Journal Article
Mastrotto, F., Pirazzini, M., Negro, S., Salama, A., Martinez-Pomares, L., & Mantovani, G. (2022). Sulfation at Glycopolymer Side Chains Switches Activity at the Macrophage Mannose Receptor (CD206) In Vitro and In Vivo. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 144(50), 23134–23147. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2c10757

The mannose receptor (CD206) is an endocytic receptor expressed by selected innate immune cells and nonvascular endothelium, which plays a critical role in both homeostasis and pathogen recognition. Although its involvement in the development of seve... Read More about Sulfation at Glycopolymer Side Chains Switches Activity at the Macrophage Mannose Receptor (CD206) In Vitro and In Vivo.
