Amerigo Scientific Releases Lectins Used for Physiological & Pathological Processes Conjugated or Unconjugated Available
Amerigo Scientific announced lectin products designed to accelerate studies of cellular recognition, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic development.
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, August 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Amerigo Scientific, a life science supplier focused on providing critical products and services to biomedical and pharmaceutical communities, announced its expanded lectin products designed to accelerate studies of cellular recognition, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic development. The portfolio includes both conjugated (fluorescent, biotinylated) and unconjugated lectins, providing researchers with unparalleled flexibility for diverse experimental needs in physiological and pathological processes.Lectins—natural proteins or glycoproteins that bind specific carbohydrate structures—serve as critical probes for decoding cellular communication, pathogen-host interactions, and disease biomarkers. Amerigo Scientific’s lectins are sourced from plants, fungi, and legumes, each rigorously validated for specificity and activity. Key applications include:
Cell surface mapping: Visualize glycoconjugates in cancer, immune, and stem cells.
Pathogen detection: Identify microbial surface glycans for infectious disease research.
Drug delivery systems: Leverage lectin-carbohydrate interactions for targeted therapies.
Product Highlights: Conjugated vs. Unconjugated Formats
Product Type: Unconjugated Lectins
Key Features: High-purity, native proteins; customizable for user-defined conjugation
Research Applications: Glycoprotein purification, affinity chromatography
Product Type: Fluorescein-Labeled
Key Features: Immediate use in live-cell imaging; excitation/emission optimized for microscopy
Research Applications: Real-time tracking of cell surface dynamics
Product Type: Biotinylated
Key Features: Compatible with streptavidin-based amplification; ideal for blotting/ELISAs
Research Applications: High-sensitivity biomarker detection
Driving Innovations in Disease Research
Amerigo Scientific’s lectins enable cutting-edge investigations into pathological mechanisms:
Liver Diseases: Conjugated lectins detect aberrant glycosylation in cholestasis and hepatitis, complementing bilirubin metabolism studies
Oncology: Fungal lectins (e.g., Ganoderma lucidum) demonstrate tumor-selective cytotoxicity by inducing cancer cell apoptosis.
Immunotherapy: Lectins like Agaricus bisporus enhance dendritic cell maturation, supporting vaccine development.
“Our lectins are lyophilized or liquid formats with detailed storage protocols to ensure stability and quality,” said the business development manager at Amerigo Scientific. “By offering conjugated and unconjugated lectins, we empower researchers to dissect carbohydrate-driven processes in cancer, infection, and genetic disorders—with speed and reproducibility.”
