Turning 'sweet' on immunity: galectin–glycan interactions in immune tolerance and inflammation (2009, background): “Decoding the biological information encrypted by these glycosylation 'signatures' is a role assigned to endogenous glycan-binding proteins or lectins, the expression patterns of which are regulated during the course of an immune respons”
Signalling through C-type lectin receptors: shaping immune responses (2009, background): “Together, these CLRs recognize most classes of human pathogens; mannose specificity allows the recognition of viruses, fungi and mycobacteria, fucose structures are more specifically expressed by certain bacteria and helminths and glucan structures are present on mycobacteria and fungi 8, 9 .”
