A comparative study of recombinant and native frutalin binding to human prostate tissues
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Numerous studies indicate that cancer cells present an aberrant glycosylation pattern that can be detected by lectin histochemistry. Lectins have shown the ability to recognise these modifications in several carcinomas, namely in the...
