Galectin-1 promotes gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis through peritoneal fibrosis
Background Peritoneal metastasis is one of the main causes of death in patients with gastric cancer (GC). Galectin-1 regulates various undesirable biological behaviors in GC and may be key in GC peritoneal metastasis. Methods In this study, we elucidated

Monovalent Interactions of Galectin-1
Galectin-1, a β-galactoside binding lectin involved in immunoregulation and cancer, binds natural and many synthetic multivalent glycoconjugates with an apparent glycoside cluster effect, that is, affinity above and beyond what would be expected from the concentration of the determinant sugar. Here we have analyzed the mechanism of such cluster effects

Galectins-1 and-3 Increase in Equine Post-traumatic Osteoarthritis
Galectins are potent regulators of cell adhesion, growth and apoptosis in diverse cell types, including chondrocytes and synovial fibroblasts. Elevations in synovial fluid galectin-3 have been observed in rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic ...

Galectin-1 and -9 in angiogenesis: A sweet couple [PDF]
The growth of new blood vessels out of the pre-existing vasculature, i.e., angiogenesis, is executed by endothelial cells that normally form the inner lining of blood vessels. During angiogenesis, these cells exert different activities which require interactions with other cells and with the extracellular environment.
