Tumor-induced senescent T cells promote the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and angiogenic factors by human monocytes/macrophages through a mechanism that involves Tim-3 and CD40L [PDF]
Solid tumors are infiltrated by immune cells where macrophages and senescent T cells are highly represented. Within the tumor microenvironment, a cross-talk between the infiltrating cells may occur conditioning the characteristic of the in situ immune ...

Intracellular Galectin-9 Controls Dendritic Cell Function by Maintaining Plasma Membrane Rigidity
Summary: Endogenous extracellular Galectins constitute a novel mechanism of membrane protein organization at the cell surface. Although Galectins are also highly expressed intracellularly, their cytosolic functions are poorly understood.

Galectin-9 influences the Tim-3 molecule expression in natural killer different subpopulations
Galectin-9 is a b-galactoside binding lectin with expressed immunoregulatory activity. During pregnancy galectin-9 is produced by trophoblast cells and regulates the function of natural killer (NK) cells at the maternal-fetal interface via binding to Tim-

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 ...

Galectin-9 ameliorates fulminant liver injury
Fulminant hepatitis is a severe liver disease resulting in hepatocyte necrosis. Galectin‑9 (Gal‑9) is a tandem‑repeat‑type galectin that has been evaluated as a potential therapeutic agent for various diseases that regulate the host immune system. Concanavalin A (ConA) injection into mice results in serious, immune‑mediated liver injury similar to ...

Different angioregulatory activity of monovalent galectin-9 isoforms [PDF]
Galectin-9 consists of two peptide-linked carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs), but alternative splicing and proteolytic processing can give rise to multiple galectin-9 isoforms. Some of these consist of a single CRD and can exert different functions in cell biology.
