Physical tuning of galectin-3 signaling [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
SignificanceThe family of carbohydrate-binding proteins known as galectins receive considerable attention for their ability to modulate cell behavior in both normal and pathological settings. Galectin-3, for instance, can crosslink membrane glycans to initiate, amplify, attenuate, or inhibit signal transduction pathways that lead to cell ...

Galectin-3 facilitates cell motility in gastric cancer by up-regulating protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundGalectin-3 is known to regulate cancer metastasis. However, the underlying mechanism has not been defined. Through the DNA microarray studies after galectin-3 silencing, we demonstrated here that galectin-3 plays a key role in up-regulating the

Galectins, antibodies to them and galectin-3 binding protein in systemic lupus erythematosus

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология
The study of galectins is provoked by the search for new biomarkers of activity, clinical manifestations, and disease outcomes of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The presented literature review summarizes the data on the most well-known galectins-1, -

Galectin-3 and cancer stemness [PDF]

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2018
Over the last few decades galectin-3, a carbohydrate binding protein, with affinity for N-acetyllactosamine residues, has been unique due to the regulatory roles it performs in processes associated with tumor progression and metastasis such as cell proliferation, homotypic/heterotypic aggregation, dynamic cellular transformation, migration and invasion,
