A Simple Mannose-Coated Poly (p-Phenylene Ethynylene) for Qualitative Bacterial Capturing

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
A mannose-functionalized poly (p-phenylene ethynylene) was rationally designed to achieve selective detection of bacteria. The polymer was constructed as a signaling unit and was modified by attaching aminoethyl mannose using the carboxylic acid group at

Activity of mannose‐binding lectin in centenarians [PDF]

open access: yesAging Cell, 2012
SummaryWe analyzed MBL2 gene variants in two cohorts of centenarians, octo‐nonagenarians and nonagenarians, and in the general population, one from Sardinia Island (Italy), recruited in the frame of the AKea study, and another from Campania (southern Italy), to search for haplotypes related to longevity.

Bone healing and Mannose-Binding Lectin

open access: yesInternational Journal of Surgery, 2013
Non-union of a fracture is a phenomenon that may complicate bone healing. Consolidation of a fracture can be divided into three phases: inflammation, reconstruction, and remodeling. Both the complement system and the coagulation cascade interact at various steps throughout these phases. Several complement components are specifically associated with the
