      Introduction. Last five years further advanced interest to lectins (relative to glycoconjugates[GC]-recognizing proteins and their complexes) was demonstrated [1-9]. The aim of this work was to summarize own works on lectins of probiotic bacteria (LPB), lectin-like erythropoietin (EPO) systems and system of human complement Ñ4 component.                                                                    

      Main Aspects of Lectins Studied

      Lectins in Solutions [4-7, 9-16, 36-41] and on Solid Phases (LPB [12, 17-21]:

Phytolectins [21, 36-41], EPO [22-25] and Ñ4 [8, 35]). Lectins reveal biosensor properties. They become more exposed at reactive sites, more active and selective in high dilutions (less than 1 mkg/ml) when refolding conditions of lectin molecules at low ionic forces are reached. Immobilized on hydrophobic surfaces, lectins and other (neighbour or not)  polymers represent additionally purified preparations with increased selectivity of stereooriented sites towards soluble cofunctioning exoagents and/or endoagents (in cascades of neighbours). Some lectin forms are presented in lipid associated and soluble fractions.  

      Lectins as Fluorescent and [10, 11, 20] Chemiluminescent  [17-19, 21-28] Probes. These properties are revealed at the level of registration of live imagine chemiluminescence and fluorescence of (glyco)peptides, molecular and supramolecular ingredients of lectins-involving compositions. In conditions of solid phase assemblies, lectins reveal increased contribution into long-wave fluorescence as well as chemiluminescence of lectin complexes become prolonged and stronger. Patterns of intrinsic lectin fluorescence  (which is effective in the work dilutions) and delivery fluorescence (in complexes to natural fluorofores or Ru-containing dye) are significantly differed. Cofunctioning immobilized separated oxidoreductases and LPB is observed as antagonism in fluorescent/ chemiluminescent contribution (on the same blot: during solid phase assembling, between strains of probiotic consortium), LPB and GC (fluorescent monitoring forming highly molecular mass (latent) biosurfactants possessing step-by-step increasing protein centers; modulation of chemiluminescence in assemblies on the basis of EPO systems), oxidases and phytolectins (directed distribution of  chemiluminescent patterns of protein systems on membrane). Fluorescence and chemiluminescence of assemblies involving lectins can serve models of cytokines-regulated solid phase gradients.

      Active and Latent Lectins [5, 9, 10, 17]. According to chemiluminescent registration, immobilized lectins are active in work dilutions similarly to antibodies. Established work dilutions of solid phase LPB are up to 20, 000 times depending on GC type. Work dilutions were always at subcytoagglutinating levels. Established antimicrobial dilutions of soluble LPB are mostly effective at dilutions higher than 1,000 times. Effective lectin dilutions become higher in conditions of influencing microbial growth and massive destruction. Upon low dilutions lectin systems are in latent reversibly masked states (that allows simplified study of topography of ingredients within complexes). Lectin activity or activated lectin can be stabilized and supported with (bio)surfactants and surface active proteins of foam. It is useful to store active lectins (acidic LPB, EPO systems) in high dilutions in the presence of non-ionic detergents (approximately in 0.001% Tween). Establishment of lectin work dilutions, titres of agglutination/ precipitation or clot-dissolving activities are simple ways to study lectin-cofunctioning enzymes and their cascades which become exposed similarly and due to lectin activity monitoring. Upon lectin-induced biofilm storing, enzyme reactions detected include cross-linking biofilms by oxidoreductases (biofilm resuspension is partly possible), decreasing titers of clot-dissolving activities, partial prevention of cell biofilm/ massive/ associates degradation and lysis by hydrolases.

      Lectins as Systems (new [21, 27, 28], major and minor [18, 19]), Net and Cascade Types [4-7, 9, 11, 16]. Multifunctionality of lectins is realized in acceptable systems of mutually related lectin active forms and their complexes (also of strain or as rational distribution of lectin systems between strains) which are contradictory to complementary systems of GC or GC-containing targets. In lectin (or GC) system each major or minor, aggregated/assembled or non-aggregated form of lectin (or GC) recognizes system of GC (or system of lectins). As a result, forming lectin-GC-coupled  directed/vector nets  takes place. New systems of LPB (on affinity to each of extended panel GC) and phytolectins are described. Cascade antimicrobial action of bifidobacterial lectins (earlier) and lactobacillar lectins (later) is established. Depending on strains, specia and genera,  LPB are able to switch processes of development and degradation of microbial societies as well as to protect human immunity against microfungal proteolyses. Types of GC, in their turn, are able to switch functioning lectin systems. In the presence of hydrolases, lectin systems are able to increase pool of antimicrobials in media.

      Lectins in Regulation of Assemblies [5, 18, 22-24] and Degradation [5, 9]. It was found layer-by-layer gradient distribution of lectin systems on hydrophobic pore surface (immobillon P) or not (polysterene): solid phase sorbed layers as protected and temporarely masked as in cases of LPB. Layer distribution was similar to protected and organized distribution of cell surface layers-associated lactobacillar lectin systems. Lectin-directed solid phase (polysterene) assembling molecules as well as assembling mixed gradients “LPB + human cells + fungal lectins” is determined by hydrophobicity and specificity of lectins as primary initiators and navigators (as in cases of assembling on the basis of LPB or EPO). GC protect lectins-containing activities in assemblies in different manner and extent. In assemblies GC mask functional sites, prolong storing, prevent oxidation, and serve a  basis for creating new exposed activities.

