糖类物质受体的研究进展

Investigation progress on receptors of saccharides

关于糖类物质的研究近年来越来越引起人们的极大兴趣。糖类物质具有广泛的生物学活性,其免疫调节作用是实现其生物学活性的重要机制之一。糖类物质生物学活性的发挥,主要是通过与细胞上不同的糖类物质受体相互作用,再经一系列信号转导的过程而实现的。该文综述了糖类物质的受体以及糖与受体蛋白的相互作用特点。

More and more interest has been put on the investigations of saccharides recent years. Saccharides have a vast number of bioactivities and the immunomodulating effect of saccharides is one of the important mechanisms via which saccharides exert their bioactivities. Saccharides exert their bioactivities mainly by interacting with all kinds of saccharide receptors on cells, followed by a series of signal transduction process. In the present paper, numerous saccharide receptors and the characters of the mutual interaction between saccharides and their receptors are summarized.
