Article Synopsis
- - SeviL, a lectin from mussels, has been shown to induce apoptosis in HeLa ovarian cancer cells and promote M1 polarization in macrophage cell lines at low concentrations.
- - Low levels of SeviL decrease the growth of monocyte and basophil cell lines but stimulate proliferation in RAW264.7 macrophages, evidenced by changes in cell shape and up-regulation of mitochondrial proteins.
- - Treatment with SeviL leads to increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of various signaling pathways, indicating its role in regulating cell behaviors like proliferation and death in macrophages, which may impact immune responses in living organisms.
MytiLec-1, the recombinant form of a mussel lectin from Mytillus galloprovincialis, was purified by affinity chromatography and showed the maximum hemagglutination activity at a temperature range of 10 °C to 40 °C and at pH 7.0 to 9.0.
