Lectins are proteins capable of specific and reversible binding to mono-and/or
oligosaccharides, and within this group, Legume lectins are the most studied. However …

Abstract Phloem protein 2 (PP2) is a protein having lectin properties that can be isolated
from the phloem sap. Based on our previous proteomic study of phloem sap of Cucumis …

Inflammation and oxidative and nitrosative stresses are linked to depression pathogenesis.
In this context, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been used to induce acute inflammation and …

As they manifest specifically and reversibly, lectins are proteins or glycoproteins with the
characteristic of agglutinating erythrocytes. Given that grain legume lectins can represent …

The present research focuses on devising air assisted liquid phase microextraction coupled
chromatographic quantification method for purification of therapeutic lectin using switchable …

Background: Garlic (Allium sativum) from the family Amaryllidaceae is widely used in
culinary and is reported to have potential anticancer, anti-diabetic, antimicrobial, and …

As the main carbohydrate-binding proteins, lectins are responsible for several biological
functions, although their specific roles are still being unveiled. In the current work, a jacalin …

Abstract Structure-function study of plant lectins has received attention for elucidating
possible mechanisms of lectins in cell models. Lectins have the ability to interact with target …

The Dalbergieae lectin group encompasses several lectins with significant differences in
their carbohydrate specificities and biological properties. The current work reports on the …

Lectins from plants of the Diocleinae subtribe often exhibit specificity towards
mannose/glucose and derived sugars, with some plants also displaying a second lectin …
