Plant lectins, from ancient sugar‐binding proteins to emerging anti‐cancer drugs in apoptosis and autophagy

9 Dec 2014

Abstract excerpt

Ubiquitously distributed in different plant species, plant lectins are highly diverse carbohydrate-binding proteins of non-immune origin. They have interesting pharmacological activities and currently are of great interest to thousands of people working on biomedical research in cancer-related problems. It has been widely accepted that plant lectins affect both apoptosis and autophagy by modulating representative...
