owing to the less number of researches being carried out in this domain, the exact function of these halo sugars (
glycocalyx) was unknown.
