Six novel branched beta-cyclodextrins (betaCDs) having beta-D-galactose residues on the non-reducing terminal of the sugar side chains, namely 6(1),6(4)-di-O-(beta-D-galactosyl)-betaCD (10), 6-O-(beta-D-galactosyl)-betaCD (11), 6(1),6(4)-di-O-(beta-lactosyl)-betaCD (14), 6-O-(beta-lactosyl)-betaCD
Previous histochemical studies have demonstrated disparities in the binding of two lectins with a nominal specificity for terminal beta-D-galactose. Biochemical studies have shown that the most complementary structure for binding peanut agglutinin (PNA) is the terminal disaccharide Gal-(beta
The surface coating of the pneumonocytes in human neonatal lung was studied by means of an electron microscope technique. Slices of aldehyde-fixed lung tissue were labelled with a horseradish peroxidase conjugate of one of the following lectins: Dolichos biflorus lectin, Triticum vulgaris lectin,
In order to evaluate the ability of multivalent glycosides based on a beta-cyclodextrin core as site-specific molecular carriers, a study on both the inclusion complexation behaviour and lectin binding affinity of branched and hyperbranched beta-cyclodextrins is presented. A series of cluster
Various caseinoglycopeptide derivatives prepared from mammalian milk were evaluated as inhibitors of hemagglutinations mediated by Actinomyces viscosus Ny1, Streptococcus sanguis OMZ9, and, for comparative purposes, plant lectins from Arachis hypogaea and Bauhinia purpurea. It was found that
An attempt was made to determine the composition of oligosaccharide side chains in the apical cell surface glycocalices of the middle ear epithelium. This glycoconjugate is located on the innermost luminal surface, but its function is still unknown. The lectins evaluated included Triticum vulgare,
Lectins were used to characterize bone forming cells in posttraumatic myositis ossificans. The lectins applied were as follows: Arachis hypogaea (PNA): specific for beta-D-galactose (1,3)N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (Gal-1,3 GalNac), Canavalia ensiformis (Con A): specific for alpha-D-glucose (D-Glc) and
The epithelium at the trigone of the urinary bladder showed intestinal metaplasia of a colonic type in three Holstein-Friesian cows affected with chronic polypoid cystitis. Except for Ricinus communis (RCA-I), almost all goblet cells in the whole crypt were positive to periodic acid-Schiff (PAS),
The Bidder's organ and ovary of the Brazilian toad Bufo ictericus were studied by light microscopy, using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and periodic acid Schiff (PAS) staining. The expression and distribution of carbohydrate moieties was analyzed by lectin histochemistry, using 8 lectins with different
