Purification and identification of sulfated Lewis X binding proteins in boar sperm
… in sperm binding to the sulfated version of LeX (sLeX, a LeX version that binds sperm with high affinity) that mediate sperm adhesion to the oviduct epithelium. From this work it was possible to detect multiple sLeX and SiLN putative receptors in epididymal and ejaculated sperm; furthermore, some …

APPROACHES TO IDENTIFY SURFACE PROTEINS OF ANAPLASMA PHAGOCYTOPHILUM DENSE-CORED ORGANISMS AS ADHESINS TO HUMAN P-SELECTIN GLYCOPROTEIN LIGAND-1
… human granulocytic anaplasmosis. Sialyl Lewis x (sLex)-modified P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) is the confirmed receptor utilized by A. phagocytophilum to bind and invade human neutrophils and myeloid cell lines. As an obligate intracellular pathogen, the binding of A. phagocytophilum …

Molecular Mechanisms of Circulating Tumor Cell Adhesion in Breast Cancer Metastasis
During hematogenous metastasis, tumor cells dissociate from a primary tumor, migrate through the tissue space, and enter the circulatory system. The circulating tumor cells (CTCs), once bloodborne, travel to distant sites, where they adhere to the endothelial cells lining the vessel wall, …
