Metal ions and human sperm mannose receptors
Andrologia, 2000Zinc and lead concentrations were measured in seminal plasma from fertile donors, infertile men with varicocoele and men undergoing work-ups for in vitro fertilization. Ejaculated spermatozoa from these subjects were incubated in vitro with various metal ions and/or dibromoethane and dibromochloropropane. Mannose receptor expression was correlated with

Mannose receptor and phagocytosis
1999Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the role of mannose receptor in phagocytosis. The mannose receptor (MR) is a ≈175 kDa transmembrane receptor expressed on resident macrophage subpopulations, dendritic cells, and on subsets of endothelial cells.

Macrophage mannose receptor in chronic sinus disease
Allergy, 2004Background: The role of infectious agents in the onset and maintenance of chronic sinus disease is still not fully understood. Macrophage mannose receptor (MMR), an innate pattern recognizing receptor, capable of phagocytosis of invaders and signal transduction for proinflammatory mechanisms, might be of importance in immune interactions in chronic ...

The Cation-Dependent Mannose 6-Phosphate Receptor
2001The 46kDa cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CD-MPR) and the 300kDa cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) are the sole members of the P-type family of lectins, which derive their name from their ability to bind phosphorylated mannose residues.

The Mannose Receptor in the Brain
2003The mannose receptor is a transmembrane glycoprotein mainly expressed by macrophages, that specifically binds to mannosylated molecules and mediates their endocytosis. Known ligands of the receptor are lysosomases and various pathogens. Ligand specificity and cellular distribution provide the mannose receptor with a very important role in homeostasis ...

The mannose receptor and other macrophage lectins
Current Biology, 1992The macrophage expresses a variety of cell surface lectins with activities that support specific functional roles and correspond to various differentiation states characteristic of this cell type. Recently, research has been carried out to investigate the mannose receptor, the advanced glycosylation end products receptor, the mannose-6-phosphate ...

The mannose receptor and phagocytosis
1992Macrophages are distributed throughout almost all organs in the body where they form a lattice beneath epithelial surfaces; their physiological role includes interactions with neighboring cells, the clotting and complement cascades as well as a role in first line host defense (1).

Mannose Receptor Family: R-Type Lectins
2012R-type lectins exist ubiquitously in nature and mainly bind to galactose unit of sugar chains. Originally found in plant lectin, Ricin, the R-type lectin domain is found in several animal lectins, including the members of mannose receptor (MR) family, and in some invertebrate lectins (discussed in Chap. 14).
