Therapeutic Galectin‐3 Apheresis Improves Sepsis Outcomes Through Coordinated Neutrophil Modulation and Endothelial Barrier Preservation: A Translational Study [PDF]
Gal‐3 apheresis reduces neutrophil hyperactivation (CXCL2/CXCL8, MPO, NETs), preserves endothelial barrier function (tight junctions, vWF/VCAM‐1/ICAM‐1), and attenuates PI3K/AKT/HIF‐1α signaling. These coordinated effects significantly improve hemodynamics, reduce pulmonary edema (ELWI), lower vasopressor and fluid requirements, and increase survival ...

Foreign body responses in central nervous system mimic natural wound responses and alter biomaterial functions [PDF]
Biomaterials hold promise for diverse therapeutic applications in the central nervous system (CNS). Little is known about molecular factors that determine CNS foreign body responses (FBRs) in vivo , or about how such responses influence biomaterial ...

Galectin genes: regulation of expression. [PDF]
In this review we have summarized the more recent studies on the expression of mammalian galectins. One interesting observation that can be made is that in most of microarrays and/or differential display analysis performed in recent years one or more ...

Role of galectin-3 combined with multi-detector contrast enhanced computed tomography in predicting disease recurrence in patients with ovarian cancer [PDF]
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is an endogenous β-galactoside-binding lectin, playing an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple malignancies. Aim of the study was to evaluate in a group of patients treated for ovarian cancer (EOC), the role of Gal-3 ...

Spatial multi‐omics defines a DLL4–NOTCH3–driven capillary–mCAF axis orchestrating fibrotic remodeling and immune exclusion in hepatocellular carcinoma tumor cores, conferring immune checkpoint blockade resistance. Targeting stromal NOTCH3 disrupts this pro‐fibrotic niche, enhances T cell infiltration, and synergizes with anti‐PD‐1 therapy ...

Association between sleep patterns and galectin-3 in a Chinese community population
Background Irregular sleep patterns have been associated with inflammation. Galectin-3, a novel biomarker, plays an important role in inflammation. We investigated the relationship between sleep patterns and galectin-3 in a Chinese population.

Depression in type 1 diabetes was associated with high levels of circulating galectin-3
Objective: Neuroinflammatory responses are implicated in depression. The aim was to explore whether depression in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) was associated with high circulating galectin-3, controlling for metabolic variables, s-creatinine, life

Functions of cell surface galectin-glycoprotein lattices [PDF]
Programmed remodeling of cell surface glycans by the sequential action of specific glycosyltransferases can control biological processes by generating or masking ligands for endogenous lectins. Galectins, a family of animal lectins with affinity for beta-

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.
