Anti-inflammatory effect of glucose—mannose binding lectins isolated from Brazilian beans
Selectins are essential for leukocyte recruitment in inflammation. Because of a lectin domain present in the selectin structure, we investigated the anti-inflammtory activity of six mannose–glucose binding lectins from brazilian beans: Dioclea guianensis-

Anti-inflammatory and Anti-necrotic Effect of Lectins from Canavalia ensiformis and Canavalia brasiliensis in Experimental Acute Pancreatitis [PDF]
Abstract Lectins isolated from Canavalia ensiformis (ConA) and Canavalia brasiliensis (ConBr) are promising molecules to modulate cell death. Acute pancreatitis, characterized by acinar cell necrosis and inflammation, presents significant morbidity and mortality.

Chimerolectins: Classification, structural architecture, and functional perspectives. [PDF]
Abstract Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins capable of binding specifically and reversibly to carbohydrates, a property that, in itself, gives them great functional versatility in organisms from all kingdoms of nature. A subclass of these proteins, called chimerolectins, is composed of proteins that have at least one lectin domain associated with ...

AGRONOMIC EVALUATION OF TROPICAL GRASSES ASSOCIATED WITH Canavalia brasiliensis IN DRY TROPIC
Livestock production in some tropical regions is characterized by the use of naturalized forages in extensive management with low production rates. The use of improved grass-legume associations represents a sustainable intensification opportunity for this type of agroecosystems.

Molecular Cloning and Characterization of ConBr, the Lectin of Canavalia Brasiliensis Seeds [PDF]
ConBr, a lectin isolated from Canavalia brusiliensis seeds, shares with other legume plant lectins from the genus Canavalia (Diocleinae subtribe) primary carbohydrate recognition specificity for D‐mannose and D‐glucose. However, ConBr exerts different biological effects than concanavalin A, the lectin of Canavalia ensiformis seeds, regarding induction ...
