Epidemiology and Infection, Vol. 142, No. 10 (OCTOBER 2014), pp. 2195-2206 (12 pages) Several studies have evaluated the association between mannose-binding lectin (MBL) polymorphisms and sepsis.
Figure 1: Mannose-binding lectin (blue strands) can bind to sites on the SARS-Cov-2 spike protein on the cell membrane. One of the most striking features of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is that across all ...
The mannose-binding lectin associatedprotease-3 (MASP-3) is a member of the lectin pathway of the complement system, a key component of human innate and active immunity. Mutations in MASP-3 have ...
In a recently published article in the journal Cells, scientists have provided a detailed description of the utility of mannose-specific lectins in preventing coronavirus infections. They have ...
Chronic liver disease is a major complication of cystic fibrosis (CF) and factors other than the deletion of ΔF508 (which causes CF) may control the development of liver damage. In May Journal of ...
The lectin pathway is the third pathway in the complement cascade, discovered after the classical and alternative pathways. It more closely resembles the classical pathway due to similar binding ...
Scientists at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University have engineered the human blood opsonin protein known as FcMBL, or Fc-mannose binding lectin, which was originally developed as a broad-spectrum ...
