New scientific publication – Immune regulatory networks coordinated by glycans and glycan-binding proteins in autoimmunity and infection

Salomé S. Pinho, Inês Alves, and Joana Gaifem, who are part of the GlycanTrigger team from i3S – Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde, collaborated with Gabriel Rabinovich from CONICET to publish a review article titled “Immune regulatory networks coordinated by glycans and glycan-binding proteins in autoimmunity and infection.” This insightful article, published in the prestigious Cellular & Molecular Immunology journal, opens new horizons in the realms of immunology and infection research.

This publication offers a comprehensive exploration of immune regulatory networks and their orchestration by glycans and glycan-binding proteins in the context of autoimmunity and infection. It delves into the intricacies of these critical mechanisms, shedding light on their impact on the immune system and potential implications for clinical practice.

The research presented in this article has far-reaching consequences, offering fresh perspectives and insights into the management and treatment of autoimmune diseases and infectious conditions.
