Leguminous Lectins as Tools for Studying the Role of Sugar Residues in Leukocyte Recruitment

The natural physiological ligands for selectins are oligosaccharides found in glycoprotein or glycolipid molecules in cell membranes. In order to study the role of sugar residues in the in vivo lectin anti-inflammatory effect, we tested three leguminous lectins with different carbohydrate binding af...
