The Landscape of SPP1+ Macrophages Across Tissues and Diseases: A Comprehensive Review
SPP1+ macrophages represent a conserved, disease‐associated population present across cancerous and non‐cancerous conditions, involved in immunosuppression, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes. This review highlights their shared molecular programmes across tissues, their interactions with stromal and immune cells ...

Mannose binding lectin polymorphisms in systemic lupus erythematosus in Spain
Low mannose binding lectin (MBL) producer genotypes have been considered as a systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) risk factor. The aim of this study was to explore whether polymorphisms in the MBL gene are associated with susceptibility to SLE and disease-

Neutrophils in the Bone Marrow Express DEC205, Guiding Their Migration to Inflamed Tissues
In bone marrow, immature neutrophils express high levels of DEC205, necessary to mediate migration through endothelial cell layers in vitro and in vivo. During maturation and migration to peripheral tissues, expression of DEC205 is downregulated. Thus, expression of DEC205 inversely correlates with the maturation of neutrophils and is involved in ...

Background: The mannose-binding lectin (MBL) plays an important role in innate immunity. Genetically determined variations in serum levels of MBL may influence the susceptibility and clinical outcome of dengue infection in early life.

Plant mannose-binding lectins (MBLs) are crucial for plant defense signaling during pathogen attack by recognizing specific carbohydrates on pathogen surfaces. In this study, we isolated and functionally characterized a novel pepper (Capsicum annuum) MBL

Mechanisms governing bacterial capsular polysaccharide attachment and chain length
Abstract Capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) are high‐molecular weight glycopolymers that form a capsule layer on the surface of many bacterial species. This layer serves as a crucial barrier between bacteria and their environment, protecting them from host immune responses and environmental stressors while facilitating adaptation to host niches.

Fast and Autonomous Mannosylated Nanomotors for Dynamic Cancer Cell Targeting
An enzyme‐loaded nanomotor decorated with mannose polymers shows a synergistic effect with respect to cell targeting. The mannose units interact with mannose receptors (MRs) on the cell surface, whereas the presence of the glycopolymer on the motor surface also leads to a more effective motile behavior in cell medium. Abstract An attractive strategy in

Griffithsin Retains Anti-HIV-1 Potency with Changes in gp120 Glycosylation and Complements Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies PGT121 and PGT126. [PDF]
Griffithsin (Grft) is an antiviral lectin that has been shown to potently inhibit HIV-1 by binding high-mannose N-linked glycosylation sites on HIV-1 gp120.

Summary Constitutive expression of hypersensitive cell‐death‐inducing effectors secreted by pathogens has proved to be difficult in plants. Herein, xylem‐specific promoters (PVND7 or PVND2) were utilized to express three cell‐death‐inducing proteins (FocSIX1A, FocSIX6 or TvSm1) of fungal origin in banana plants.
