1 | Effects of natural complex carbohydrate (citrus pectin) on murine melanoma cell properties related to galectin-3 functions. | Carbohydrates | lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 | Mus musculus |
2 | Citrus pectin (CP) and pH-modified citrus pectin (MCP) are highly branched and non-branched complex polysaccharides, respectively, rich in galactoside residues, capable of combining with the carbohydrate-binding domain of galectin-3. | Carbohydrates | lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 | Mus musculus |
3 | These results indicate that carbohydrate-recognition by cell surface galectin-3 may be involved in cell-extracellular matrix interaction and play a role in anchorage-independent growth as well as the in vivo embolization of tumour cells. | Carbohydrates | lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 | Mus musculus |
