Overexpression of Galectin 3 in Pancreatic β Cells Amplifies β-Cell Apoptosis and Islet Inflammation in Type-2 Diabetes in Mice

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Aims/Hypothesis: Galectin 3 appears to play a proinflammatory role in several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Also, there is evidence that galectin 3 plays a role in both type-1 and type-2 diabetes.

Time-course analysis of cardiac and serum galectin-3 in viral myocarditis after an encephalomyocarditis virus inoculation.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Galectin-3 is a β-galactoside-binding lectin which is important in cell proliferation and apoptotic regulation. Recently, serum galectin-3 has been shown to have prognostic value as a biomarker in heart failure.

Galectin-3 in diabetic patients

Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CCLM), 2014
Galectin-3 is a versatile molecule which exerts several and sometimes opposite functions in various pathophysiological processes. Recently, galectin-3 has gained attention as a powerful predictor of heart failure and mortality, thus becoming a useful prognostic marker in clinical practice.

Dynamics of galectin-3 in the nucleus and cytoplasm [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2010
This review summarizes selected studies on galectin-3 (Gal3) as an example of the dynamic behavior of a carbohydrate-binding protein in the cytoplasm and nucleus of cells. Within the 15-member galectin family of proteins, Gal3 (M(r) approximately 30,000) is the sole representative of the chimera subclass in which a proline- and glycine-rich NH(2 ...
