Galectin-3/Gelatin Electrospun Scaffolds Modulate Collagen Synthesis in Skin Healing but Do Not Improve Wound Closure Kinetics

Bioengineering
Chronic wounds remain trapped in a pro-inflammatory state, with strategies targeted at inducing re-epithelialization and the proliferative phase of healing desirable.

Serum Galectin-3 level and recurrence of atrial fibrillation post-ablation – Systematic review and meta-analysis

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2020
Background: Serum galectin-3, a circulating biomarker of fibrosis, has been associated with atrial remodelling. Recent studies investigating serum galectin-3 and AF recurrence post-ablation have shown mixed results.

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Galectin-1 is essential for efficient liver regeneration following hepatectomy [PDF]

, 2016
Galectin-1 (Gal1) is a known immune/inflammatory regulator which actsboth extracellularly and intracellularly, modulating innate and adaptive immuneresponses. Here, we explored the role of Gal1 in liver regeneration using 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx) of

Unveiling CLC as a Central Regulator of Allergic Rhinitis via the CLC‐CCL26/POSTN Axis: An Integrated Bioinformatics and Experimental Study

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
We unveil that CLC orchestrates the dual role of eosinophil recruitment via CCL26 and tissue remodelling via POSTN in allergic rhinitis, identifying it as a potential therapeutic target. ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic airway inflammation driven by a type 2 immune response, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its persistence and tissue

Deceptive Thyroid Pathologies: Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma Mimics and Clinical Implications

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Beyond follicular‐derived thyroid carcinomas, lymphomas, and metastatic disease, there are rare pathologies of the thyroid gland that represent a challenge. We report patients with unusual malignancies that mimic similar aggressive cancers. Methods Retrospective case series.

Human Galectins Induce Conversion of Dermal Fibroblasts into Myofibroblasts and Production of Extracellular Matrix: Potential Application in Tissue Engineering and Wound Repair [PDF]

, 2011
Members of the galectin family of endogenous lectins are potent adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors. Their multi-functionality opens possibilities for their use in bioapplications. We studied whether human galectins induce the conversion of human dermal
