Identification of CLEC10A as a human lectin for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesScientific Reports
The mechanism by which glycans in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) interact with human endogenous lectins in the tumor microenvironment remains largely unknown.

Cloning and characterization of a mannose binding C-type lectin gene from salivary gland of Aedes albopictus

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2014
Background The studies on sialomes have shown that hematophagous mosquito saliva consists of a lot of pharmacologically active proteins, in which C-type lectins have been identified and regarded as an important component of saliva.

CD112 Lactylation Drives Dual Immune Evasion From CD8+ T Cells and NK Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AARS2 functions as an intracellular lactate sensor and lactyltransferase, catalyzing CD112 K412 lactylation to block ubiquitination‐dependent degradation and stabilize CD112. This pathway suppresses CD8+ T‐cell and NK‐cell cytotoxicity, enabling dual immune evasion.

Human Galectins Induce Conversion of Dermal Fibroblasts into Myofibroblasts and Production of Extracellular Matrix: Potential Application in Tissue Engineering and Wound Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Members of the galectin family of endogenous lectins are potent adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors. Their multi-functionality opens possibilities for their use in bioapplications. We studied whether human galectins induce the conversion of human dermal

Tumor‐Intrinsic HEXB Drives Endothelial‐To‐Mesenchymal Transition and Confers Resistance to Anti‐Angiogenic Therapy in Glioblastoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates how glioblastoma tumors develop resistance to anti‐VEGF therapy through endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (Endo‐MT). The researchers identify a novel signaling pathway where tumor‐derived HEXB stabilizes HSP60 to drive this vascular reprogramming.

Crotacetin, a novel snake venom C-type lectin, is homolog of convulxin

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2005
Snake venom (sv) C-type lectins encompass a group of hemorrhagic toxins, which are able to interfere with hemostasis. They share significant similarity in their primary structures with C-type lectins of other animals, and also present a conserved ...

C-type lectins in immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2011
Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the leading causes of death due to a single infectious agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with nearly 2 million deaths per year (1). Most individuals exposed to the bacillus develop a nonpathological form, latent TB, with only a small minority (5 to 10%) developing active disease.

Morphophysiological dynamics of the proximal post‐testicular ducts in Crotalus durissus Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Viperidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

Recent insights into structures and functions of C-type lectins in the immune system. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Opin Struct Biol, 2015
The majority of the C-type lectin-like domains in the human genome likely to bind sugars have been investigated structurally, although novel mechanisms of sugar binding are still being discovered.
