International journal for parasitology, Volume 42, Issue 3, 1 1 2012, Pages 269-277 Specific glycan elements determine differential binding of individual egg glycoproteins of the human parasite Schistosoma mansoni by host C-type lectin receptors. Meevissen MH, Driessen NN, Smits HH, Versteegh R, van Vliet SJ, van Kooyk Y, Schramm G, Deelder AM, Haas H, Yazdanbakhsh M, Hokke CH
During infection with the blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni, glycan motifs present on glycoproteins of the parasite’s eggs mediate immunomodulatory effects on the host. The recognition of these glycan motifs is primarily mediated by C-type lectin receptors on dendritic cells and other cells of the immune system. However, it is not yet known which individual glycoproteins interact with the different C-type lectin receptors, and which structural components are involved. Here we investigated the stru... Abstract
