changes of lectins bound to DN groups compared to NDRD calculated with mean value of normalized florescence intensities of lectins obtained from 3 biological reduplicates. —, no significant difference; /, the fold-change was infinite; 0, the numerator of the fold-change was zero. versus ; versus ; versus , value was calculate by Student’s -test.
