Data on IL-17 production induced by plant lectins [PDF]
We reported in article da Silva et al. (2016) [2] that ArtinM induces the IL-17 production through interaction with CD4+ T cells and stimulation of IL-23 and IL-1.

Insights into Animal and Plant Lectins with Antimicrobial Activities [PDF]
Lectins are multivalent proteins with the ability to recognize and bind diverse carbohydrate structures. The glyco -binding and diverse molecular structures observed in these protein classes make them a large and heterogeneous group with a wide range of ...

The future of plant lectinology: Advanced technologies and computational tools [PDF]
Lectins play crucial roles in many biological processes and serve as tools in fields ranging from agriculture to biomedicine. While classical methods for lectin discovery and characterization were foundational for the field, they often lack sensitivity ...

Exploring the Structural Diversity and Biotechnological Potential of the Rhodophyte Phycolectome [PDF]
Lectins are non-covalent glycan-binding proteins found in all living organisms, binding specifically to carbohydrates through glycan-binding domains. Lectins have various biological functions, including cell signaling, molecular recognition, and innate ...

Lectin-conjugated pH-responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles for targeted bone cancer treatment [PDF]
A novel multifunctional nanodevice based in doxorubicin (DOX)- loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as nanoplatforms for the assembly of different building blocks has been developed for bone cancer treatment. These building blocks consists of: i) a polyacrylic acid (PAA) capping layer grafted to MSNs via an acid-cleavable acetal linker, to ...

Lectins, lectin genes, and their role in plant defense. [PDF]
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that bind gly? cans of glycoproteins, glycolipids, or polysaccharides with high affinity (Goldstein and Hayes, 1978). Because of their binding specificity, they have the capability to serve as recognition molecules within a cell, between cells, or be? tween organisms. It is assumed that lectins play fundamental

Plant as a plenteous reserve of lectin [PDF]
Lectins are clusters of glycoproteins of nonimmune foundation that combine specifically and reversibly to carbohydrates, mainly the sugar moiety of glycoconjugates, resulting in cell agglutination and precipitation of glycoconjugates. They are universally distributed in nature, being established in plants, fungi, viruses, bacteria, crustacea, insects ...

Characterization of lectins from wheat seedlings infected with Fusarium graminearum and treated by jasmonic acid [PDF]
Fusarium head blight is one of the most serious diseases of wheat caused by a range of Fusarium fungi, which infects the heads of the crop, reducing grain yield.
