A lectin was found in the ova of amago, a Japanese trout (Oncorhyncus rhodurus), which agglutinates rabbit, rat and human B-type erythrocytes. The hemagglutination was specifically inhibited by monosaccharides, L-rhamnose, D-galactose, and their C2 and C4 analogs, and
OBJECTIVE
To understand the biochemical characteristics, virulence genes and pathogenicity of Shigella flexneri Xv isolated in Beijing.
METHODS
61 strains of S. flexneri Xv isolated from diarrhea patients in Beijing were systematically determined through biochemical reactions and serological tests.
Carbohydrate-mediated molecular recognition is involved in many biological aspects such as cellular adhesion, immune response, blood coagulation, inflammation, and infection. Considering the crucial importance of such biological events in which proteins are normally involved, synthetic
The macrophage-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor (MNCF) is an alpha-galactoside-binding lectin, known to induce dexamethasone-insensitive neutrophil recruitment. We further characterized MNCF effects on neutrophils and showed that it shares with TNF-alpha the ability to delay apoptosis and to
An antibody reactive with the galactosyl(alpha 1-2)galactose [gal(alpha 1-2)gal] epitope was characterized in human sera by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, red blood cell (RBC) and laminin absorption, and oligosaccharide inhibition. This antibody was found evenly distributed between the IgG and
Human plasma lactose-binding immunoglobulin (LIg) isolated by affinity chromatography on lactose-Sepharose was largely IgG with significant IgA and IgM contents. LIg-mediated agglutination of desialylated human RBC was inhibited equally by the α- and β-anomers of methyl galactoside. Recognition of
To explore the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from the perspective of metabolomics, gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF/MS) technology was used to observe changes in the metabolic profiles of urine output from rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA).
BACKGROUND
Small intestinal function may be altered in decompensated chronic heart failure (CHF) and translocating LPS may contribute to systemic inflammation observed in CHF.
METHODS
We measured intestinal permeability (melibiose and rhamnose), active (3-O-methyl-d-glucose (3-OMG)) and passive
Ginseng has therapeutic potential for treating obesity and the associated gut microbiota dysbiosis. However, whether white ginseng and red ginseng, the two kinds of commonly used processed ginseng, possess different anti-obesity effects remains
