Female serum glycoprotein glycosylation patterns were determined by the binding of Cy3-labeled protein to 37 different lectins using a lectin microarray. CK: CKD, LK: LKD and Health: normal control. (a) Profiles of Cy3-labeled serous proteins from patients with CKD, and LKD, and normal individuals bound to the lectin microarrays. The lectin microarrays revealed lectins that exhibited significant differences, which are marked with white frames; (b) Significant differences in the lectin levels among the three groups. The bars represent mean + SD of the three biological replicates from each group.
