  • Title: Differential binding of conA and WGA on the cell surface, the role of sialic acid in their expression and the increased activity of sialidase after cis-Platin treatment.
    Author: Sodhi A, Prasad SB.
    Journal: Experientia; 1985 Jan 15; 41(1):93-5. PubMed ID: 3917932.
    Abstract:
    It is reported that concanavalin A (conA) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) have a differential binding pattern on normal mouse spleen lymphocytes and the surface of Dalton's lymphoma cells. It is suggested that sialic acid on the cell surface controls the expression of lectin binding sites. Further, it has been observed that the increased release of sialic acid from cell surfaces after cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (II) (cis-Platin) treatment is due to the increased activity of sialidase.
