An important class of lectins in the innate immune system is myeloid C-type lectin receptors (CLRs). Myeloid CLRs act as pattern recognition receptors and are predominantly expressed by myeloid cells, such as macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. In innate immunity, CLRs contribute to self/non-self discrimination. While the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by CLRs may contribute to a protective immune response, CLR engagement can also be exploited by pathogens for immune evasion. Since various CLRs act as endocytic receptors and trigger distinct signaling pathways in myeloid cells, CLR targeting has proven useful for drug/antigen delivery into antigen-presenting cells and the modulation of immune responses. This review covers recent discoveries of pathogen/CLR interactions and novel approaches for CLR targeting within the period of the past two years.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":291,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1367593124000978/pdfft?md5=306dced818d81a5ca24ab6335f230013&pid=1-s2.0-S1367593124000978-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142099058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
