Glycobiology of cell death: when glycans and lectins govern cell fate

Open access
Lichtenstein, R G, Rabinovich, G A·2013·Cell Death & Differentiation

Abstract

Although one typically thinks of carbohydrates as associated with cell growth and viability, glycosylation also has an integral role in many processes leading to cell death. Glycans, either alone or complexed with glycan-binding proteins, can deliver intracellular signals or control extracellular processes that promote initiation, execution and resolution of cell death programs. Herein, we review the role of glycans and glycan-binding proteins as essential components of the cell death machinery during physiologic and pathologic settings.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Glycosylation state of some death receptors (e.g., FAS) impacts sensitivity of T lymphocytes to extrinsic apoptosis, influencing termination of inflammatory responses.

    “Of note, the glycosylation state of some death receptors (e.g., FAS) has been shown to impact on the sensitivity of T lymphocytes to extrinsic apoptosis, hence influencing the termination of inflammatory responses [288–290].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
