The Application of Plant Lectins in the Field of Biomedicine
This paper reviewed the application of plant lectins as biomedical materials. The discovery history of plant lectins and its classification were firstly introduced. Then we clearly summarized their applications in targeting drug carrier
stimuli-responsive drug carrier
targeting and stimuli-responsive drug carrier
biological sensors and polymer materials. The advantages as well as the challenges for using plant lectins as bio-function materials were also addressed.
