Lectin histochemistry in a case of ulcerative colitis complicating rectal carcinoma. 1985

S Yonezawa, and T Nakamura, and S Tanaka, and K Kuroki, and E Sato

The large bowel from a patient with ulcerative colitis complicating a rectal carcinoma was histochemically investigated by using two lectins; Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I (UEA-I) and peanut lectin (PNA). Much UEA-I binding glycoantigen and PNA binding glycoantigen appeared in the carcinoma and dysplastic lesion whereas only a small amount of both antigens was found in the non-dysplastic regenerating epithelium. Consequently, a very sharp contrast between the dysplastic lesion and non-dysplastic regenerating epithelium was demonstrated by the lectin staining.

D037102 Lectins Proteins that share the common characteristic of binding to carbohydrates. Some ANTIBODIES and carbohydrate-metabolizing proteins (ENZYMES) also bind to carbohydrates, however they are not considered lectins. PLANT LECTINS are carbohydrate-binding proteins that have been primarily identified by their hemagglutinating activity (HEMAGGLUTININS). However, a variety of lectins occur in animal species where they serve diverse array of functions through specific carbohydrate recognition.
