A study on the binding interaction of lectins from Artocarpus heterophyllus (jacalin), Glycine max and Sambucus nigra with standardised quantity of IgA from the IgA nephropathy patients and normal controls was performed. The Glycine max lectin demonstrated higher affinity towards the serum IgA of

The protein and glycoprotein content of four different neutral or acidic solvent extracts (0.5 M KCl, 10% EDTA, 0.1 N HCl, or 2% acetic acid) from the mineralized exoskeleton of a decapod crustacean, the Atlantic shore crab Carcinus maenas, were characterized by quantitative analysis of proteins,

Twelve specimens of resin-embedded human trabecular meshwork were probed with a panel of 21 biotinylated lectins, using an avidin-biotin peroxidase revealing system, in order to determine the normal pattern of saccharide expression in this tissue. High-mannose, intermediate and hybrid N-linked

OBJECTIVE The origin of the elevation of serum immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is unsettled. The aim of this study was to address the carbohydrate changes of serum IgA1 from patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, as a possible cause of the elevation. METHODS IgA1 was

T cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) show a decreased activation threshold and increased apoptosis. These processes seem to be regulated by glycosylated molecules on the T cell surface. Here, we determined through flow cytometry the expression of mucin-type O-glycans on T

Antibiotics have traditionally been used for growth promotion in the pork industry; however, their use in animal feed has recently been limited because of human health concerns. The intestinal microbiota plays an important role in mediating many physiological functions such as digestion and animal

The glycocalyx of the mucosal surface of urinary bladder acts as an effective barrier against invasion by pathogenic microorganisms and injury from toxic substances in the urine. Defects in these bladder mucosal components could thus be important factors in the development of diseases such as

SRIF receptors are membrane-bound glycoproteins. To structurally identify the carbohydrate components of SRIF receptors, solubilized rat brain SRIF receptors were subjected to lectin affinity chromatography. Solubilized SRIF receptors specifically bound to wheat germ agglutinin-lectin affinity

OBJECTIVE To examine O-linked glycosylation of serum IgA1 in children with acute Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP). METHODS The O-linked oligosaccharides of serum IgA1 from 28 children with acute HSP and 26 control children were examined by enzyme immunoassay using plant lectins with well defined

Sialic acids (Sia) are terminal components of glycoconjugates that are involved in molecular and cellular interactions in the olfactory system. Diverse glycoconjugates are expressed in the salamander olfactory projection; however, their sialylation and the linkage of Sia to underlying sugars remain

Carbohydrate moieties of cell glycoconjugates play a pivotal role in molecular recognition phenomena involved in the regulation of most biological systems and the changes observed in cell surface carbohydrates during cell activation or differentiation frequently modulate certain cell functions.

The mechanism of mesangial IgA deposition is poorly understood in IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Abnormal glycosylation of carbohydrate moieties in the hinge region of the IgA molecule has recently attracted much attention. In this report, we studied galactosylation and sialylation profiles in kappa- and

Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor and is effective in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, it remains unknown whether sorafenib induces the alteration of protein glycosylation. The present study treated HCC MHCC97L and MHCC97H cells with a 50% inhibitory concentration of sorafenib.
