Galectins can serve as biomarkers in COVID-19: A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 BackgroundGalectins are an eleven-member class of lectins in humans that function as immune response mediators and aberrancies in their expression are commonly associated with immunological diseases.

“Repair Me if You Can”: Membrane Damage, Response, and Control from the Viral Perspective
Cells, 2020 Cells are constantly challenged by pathogens (bacteria, virus, and fungi), and protein aggregates or chemicals, which can provoke membrane damage at the plasma membrane or within the endo-lysosomal compartments.

Atg8ylation as a general membrane stress and remodeling response
Cell Stress, 2021 The yeast Atg8 protein and its paralogs in mammals, mammalian Atg8s (mAtg8s), have been primarily appreciated for their participation in autophagy. However, lipidated mAtg8s, including the most frequently used autophagosomal membrane marker LC3B, are ...

Tumor Microenvironment-Associated Extracellular Matrix Components Regulate NK Cell Function
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 The tumor microenvironment (TME) is composed of multiple infiltrating host cells (e.g., endothelial cells, fibroblasts, lymphocytes, and myeloid cells), extracellular matrix, and various secreted or cell membrane-presented molecules.

Plasma Galectin-9 Concentrations in Normal and Diseased Condition
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018 Background/Aims: Galectin-9 is a soluble immune modulator with versatile functions, including a role as an immune checkpoint molecule. Therefore, the amount of galectin-9 in the blood may reflect an individual’s immunological balance.

Differential Cellular Expression of Galectin-1 and Galectin-3 After Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating sub-type of stroke with no proven treatment. Given the emerging role of Galectin-1 and Galectin-3 in neuroimmune responses, the objective of the current manuscript is to elucidate hemorrhagic-injury induced
