1. Polimorfismo do gene da lectina ligante de manose e seu efeito em desfechos de curto prazo em bebês prematuros
Resumo Objetivo: A lectina ligante de manose (MBL, do inglês mannose-binding lectin), que pertence à família das colectinas, é um reagente de fase aguda que ativa o sistema complemento. Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar o efeito do polimorfismo do gene MBL2 em desfechos de curto prazo em prematuros. Método: Este estudo prospectivo incluiu cria

2. Inhibitory effect of Lonchocarpus araripensis lectin in rat acute models of inflammation
Abstract: Dalbergieae tribe lectins, possessing binding affinity for galactose and mannose, present inflammatory and nociceptive effects, while those for N-acetylglucosamine are anti-inflammatory. Since the anti-inflammatory effect of the seed lectin of L. araripensis (LAL) had been already demonstrated in mice, this effect was presently evaluated in rat mod

3. Association between MBL2 haplotypes and dengue severity in children from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
BACKGROUND Dengue is an arthropod-borne viral disease with a majority of asymptomatic individuals and clinical manifestations varying from mild fever to severe and potentially lethal forms. An increasing number of genetic studies have outlined the association between host genetic variations and dengue severity. Genes associated to viral recognition and ent

4. Mannose-Binding Lectin 2 (MBL2) combined genotypes deficiency is associated with susceptibility for Oral Lichen Planus
Abstract Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is an oral inflammatory condition, mediated by host immune system reaction, presenting basal membrane damages with inflammatory lesions in the mouth and/or skin. In this study, the role of functional polymorphisms in the MBL2 gene, encoding for Mannose-Binding Protein C (MBP-C), a member of the innate immune response and an

5. Combined genotypes of the MBL2 gene related to low mannose-binding lectin levels are associated with vaso-occlusive events in children with sickle cell anemia
Abstract Sickle cell anemia (SCA) presents heterogenous clinical manifestations that cannot be explained solely by alterations to hemoglobin (Hb); other components such as endothelial adhesion, thrombosis and inflammation may be involved. The mannose-binding lectin (MBL) has an important role in innate immunity and inflammatory diseases. In this report, we d

6. Mannose-binding lectin 2 (Mbl2) gene polymorphisms are related to protein plasma levels, but not to heart disease and infection by Chlamydia
The presence of the single nucleotide polymorphisms in exon 1 of the mannose-binding lectin 2 (MBL2) gene was evaluated in a sample of 159 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery (71 patients undergoing valve replacement surgery and 300 control subjects) to investigate a possible association between polymorphisms and heart disease with Chlamydia i

7. Evaluation of the cytokine mannose-binding lectin as a mediator of periportal fibrosis progression in patients with schistosomiasis
INTRODUCTION : We hypothesized higher mannose-binding lectin level and classic factors (i.e., age, sex, alcohol consumption, exposure, and specific treatment) are associated with the severity of periportal fibrosis in schistosomiasis. METHODS : This cross-sectional study involved 79 patients infected with Schistosoma mansoni with severe or mild/moderate per

9. Mannose-binding lectin 2 (MBL2) gene polymorphisms do not influence frequency of infections in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients
Background: Infectious complications represent the main cause of morbidity and mortality in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. It has been reported that polymorphisms of the mannosebinding lectin 2 (MBL2) genes are correlated with MBL protein serum levels and, consequently, are associated with the development of infectious diseases. Objective: The purpose o

10. Níveis séricos e polimorfismos gênicos da Lectina Ligadora de Manose (MBL) e da Serino Protease Associada à MBP (MASP)-2 em uma amostra da população brasileira / Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and MBL Associated Serine Protease (MASP)-2 serum levels and genetic polymorphisms in a Brazilian population sample
A Lectina Ligadora de Manose (MBL) é uma proteína que reconhece carboidratos na superfície microbiana levando à ativação do sistema complemento. Este processo é mediado por Serino Proteases tal como a MASP-2. O complexo MBL/MASP-2 é responsável pela formação da C3 convertase C4bC2b. Os níveis séricos de MBL e a MASP-2 (genes MBL2 e MASP-2, respe

12. Participation of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine carbohydrate moieties in the recognition of Schistosoma mansoni sporocysts by haemocytes of Biomphalaria tenagophila
Lectin-carbohydrate binding may be involved in the recognition of Schistosoma mansoni sporocysts by haemocytes of Biomphalaria; therefore, we tested if this interaction is associated with snail resistance against Schistosoma infection. In vitro data showed that most of the S. mansoni sporocysts cultured with haemocytes from Biomphalaria glabrata BH, a highly
