Lectins are proteins that bind specifically to carbohydrates and are able to form complexes with molecules containing saccharides without changing their structure. Because of the many biological activities displayed by these proteins, they have great applicability in biotechnology. Controlled/slow drug release technology is one of the most promising applications of nanotechnology for disease treatment and diagnosis because it overcomes several problems associated with the use of macromolecules such as proteins as drugs. In this context, the present investigation aimed to develop a system for the controlled release of Dioclea violacea lectin (DVL), a mannose/glucose-specific legume lectin with anticancer properties, by applying two different...
