Presence of bacterial binding 'lectin-like' receptors on phagocytes.

E Glass, J Stewart, D M Weir
PMCID: PMC1554954  PMID: 7319551

Abstract

Lectin-like receptors capable of binding the bacterium Staphylococcus albus have been demonstrated in the membranes of phagocytes including macrophages, neutrophils and eosinophils from various sources and species. Such receptors are likely to contribute to bacterial adherence and phagocytosis in the non-immune animal.
