Identification of a Ficolin-like Serum Lectin of the Common Carp as a Novel Homologue of Mammalian Microfibrillar-Associated Protein 4

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Serum lectins in vertebrates play crucial roles in innate immunity as recognition molecules for pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). In mammals, two major lectins, mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and ficolin, both containing N-terminal collagen ...

Role of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells in tumor-associated pregnancy [PDF]

, 2012
Cancer progression is dependent, in part, on interactions between tumor cells and the host microenvironment. During pregnancy, physiological changes occur that include inflammation and reduced immunity, both of which can promote tumor growth. Accordingly,

Differential Role of the Lectin Pathway of Complement Activation in Susceptibility to Neonatal Sepsis [PDF]

, 2017
Background. The incidence of bacterial sepsis during the neonatal period is high. Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), L-ficolin, and H-ficolin recognize microorganisms and activate the complement system viaMBL-associated serine proteases (MASPs).

Analysis of the distribution of ficolin gene polymorphisms (FCN2) in children with bronchial asthmas of various severity

Медицинская иммунология
Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases in all age groups. Asthma has heterogeneous phenotypes with different etiologies. Many parameters are used to classify asthma, for example, the severity and level of flow control.
