An evolutionary perspective on C‐type lectins in infection and immunity

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2012
Host–pathogen interactions have coevolved for many years. On the one hand, the human immune system consists of innate and adaptive immune cells that function to defeat pathogens, and on the other hand, pathogens have coevolved to use the system for their own propagation.

A Family of C-Type Lectins in Manduca sexta

2001
Insects have a rapid and effective immune system against microbial infections (Gillespie et al., 1997) that shares common characteristics with the innate immune system of vertebrates. It also consists of humoral and cellular responses. In the cellular responses such as phagocytosis, nodule formation and encapsulation, hemocytes play important roles. In

Classification of C‐Type Lectins and Recognition of Pathogens

Microbiology and Immunology
ABSTRACT C‐type lectins are calcium‐dependent glycan‐binding proteins that play key roles in the innate immune response by recognizing pathogens. Soluble C‐type lectins agglutinate and neutralize pathogens, activate the complement system, and promote pathogen clearance via opsonization.

Immunobiology of C-Type Lectin Receptors

2013
C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) that signal via the kinase Syk are an important class of pattern recognition receptors in the innate immune system. They recognize pathogen- and host-derived danger signals, and are best known for their role in antifungal immunity.
