Glycodendrimeric ligands of C-type lectin receptors as therapeutic agents in experimental cancer

  • Chapter
Progress in Basic and Clinical Immunology

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 495))

Abstract

The increased knowledge about the receptor-ligand relationships of the cytotoxic effector cells is suggesting modalities for new systems of immunomodulation. The lectin receptors on natural killer cells (NK) and their recognition of carbohydrate ligands are part of these new perspectives.
