Synopsis

Molecular recognition governs any aspect of cellular interaction. The analysis of protein carbohydrate interactions contributes to an understanding of tumour cell growth regulation and spread and can help with the establishment of rational methods for diagnosis and therapy. Techniques in oncology and pathology, such as the chemically and biochemically optimized preparation of adequate tools, their application for localization of receptor (tissue lectin) and ligand (cellular glycoconjugate) pairs in tumour cells and tumour sections and the usefulness of a lectin from a plant extract as a potent immunomodulator, are detailed.
