The effect of Cratylia floribunda lectin on renal hemodynamics and ion transport
Lectins have been described as glycoproteins that reversibly and specifically bind to carbohydrates. Legume lectins isolated from the subtribe Diocleinae (Canavalia, Dioclea andCratylia) are structurally homologous with respect to their primary ...

In vivo protective effect of the lectin from Canavalia brasiliensis on BALB/c mice infected by Leishmania amazonensis [PDF]
In vivo administration of Canavalia brasiliensis lectin (at the time of infection, or maintained throughout the infection) reduced the lesions of highly susceptible BALB/c mice infected by Leishmania amazonensis. At the doses used C. brasiliensis lectin (ConBr) does not interfere with penetration or fate of Leishmania in the macrophages in vitro. Since

The Hepatoprotection by Oleanolic Acid Preconditioning: Focusing on PPARα Activation
Objective. Previous studies have characterized the hepatoprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties of oleanolic acid (OA). This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of OA hepatoprotection in concanavalin A‐ (ConA‐) induced acute liver injury. Materials and Methods. ConA (20 mg/kg) was intravenously injected to induce acute liver injury
