Glycopatterns and Glycoproteins Changes in MCN and SCN: A Prospective Cohort Study

Figure 3

Glycan-binding protein targeting SCN and MCN by lectin microarray. (a) Lectin microarrays: representative MCN and SCN lectin microarrays: words in red indicate higher signal lectins in MCN compared with SCN, while words in white indicate lower signal lectins in MCN compared with SCN. (b) The recognition glycopattern of lectins was significantly higher in MCN samples than in SCN samples; box plots of lectins (R value > 1.45): WFA, DBA, STL, WGA, and BPL, p < 0.05, p<0.01. (c) The recognition glycopattern of lectins was significantly lower in the MCN samples than in the SCN samples; box plots of lectins (R value < 0.69): PTL-I, ConA, ACA, and MAL-I, p < 0.05, p<0.01.
