This book presents the latest knowledge and the most recent
research results on glycobiology of innate immunology. Innate
immunity is the crucial part of the immunological defense system
that exerts their distinct functions through binding to certain
functional glycoproteins. They play a role in various human
diseases and also function against microbial invaders and
self-associated molecular patterns. Co-regulated expression of
glycan-binding is associated with many biological components such
as cellular oncotransformation, phenotype change, neuronal or
embryonic development, regulation of cell division, cell–cell
interaction, cell attachment, adhesion, and motility, and
intracellular signaling via protein–carbohydrate or
carbohydrate–carbohydrate interactions. This book opens by
providing the key background on glycans in innate immunity and its
mechanisms behind the Dendritic cell interactions during infection
and inflammation are examined in depth, and the concluding chapter
is devoted to signaling tumor immunotherapy. Up-to-date information
is then presented on all aspects of glycan structure-recognizing
signaling. The book should assist in the further development of new
strategies against emerging infectious agents and intractable
diseases.
