Identification of CLEC10A as a human lectin for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
The mechanism by which glycans in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) interact with human endogenous lectins in the tumor microenvironment remains largely unknown.

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

Crotacetin, a novel snake venom C-type lectin, is homolog of convulxin
Snake venom (sv) C-type lectins encompass a group of hemorrhagic toxins, which are able to interfere with hemostasis. They share significant similarity in their primary structures with C-type lectins of other animals, and also present a conserved ...

Frog foams and natural protein surfactants [PDF]
Foams and surfactants are relatively rare in biology because of their potential to harm cell membranes and other delicate tissues. However, in recent work we have identified and characterized a number of natural surfactant proteins found in the foam ...

C-type lectins, fungi and Th17 responses
Th17 cells are a recently discovered subset of T helper cells characterised by the release of IL-17, and are thought to be important for mobilization of immune responses against microbial pathogens, but which also contribute to the development of autoimmune diseases.

Lactic acid bacteria isolated from poultry protect the intestinal epithelial cells of chickens from in vitro wheat germ agglutinin-induced cytotoxicity [PDF]
Poultry fed on wheat-based diets regularly ingest wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) that has toxic effects in vitro on intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) obtained from 14-d-old broilers.

High mannose-specific lectin Msl mediates key interactions of the vaginal Lactobacillus plantarum isolate CMPG5300 [PDF]
To characterize the interaction potential of the human vaginal isolate Lactobacillus plantarum CMPG5300, its genome was mined for genes encoding lectin-like proteins.
