Deletion of haematopoietic Dectin-2 or CARD9 does not protect from atherosclerosis development under hyperglycaemic conditions

open access: yesDiabetes & Vascular Disease Research, 2020
Background: C-type lectin receptors, including Dectin-2, are pattern recognition receptors on monocytes and macrophages that mainly recognize sugars and sugar-like structures present on fungi.

Modulation of NK cell function by genetically coupled C-type lectin-like receptor/ligand pairs encoded in the human Natural Killer Gene Complex (NKC)

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Functional responses of Natural Killer (NK) cells including eradication of ‘harmful’ cells and modulation of immune responses are regulated by a broad variety of activating and inhibitory NK receptors. Whereas the leukocyte receptor complex (LRC) encodes

The Vi Capsular Polysaccharide of Salmonella Typhi Promotes Macrophage Phagocytosis by Binding the Human C-Type Lectin DC-SIGN

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Capsular polysaccharides are common virulence factors of extracellular, but not intracellular bacterial pathogens, due to the antiphagocytic properties of these surface structures.

Comparative transcriptomics reveals the immune dynamics during the molting cycle of swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Molting is one of the most important biological processes of crustacean species, and a number of molecular mechanisms facilitate this complex procedure. However, the understanding of the immune mechanisms underlying crustacean molting cycle remains very ...

C‐type lectin‐like receptors on myeloid cells

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2006
Host defence against pathogens requires the recognition of conserved microbial molecules, or 'pathogen-associated molecular patterns' (PAMPs), by their receptors termed 'pattern recognition receptors' (PRRs), represented most notably by toll-like receptors (TLRs) and C-type lectins.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Inhibitory C-type lectin receptors in myeloid cells

open access: yesImmunology Letters, 2011
C-type lectin receptors encoded by the natural killer gene complex play critical roles in enabling NK cell discrimination between self and non-self. In recent years, additional genes at this locus have been identified with patterns of expression that extend to cells of the myeloid lineage where many of the encoded inhibitory receptors have equally ...

cDNA Cloning and Expression Analysis of Pattern Recognition Proteins from the Chinese Oak Silkmoth, Antheraea pernyi

open access: yesInsects, 2012
Pattern recognition receptors play an important role in insect immune defense. We cloned the β-1,3-glucan recognition protein, lectin-5 and C-type lectin 1 genes of Antheraea pernyi and examined the expression profiles of immune-stimulated pupae.

Characterisation of the bovine C-type lectin receptor Mincle and potential evidence for an endogenous ligand

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Innate immune receptors that form complexes with secondary receptors, activating multiple signalling pathways, modulate cellular activation and play essential roles in regulating homeostasis and immunity. We have previously identified a variety of bovine
