Mannose-binding lectin inhibits monocyte proliferation through transforming growth factor-β1 and p38 signaling pathways.
Mannose-binding lectin (MBL), a plasma C-type lectin, plays an important role in innate immunity. However, the interaction, and the consequences of it, between MBL and the immune system remain ill defined. We have investigated the contributing mechanisms and effects of MBL on the proliferation of hu...
