Sialoglycosylation of RBC in visceral leishmaniasis leads to enhanced oxidative stress, calpain-induced fragmentation of spectrin and hemolysis. [PDF]
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by the intracellular parasite Leishmania donovani accounts for an estimated 12 million cases of human infection. It is almost always associated with anemia, which severely complicates the disease course.

Appearance of sialoglycoproteins in encysting cells of Entamoeba histolytica [PDF]
Amoeba-bacterium cultures of Entamoeba histolytica transferred to a hypoosmotic medium depleted of nutrients changed morphologically and biochemically. The cells ejected grains of rice starch, rounded up, and formed a distinct cell wall that was resistant to detergent, bound the sialic acid-specific lectin from Limulus polyphemus, and became ...

Kinetic analysis of the influenza A virus HA/NA balance reveals contribution of NA to virus-receptor binding and NA-dependent rolling on receptor-containing surfaces. [PDF]
Interactions of influenza A virus (IAV) with sialic acid (SIA) receptors determine viral fitness and host tropism. Binding to mucus decoy receptors and receptors on epithelial host cells is determined by a receptor-binding hemagglutinin (HA), a receptor ...

Targeted Identification of Metastasis-Associated Cell-Surface Sialoglycoproteins in Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Covalent attachment of carbohydrates to proteins is one of the most common post-translational modifications. At the cell surface, sugar moieties of glycoproteins contribute to molecular recognition events involved in cancer metastasis.

ABSTRACT Preeclampsia is a severe gestational complication whose molecular pathogenesis remains poorly understood despite extensive research. It is now recognized that both maternal and fetal cells contribute to disease progression. Notably, single‐cell RNA sequencing of cord blood cells from preeclamptic pregnancies has not been previously ...
