Hydrogel and membrane scaffold formulations of Frutalin (breadfruit lectin) wit...
Sousa, Felipe Domingos de; Vasconselos, Pedrinha Diógenes; Silva, Ayrles Fernanda Brandão da; Mota, Erika Freitas; Tomé, Adriana da RochaPlant lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins, which can interact with cell surfaces to initiate anti-inflammatory pathways, as well as immunomodulatory functions. Here, we have extracted, purified and part-characterized the bioactivity of Jacalin, Frutalin, DAL and PNA, before evaluating their potential for wound healing in cultured human skin fibroblasts. Only Frutalin stimulated fibroblast migration in vit...
Clonagem e expressão da lectina Frutapina em Escherichia coli: análises estrutu...
Sousa, Felipe Domingos dePlant lectins are proteins which are able to promote specific recognition and reversible binding to selective sugars in carbohydrates or glycoconjugates without altering their covalent structure. Due to these inherent features, lectins can interact with cell surface moieties and display both inflammatory and anti-inflammatory, as well as immunomodulatory and immunostimulatory, properties. Artocarpus incisa is a...
