Glycosylation-Dependent Induction of Programmed Cell Death in Murine Adenocarcinoma Cells
Altered surface glycosylation is a major hallmark of tumor cells associated with aggressive phenotype and poor prognosis. By recognizing specific carbohydrate motifs, lectins can be applied to distinguish tumor from healthy cells based on the expression ...

Production of Recombinant Lectins from Garlic (Allium Sativum) Bulbs and Their Insecticidal Activity Against Hemipteran Insects. [PDF]
Lectins have long been established as potential agents for use in control of insect pest species. In this study the use of garlic bulb lectins against phloem-feeding hemipteran insect pests is investigated.

Covalent Functionalization of 2D Semiconductors: A Roadmap to Advanced Electronic Devices
This Review presents recent advances in the covalent functionalization strategies for two‐dimensional semiconductors and their implementation in modern technologies. Layered materials are modified through diverse molecular chemistries (e.g., thiols, diazonium salts, alkyl halides, and electron‐deficient species) to tailor their surface properties ...

How is Nanoarchitectonics Shaping Extracellular Vesicle Research?
The convergence of nanoarchitectonics and extracellular vesicle biology is reshaping next‐generation nanomedicine by enabling rationally designed nanostructures for enhanced EVs detection, engineering, and therapy. ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have gained recognition as crucial mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication, holding immense potential

Genome-wide analysis of lectins in cyanobacteria: from evolutionary mode to motif patterns
Lectins are glycoproteins that can bind to specific carbohydrates, and different lectin families exhibit different biological activities. They are also present in the cyanobacteria and many of them have shown excellent therapeutic effect, which deserve ...
