Prognostic significance of endogenous adhesion/growth-regulatory lectins in lung cancer [PDF]
Objective: To determine the expression of endogenous adhesion/growth-regulatory lectins and their binding sites using labeled tissue lectins as well as the binding profile of hyaluronic acid as an approach to define new prognostic markers.

Duodenal Intraepithelial Lymphocytes of Children with Cow Milk Allergy Preferentially Bind the Glycan-Binding Protein Galectin-3 [PDF]
A breakdown in intestinal homeostasis results in inflammatory bowel diseases including coeliac disease and allergy. Galectins, evolutionarily conserved β-galactoside-binding proteins, can modulate immune-epithelial cell interactions by influencing immune cell fate and cytokine secretion.

β-Mannosyl Triazoles as Mimics of Galactosyl Galectin-3 and Galectin-9 N-Terminal Domain Inhibitors. [PDF]
Galacto‐mimicking mannosyl monotriazoles, but not bis‐triazoles, inhibit galectin‐3 and galectin‐9 N‐terminal domain. Mannosyl β‐C‐1 amidotriazoles have previously been reported to have higher selectivity for galectin‐9N (N‐terminal domain) than the corresponding galactoside C3 amidotriazoles have, which were more selective for galectin‐3.

Sensing ligand binding to a clinically relevant lectin by tryptophan fluorescence anisotropy [PDF]
Increasing insights into the involvement of endogenous lectins in disease processes fuel the interest to develop potent inhibitors. As a consequence, robust assay procedures are required. Due to their activity as adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors this

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Galectin-3 determines tumor cell adaptive strategies in stressed tumor microenvironments
Galectin-3 is a member of the b-galactoside binding lectin family, whose expression is often dysregulated in cancers. While galectin-3 is usually an intracellular protein, found in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm; under certain conditions, galectin-3 ...
