Recognition of TLR2 N-glycans: critical role in ArtinM immunomodulatory activity.

Recognition of TLR2 N-glycans: critical role in ArtinM immunomodulatory activity.

TLR2 plays a critical role in the protection against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis conferred by ArtinM administration. ArtinM, a D-mannose-binding lectin from Artocarpus heterophyllus, induces IL-12 production in macrophages and dendritic cells, which accounts for the T helper1 immunity that results...
