Galectin-9 expression clinically associated with mature dendritic cells infiltration and T cell immune response in colorectal cancer

BMC Cancer, 2022
Background Galectin-9 is a member of the galectin family and has been reported to have a tumor-promoting or antitumor effect in response to the immune microenvironment. However, the immunomodulatory effect of galectin-9 in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains

Toll-like receptor 9 is involved in the induction of galectin-9 protein by dietary anti-allergic compound fucoidan

AIMS Allergy and Immunology, 2023
Dietary intervention of fucoidan extracted from Saccharina japonica brown seaweed has been ascertained to favor an increase of galectin-9 protein in the intestine of allergic mice, resulting in the attenuation of the food allergy symptoms.

Galectin Family Members: Emerging Novel Targets for Lymphoma Therapy?

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
The galectin family of proteins has high affinity with β-galactoside-containing glycans. These proteins participate in cell growth and differentiation, cell adhesion, cell signal transduction, cell apoptosis, and other cellular activities.

Amelioration of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis via TGF-β-induced Smad and non-Smad signaling pathways in galectin-9-deficient mice and fibroblast cells

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2020
Background Galectin-9 is a β-galactoside-binding protein with two carbohydrate recognition domains. Recent studies have revealed that galectin-9 regulates cellular biological reactions and plays a pivotal role in fibrosis.
