Targeting antigens to dendritic cell receptors for vaccine development [PDF]
, 2013 Dendritic cells (DCs) are highly specialized antigen presenting cells of the immune system which play a key role in regulating immune responses. Depending on the method of antigen delivery, DCs stimulate immune responses or induce tolerance.

Thyroid hormone increases mannan-binding lectin levels [PDF]
European Journal of Endocrinology, 2005 Background: Recent studies have indicated the existence of causal links between the endocrine and immune systems and cardiovascular disease. Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), a protein of the innate immune system, may constitute a connection between these fields.

Flocculation in industrial strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae:role of cell wall polysaccharides and lectin-like receptors [PDF]
, 2017 Yeast flocculation is the reversible aggregation of yeast cells promoted by the interaction between lectin-like protein receptors with mannose side chains on adjacent cell walls.

Challenge Specific Modulation of Responses to Adjuvant‐Induced Innate Immune Memory
Immunology, EarlyView.We utilised a commercially available adjuvant formulation to study the induction, maintenance, and consequences of innate immune memory. Using functional assays on bone marrow‐derived innate cells, extensive transcriptomic analysis of haematopoietic progenitors, and challenge models of spirochetal infection, nonspecific inflammation, and model antigen ...

Carbohydrate specificity of sea urchin sperm bindin: a cell surface lectin mediating sperm-egg adhesion. [PDF]
, 1982 We have examined the carbohydrate specificity of bindin, a sperm protein responsible for the adhesion of sea urchin sperm to eggs, by investigating the interaction of a number of polysaccharides and glycoconjugates with isolated bindin.

Mannose-binding lectin in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus infection [PDF]
, 2005 Little is known about the innate immune response to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus (CoV) infection. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL), a key molecule in innate immunity, functions as an ante-antibody before the specific antibody response.

Mannan‐Binding Lectin Inhibits Humoural Responses [PDF]
Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2004 Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection affects about 200–400 million people worldwide and represents one of the leading causes for liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Control over the HBV infection is achieved mainly by vaccination with Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg).

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Plant cell walls constitute a major defence barrier against pathogens, although it is unclear how specific cell wall components impact pathogen colonisation. Pathogens secrete cell wall‐degrading enzymes (CWDEs) to facilitate plant colonisation, but damaged or infected cells are often a source of cell wall‐derived oligosaccharides that trigger ...
