Archives of Virology, 2014 Infection with West Nile virus and dengue virus, two mosquito-borne flaviviruses, is enhanced by two calcium-dependent lectins: dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing nonintegrin (DC-SIGN), and its related molecule (DC-SIGNR).

C-type Lectin Receptors for Tumor Eradication: Future Directions [PDF]
Cancers, 2011 Dendritic cells are key regulators in directing immune responses and therefore are under extensive research for the induction of anti-tumor responses. DCs express a large array of receptors by which they scan their surroundings for recognition and uptake of pathogens.

Taxonomic Distribution and Molecular Evolution of Mytilectins
Marine Drugs, 2023 R-type lectins are a widespread group of sugar-binding proteins found in nearly all domains of life, characterized by the presence of a carbohydrate-binding domain that adopts a β-trefoil fold.

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 ...

A new player in the game: platelet-derived extracellular vesicles in dengue hemorrhagic fever
Platelets, 2020 Thrombocytopenia and vascular leakage are clinical hallmarks in dengue hemorrhagic fever. Sung et al. present a new mechanism where platelet-derived extracellular vesicles participate in increasing vascular permeability during dengue virus infection in ...

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.

Quantitative Expression of C-Type Lectin Receptors in Humans and Mice [PDF]
, 2012 C-type lectin receptors, their adaptor molecules and S-type lectins (galectins) are involved in the recognition of glycosylated self-antigens and pathogens.
