Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]
, 1998 Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

Infection-generated electric field in gut epithelium drives bidirectional migration of macrophages. [PDF]
, 2019 Many bacterial pathogens hijack macrophages to egress from the port of entry to the lymphatic drainage and/or bloodstream, causing dissemination of life-threatening infections. However, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.

Xc- System as a Possible Target for ConBr Lectin Interaction in Glioma Cells
NeurogliaStudies have revealed the dependence of glioma cells on iron, making them sensitive to ferroptosis. Ferroptosis can be triggered by inhibition of the xc- system, resulting in redox imbalance and membrane lipid peroxidation.

Controlling sap-sucking insect pests with recombinant endophytes expressing plant lectin [PDF]
, 2010 We developed a novel pest management strategy, which uses endophytes to express anti-pest plant lectins. Fungal endophyte of Chaetomium globosum YY-11 with anti-fungi activities was isolated from rape seedlings, and bacterial endophytes of SJ-10 ...
