Expression of mannose receptor and ligands for its cysteine-rich domain in venous sinuses of human spleen.

The mannose receptor (MR) is a type I membrane molecule with two lectin activities. Mannose recognition takes place through the C-type lectin-like carbohydrate recognition domains, while recognition of sulphated glycans is mediated by the cysteine-rich domain (CR). In murine spleen CR ligands are pr...
