Chemical Structure of Trichomonas vaginalis Surface Lipoglycan: A ROLE FOR SHORT GALACTOSE (β1–4/3) N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE REPEATS IN HOST CELL INTERACTION

The extracellular parasite Trichomonas vaginalis contains a surface glycoconjugate that appears to mediate parasite-host cell interaction via binding to human galectin-1. This glycoconjugate also elicits cytokine production from human vaginal epithelial cells, implicating its role in modulation of h...
