Lectin binding by Giardia lamblia [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1981 Surface carbohydrates of Giardia lamblia were examined using six plant lectins chosen because of their specificity for major carbohydrates moieties. The binding to axenically grown G. lamblia trophozoites was assessed in both a quantitative microagglutination assay and a fluorescence assay.

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 35, 24 June 2026.As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.
