Covalent Activation of the C‐type Lectin DC‐SIGN
Abstract Dendritic cell‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule‐3‐grabbing non‐integrin (DC‐SIGN) is a C‐type lectin receptor expressed on antigen‐presenting cells, crucial for pathogen recognition and immune modulation. The shallow and polar carbohydrate binding site of DC‐SIGN presents challenges for ligand design.

Abstract Objective To investigate the role of ST3 β‐galactoside α‐2,3‐sialyltransferase 1 (ST3Gal1) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF‐R2) in endometrioid‐type epithelial ovarian cancer (E‐OC) because aberrant α2,3‐sialylation mediated by ST3Gal1 and VEGF‐R2‐related angiogenesis is linked with tumor progression. Methods ST3Gal1 and

Secondary Sites of the C‐type Lectin‐Like Fold
AbstractC‐type lectins are a large superfamily of proteins involved in a multitude of biological processes. In particular, their involvement in immunity and homeostasis has rendered them attractive targets for diverse therapeutic interventions. They share a characteristic C‐type lectin‐like domain whose adaptability enables them to bind a broad ...

ABSTRACT Objective In the cancer microenvironment, stromal and immune cells hold clinical importance. In lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), the aim of this study was to find immune‐linked gene expression that has prognostic pertinence. Methods From the Cancer Genome Atlas, this study obtained the LSCC gene expression profile.

ABSTRACT Moringa oleifera Lam. seeds contain WSMoL, a lectin previously studied for toxicity and pharmacological effects. In this study, we investigated WSMoL (10, 25, or 50 mg/kg i.p.) for acute and 14‐day repeated‐dose toxicity, as well as genotoxicity, in Swiss mice.
