C-type lectins and extracellular vesicles in virus-induced NETosis

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2021
Dysregulated formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is observed in acute viral infections. Moreover, NETs contribute to the pathogenesis of acute viral infections, including those caused by the dengue virus (DV) and severe acute respiratory ...

Expression of DC-SIGN and DC-SIGNR on human sinusoidal endothelium: a role for capturing hepatitis C virus particles. [PDF]

, 2006
Hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells are unique among endothelial cells in their ability to internalize and process a diverse range of antigens. DC-SIGNR, a type 2 C-type lectin expressed on liver sinusoids, has been shown to bind with high affinity to ...

Transmission-blocking antibodies against mosquito C-type lectins for dengue prevention. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
C-type lectins are a family of proteins with carbohydrate-binding activity. Several C-type lectins in mammals or arthropods are employed as receptors or attachment factors to facilitate flavivirus invasion.

Evolution and Immune Function of Fish Lectins [PDF]

, 2016
Lectins are sugar-binding proteins widely distributed among animals, plants, and microbial taxon, involved in diverse biological processes. In both invertebrates and vertebrates, they play key roles in nonself recognition and immune responses, such as ...

C-Type Lectin Receptors in Asthma [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease that affects approximately 300 million people worldwide, largely in developed countries. The etiology of the disease is poorly understood, but is likely to involve specific innate and adaptive responses to inhaled microbial components that are found in allergens.

How C-type lectins detect pathogens. [PDF]

Cellular microbiology, 2005
Glycosylation of proteins has proven extremely important in a variety of cellular processes, including enzyme trafficking, tissue homing and immune functions. In the past decade, increasing interest in carbohydrate-mediated mechanisms has led to the identification of novel carbohydrate-recognizing receptors expressed on cells of the immune system ...

Functional characterisation and comparative analysis of two C-type lectins with different key motifs from mud crab

Aquaculture Reports, 2022
C-type lectins are pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) involved in innate immunity. They possess one or more carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) belonging to Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate binding proteins.

Molecular basis for intestinal mucin recognition by galectin-3 and C-type lectins [PDF]

, 2018
Intestinal mucins trigger immune responses upon recognition by dendritic cells via protein–carbohydrate interactions. We used a combination of structural, biochemical, biophysical, and cell-based approaches to decipher the specificity of the interaction ...
