Oligomannose dendrons bind cell-surface receptors. Flow cytometry histograms showing fluorescein-labeled glycodendrons 14 (green in a and c) and 17 (blue in b and d) binds DC-SIGN-expressing Jurkat cells (a and b) or MDDCs (c and d). Mock-transfected Jurkat cells stained with the same conditions are shown in red in a and b. The fluorescent levels of mock-transfection control are the same as unstained cells. Unstained MDDCs serve as the negative control (red) for glycodendron-stained MDDCs in c and d.