      Lectins as synergistic [14, 15, 21, 25, 28, 36-38] and symbiotic Factors [5, 11, 15, 16]; in Consortia [5, 9, 11, 14-16] and Biotope [9, 13, 14, 34]. Lectin systems are characterized as multisinergistic nets which are revealing as: cascade increasing antimicrobial actions of combinations of LPB types (bifidobacterial and lactobacillar, acidic and cationic, mixed): combinative actions of LPB and antibiotics, biosurfactants, other exopolymer substances, products of hydrolases actions, stress factors; cofunctioning directed systems of highly acidic phytooxidases and lower acidic phytolectins; rational distribution of systems of LPB, oxidoreductases and proteinases between Lactobacillus strains of probiotic consortium Acilact; capability to cofunction sinergistically together with probiotic bacterial populations and human protecting systems in biotopes (lectin imitation of properties of probiotics); advantages of lectins to transform, generate, transmit and direct portions of light within visible spectrum (emission of excitation energy in acceptor surroundings by antimicrobial LPB).

      Lectins in Diagnostics [5, 20, 25, 34, 35], Prognostics [5, 9, 17-23, 25, 30, 32-35] and Algorithms [15, 16, 26, 29, 31, 33-35]. Lectin systems are more reactable and possess stronger changeable patterns of reply) compared to lectin system component. This advantage provides high diagnostic and prognostic potential of lectin systems using (LPB in typing probiotic bacteria and microfungi; discrimination of EPO preparations). Kinetic chemiluminescence of the same blotted lectin system reveals two and more diagnostic/ prognostic patterns which complete each other and increase reliability and reproducibility of arguments (on examples of two kinetic stop-moment pictures in analysis of patients sera 4-5 subisotypes of isotypes ÑB4 è C4A, [immune sandwich and/or GC]-assembling on the basis of EPO systems). The following approaches extend and make deeper possibilities of diagnostics and prognostics as well as development of optimal combinative antipathogen strategies:

algorithms of obtaining and analysis of blotted assembled patterns; using ranged evaluation of macrofunctions of consortia; evaluation of relationships between antimicrobial (symbiotic, consortial, taking into consideration antibiotics) and relatively pathogenic (microfungal) compartments of biotopes.

      Conceptions of Biotope: Metabolic Multiknot Net. Previously widely accepted conception of biotope included biotope description as the fight of two contradictory potentially antagonistic compartments: positive (human own protection resources plus probiotic like microbes plus antibiotics) and negative (relatively pathogenic microbes). At present we have the data on advanced conception of “Multiknot biotope” as metabolic coupled net. Virtual functional knots are ordered into coupled net that reflects all possible relationships between strains or different microbial taxons (genera or species) in biotope. Evaluation of potentially antagonistic functioning relationships between representatives of probiotic and relatively pathogenic microbial compartments are of especial importance in keeping biotope healthy balance. Among such relationships in case of urogenital biotope, knot system “Probiotic-like genus Lactobacillus – Relatively pathogenic genus Candida” serve as biosensor to evaluate and calculate (using quantitative ranging analysis) biotope healthy buffer depth/ level of intrinsic resistance to diseases. As a result detecting the presence and species identification of Lactobacillus strains influencing metabolism of Candida (growth and early associates and biofilms forming) is possible. Important for prophylaxis and therapy completed such key knot includes leader regulator 1-3 strains from each compartment (lactobacillar strains influencing pool of Candida strains from the same biotope; Candida strains influencing pool of Lactobacillus from the same biotope), leader antibiotics (among panel participating in biotope events) which can regulate biotope taxonomic composition (for example, switching Candida species). Knowledge of key knots allow influencing biotope resistance by combinative actions with respect of knot elements such as leader strains and antibiotics, according to selected strategy.

      Lectins on the Ways towards Pharmacology [5, 9, 13-17, 20, 22, 25, 30, 32-41]. Main targets studied are urogenital, rectal colon and skin biotopes. All aforementioned data indicate that lectins are useful biochemical complex preparations (liquid and solid phase, individual and system, combinative) possessing regulated and directed spectrum of multibiological activities. They are especially effective and selective in work highly diluted doses or concentrations (significantly less than titers of agglutinating/ precipitating activities) when refolding of molecules is reached. Compared to non-immobilized lectins in 0.85% NaCl solution (0.15 M NaCl as physiological solvent), the using solid phase lectin preparations reveal advantages of additional purification and separation status (elimination of inhibitors, mask agents, concurent low molecular mass factors), sterically more homogenic orientation (allows cluster type of increasing effectiveness; cofunctioning together with enzymes, fluorofores, synergistic and cascade involving neighbours if needed),  increased temporary biocompatibility (granulated inert matrixes as carriers) and bioderadation if needed (rational prolongation against inactivation of exposed active sites with hydrolases of surroundings). Simplification of lectin system control highly sensitive microassays (exposed fluorofores as indicator potential for biorecognition,  lectin-GC solid phase registration, cytoagglutination, precipitation, control of oxidoreductases/ hydrolases cofunctioning, clot-dissolving, directed assembling functional mixed cell-cytokine gradients in biofilms, destruction and lysis of biofilms) is additional advantage. Variants of delivery of lectin-containing preparations (depending on biotope type) can include micellar or liposome compositions, natural or artificial pore gels, latex particles (all are in possible combinations with other antimicrobial metabolites, probiotics, bioadditives, antibiotics, cytokines, vitamins, and/or reagents for chemotherapy).                                                                                                     

      Conclusions. Results indicate that lectin systems are perspective as  additional synergistical reagents and cofactors in recognition and assembling: in diagnostics, prophylaxis and therapy, construction of bioadditives and system drugs as well as their delivery and realization in biotopes; in applications in medical immunology and bio(nano)technologhies, clinical microbiology and molecular pharmacology. Conceptions of controlled of dynamic states of resistant biotopes in organism and the ways of increasing biotope antipathogen resistance serve a basis for strategic individual patient planning steps before therapy, therapy, and post therapy (post surgery stabilization, acceleration of rehabilitation).
