Crystal structure of a Manα(1-2)Man specific lectin from Bowringia milbraedii
Lectins are proteins of non-immune origin that specifically recognize carbohydrate structures. They are widespread in all kingdoms of life and mediate a variety of biological processes such as viral, bacterial and parasitic infections, growth and differentiation or cancer metastasis [1]. Plant lectins [2], especially those purified from the leguminous family [3], are among the best studied grou...
متن کاملCold agglutinin disease.
Cold agglutinin disease is a rare and poorly understood disorder affecting 15% of patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia. We reviewed the clinical and pathologic features, prognosis, and management in the literature and describe our institutional experience to improve strategies for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Retrospective analysis identified 89 patients from our institution with cold...
متن کاملWheat Germ Agglutinin
Procedures for the isolation, purification, and crystallization of wheat germ agglutinin are described. The agglutinin was purified 184-fold to homogeneity from commercial wheat germ lipase. A molecular weight of 23,500 was estimated for the protein by means of sedimentation equilibrium and sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. The agghxtinin is a glycoprotein. Amino acid and carbohydrate...
متن کاملCold Agglutinin Disease; A Laboratory Challenge
INTRODUCTION Autoimmune haemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a complex process characterized by an immune reaction against red blood cell self-antigens. The analysis of specimens, drawn from patients with cold auto-immune hemolytic anemia is a difficult problem for automated hematology analyzer. This paper was written to alert technologists and pathologists to the presence of cold agglutinins and its ef...
متن کاملHow I manage cold agglutinin disease.
Primary chronic cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a clonal lymphoproliferative disorder accounting for 13-15% of autoimmune haemolytic anaemias. Significant advances have been made in treatment, which was largely unsuccessful until recently. The essential clinical, immunological and pathological features are reviewed, focusing on their relevance for therapy. Non-pharmacological management still ...
