C-type lectins facilitate tumor metastasis
Oncology Letters, 2016 Metastasis, a life-threatening complication of cancer, leads to the majority of cases of cancer-associated mortality. Unfortunately, the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms of cancer metastasis remain to be fully elucidated. C-type lectins are a large group of proteins, which share structurally homologous carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs)

“Sweet Talk”: Closing in on C Type Lectin Signaling [PDF]
Immunity, 2005 C type lectins recognize pathogens by binding to pathogen-specific carbohydrate residues. The finding reported by Rogers et al. (2005) in this issue of Immunity, that ligand binding by the C type lectin Dectin-1 leads to recruitment of the tyrosine kinase Syk and is critical to subsequent cytokine production by the cell, will surely inspire further ...

Variation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharide directs dendritic cell-induced T helper responses. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2009 Gonorrhea is one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases in the world. A naturally occurring variation of the terminal carbohydrates on the lipooligosaccharide (LOS) molecule correlates with altered disease states.

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Tetranectin, a trimeric plasminogen‐binding C‐type lectin [PDF]
Protein Science, 1997 AbstractTetranectin, a plasminogen‐binding protein belonging to the family of C‐type lectins, was expressed in E. coli and converted to its native form by in vitro refolding and proteolytic processing. Recombinant tetranectin—as well as natural tetranectin from human plasma—was shown by chemical cross‐linking analysis and SDS‐PAGE to be a homo‐trimer ...

Transcriptome analyses to investigate symbiotic relationships between marine protists.
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Rhizaria are an important component of oceanic plankton communities worldwide. A number of species harbour eukaryotic microalgal symbionts, which are horizontally acquired in the environment at each generation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While targeted therapies have improved outcomes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), many patients still lack targetable mutations. Here, we identified alpha‐L‐fucosidase 2 (FUCA2) as a crucial driver of LUAD by preventing cellular senescence. Mechanistically, through the restriction of fucosyltransferase 3 (FUT3)‐mediated α‐1,3‐fucosylation of ...

Renal IGFBP6 Interacts With THBS1 to Drive Renal Cellular Senescence and Fibrosis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Epithelial dedifferentiation and myofibroblast activation are critical drivers of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Elevated levels of IGFBP6 have been linked to decreased renal function in CKD patients, but its precise role and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.
