Background Polysaccharides are natural macromolecular polymers that are widely
distributed in various food resources and have attracted much attention due to their …

Review on mannose receptor as an endocytic receptor in antigen delivery that is co-
expressed with the microRNA miR-511-3p encoded within the Mrc1 gene. The MR is a …

Living bacteria therapies have been proposed as an alternative approach to treating a broad
array of cancers. In this study, we developed a genetically encoded microbial encapsulation …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms are composed of exopolysaccharides (EPS), exogenous
DNA, and proteins that hold these communities together. P. aeruginosa produces lectins …

Preventing multidrug-resistant bacteria–related infection and simultaneously improving
osseointegration are in great demand for orthopedic implants. However, current strategies …

Antigen presenting cells (macrophages and dendritic cells) express pattern recognition
molecules that are thought to recognize foreign ligands during early phases of the immune …

Macrophages facilitate essential homeostatic functions eg, endocytosis, phagocytosis, and
signaling during inflammation, and express a variety of scavenger receptors including …

Mannose receptor (MR) is a C-type lectin primarily expressed by macrophages and dendritic
cells. Its three distinct extracellular binding sites recognise a wide range of both endogenous …

Abstract Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 is an important polysaccharide receptor; however, the
relationships between the structures and biological activities of TLR4 and polysaccharides …

Macrophages are the dominant infiltrating cells that respond rapidly to biomaterial
implantation in soft and hard tissues. These cells and their fused morphologic variants …
