Possible role for cell-surface carbohydrate-binding molecules in lymphocyte recirculation. [PDF]
We are investigating the hypothesis that carbohydrate-binding molecules on the cell surface are involved in the recirculation of lymphocytes from the bloodstream into lymphoid organs.

Space, the final frontier: The spatial component of phytoplankton–bacterial interactions
This review highlights the importance of spatial proximity between marine bacteria and unicellular algae in symbiotic associations. Bacterial strategies to achieve this proximity include attachment (irreversible or reversible) and directed or random encounters.

Recommendation of consensus definition of sea turtle fibropapillomatosis 关于海龟纤维性乳突瘤病(FP)共识定义的建议
Scutavirus chelonid alphaherpesvirus 5 (ChHV5), subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae is the oncogenic viral pathogen agent of all species of sea turtles specifically correlated to sea turtle fibropapillomatosis (FP) clinical cases. Increased risks of spread of diseases due to climate‐induced terrestrial and oceanic changes warrant the implementation of a ...

A Novel Antinociceptive Sulphated Polysaccharide of the Brown Marine Alga
Sulfated polysaccharides (SP) of brown algae (Phaeophyta) are composed mainly of α- L-fucose, being classified as fucans, with recognized role in inflammation but not in nociception, which was already described for SP obtained from red algae. Here the SP

Structural analysis of sulfated fucans by high-field NMR.
The structures of several sulfated polysaccharides isolated from marine organisms have been determined by a combination of degradative and spectroscopic techniques. For two sulphated fucans, one isolated from the sea cucumber L. grisea, and one from the sea urchin L. variegatus, a novel type of polysaccharide structure is proposed based on the analysis

A carbohydrate-based mechanism of species recognition in sea urchin fertilization
In the present review, we describe a systematic study of the sulfated polysaccharides from marine invertebrates, which led to the discovery of a carbohydrate-based mechanism of sperm-egg recognition during sea urchin fertilization.
