- Pattern recognition receptors in health and diseases (2021, background): “Extracellular soluble PRMs are composed of different molecular families, mainly including pentraxin,(202) collectin, and ficolin.(203) They generally function in two ways: one is that they recognize various pathogenic factors and eliminate them through complement activation,(204,205) opsonization,(2”
- Biological roles of glycans (2016, background): “The power of phylogenomic sequence comparisons has since revealed many additional families of lectins such as the X-type lectins (intelectins) (331–333), Ficolins (334–335), etc.”
