On the Action of Complement as Agglutinin [PDF]
In the course of our experiments on haemolytic sera we have met with the following phenomenon which appears of some interest. It consists in the agglutination of the corpuscles of an animal by its own complement through the medium of the corresponding immune-body derived from another animal, and was observed first in the case of ox's corpuscles, the ...

Wheat Germ Agglutinin—From Toxicity to Biomedical Applications
Wheat germ agglutinin is a hevein class N-Acetylglucosamine–binding protein with specific toxicity and biomedical potential. It is extractable from wheat germ—a low-value byproduct of the wheat industry—using well–established extraction methods based on ...

A middle-aged woman with the initial symptom of acrocyanosis diagnosed with cold agglutinin disease: A case report [PDF]
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is when autoantibodies attack red blood cells, leading to anemia. Cold agglutinin disease, a subtype of autoimmune hemolytic anemia, accounts for 13%–32% of cases.

Functional Characterization of an Amaranth Natterin-4-Like-1 Gene in Arabidopsis thaliana
The functional characterization of an Amaranthus hypochondriacus Natterin-4-Like-1 gene (AhN4L-1) coding for an unknown function protein characterized by the presence of an aerolysin-like pore-forming domain in addition to two amaranthin-like agglutinin ...

The carbon reactions of photosynthesis: role of lectins and glycoregulation
Modulation of glycoregulation in agriculture is reviewed here with emphasis on the elucidation of previously unknown pathways involving vacuolar lectins as well as a bypass of lectins that direct free sugars toward productivity.
