The Effects of Concanavalin A on Human Oral Epithelial Cell Staining Adhesion Under Various Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Concanavlin A (ConA), a lectin found in jack-beans can bind to multiple sugars, as can cell receptors found on cheek epithelial cells and erythrocytes. By using horseradish peroxidase and hemagglutination, the effects of mannose and galactose on ConA binding were observed. Galactose had no effect on ConA but mannose bound with more affinity to ConA, competed negatively with the cell receptors, decreasing the amount of ConA that bounds to the cells.

Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) Involvement in Human Endometrial Remodeling During the Menstrual Cycle
Background: Endometrial remodeling occurs during each menstrual cycle in women. Reports have shown that, in a variety of cell types, processes such as proliferation, signaling complex formation and extra cellular matrix remodeling require a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, focal adhesion kinase (FAK). The present study has focused on the expression pattern of FAK in human endometrium during the men...
