Prognostic significance of endogenous adhesion/growth-regulatory lectins in lung cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Objective: To determine the expression of endogenous adhesion/growth-regulatory lectins and their binding sites using labeled tissue lectins as well as the binding profile of hyaluronic acid as an approach to define new prognostic markers.

Duodenal Intraepithelial Lymphocytes of Children with Cow Milk Allergy Preferentially Bind the Glycan-Binding Protein Galectin-3 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2009
A breakdown in intestinal homeostasis results in inflammatory bowel diseases including coeliac disease and allergy. Galectins, evolutionarily conserved β-galactoside-binding proteins, can modulate immune-epithelial cell interactions by influencing immune cell fate and cytokine secretion.

β-Mannosyl Triazoles as Mimics of Galactosyl Galectin-3 and Galectin-9 N-Terminal Domain Inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
Galacto‐mimicking mannosyl monotriazoles, but not bis‐triazoles, inhibit galectin‐3 and galectin‐9 N‐terminal domain. Mannosyl β‐C‐1 amidotriazoles have previously been reported to have higher selectivity for galectin‐9N (N‐terminal domain) than the corresponding galactoside C3 amidotriazoles have, which were more selective for galectin‐3.

A Truncated Galectin-3 Isolated from Skin Mucus of Atlantic Salmon Salmo salar Binds to and Modulates the Proteome of the Gram-Negative Bacteria Moritella viscosa

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
The mucus of fish skin plays a vital role in innate immune defense. Some mucus proteins have the potential to incapacitate pathogens and/or inhibit their passage through the skin.

Sensing ligand binding to a clinically relevant lectin by tryptophan fluorescence anisotropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Increasing insights into the involvement of endogenous lectins in disease processes fuel the interest to develop potent inhibitors. As a consequence, robust assay procedures are required. Due to their activity as adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors this

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Simvastatin Restores Uteroplacental Hemodynamics and Trophoblast Function in Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome in a Placenta‐on‐a‐Chip Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Simvastatin mitigates placental hypoperfusion in OAPS by ameliorating abnormal uteromaternal hemodynamics and enhancing trophoblast invasion via optimized endothelial cell interactions under pathological shear stress, as evidenced by results from a placenta‐on‐a‐chip platform.

Galectin-3 determines tumor cell adaptive strategies in stressed tumor microenvironments

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2016
Galectin-3 is a member of the b-galactoside binding lectin family, whose expression is often dysregulated in cancers. While galectin-3 is usually an intracellular protein, found in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm; under certain conditions, galectin-3 ...
