One hundred and one strains of enterotoxemic Escherichia coli (ETEEC) O-group 139 isolated from swine with edema disease were investigated for their adherence to HEp-2 cells in the presence of D-mannose. All strains adhered in large numbers to the cells (21 to 60 bacteria/cell). No correlation was
Recent studies have shown that lectins are promising tools for use in various biotechnological processes, as well as studies of various pathological mechanisms, isolation, and characterization of glycoconjugates and understanding the mechanisms underlying pathological mechanisms conditions,
Lectins represent a class of proteins or glycoproteins capable of reversibly binding to carbohydrates. Seed lectins from the Dalbergieae tribe (Leguminosae) have structural variability, carbohydrate specificity, and biological effects, such as inflammation, vasorelaxation and cancer antigen binding.
A novel lectin present in Dioclea reflexa seeds (DrfL) was discovered and described in this study. DrfL was purified in a single step by affinity chromatography in a Sephadex G-50 column. The lectin strongly agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes and was inhibited by α-methyl-D-mannoside, D-mannose, and
The polysaccharide preparation from Pimpinella anisum seeds (PAP) was isolated and characterized to evaluate its laser burn wound-healing and anti-inflammatory activities in mice. The structure characterization of PAP by Infra-red spectrometry (IR), Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Gas
With important carbohydrate binding properties, lectins are proteins able to decipher the glycocode, and as such, they can be used in bioassays involving cell-cell communication, protein targeting, inflammation, and hypernociception, among others. In this study, a new glucose/mannose-specific lectin
ConBr, a lectin isolated from Canavalia brasiliensis seeds, shares with other legume plant lectins from the genus Canavalia (Diocleinae subtribe) primary carbohydrate recognition specificity for D-mannose and D-glucose. However, ConBr exerts different biological effects than concanavalin A, the
