Differential Cellular Expression of Galectin-1 and Galectin-3 After Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating sub-type of stroke with no proven treatment. Given the emerging role of Galectin-1 and Galectin-3 in neuroimmune responses, the objective of the current manuscript is to elucidate hemorrhagic-injury induced

A Synthetic Galectin Mimic [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie, 2021 AbstractGalectins are a galactoside specific subclass of carbohydrate binding proteins (lectins) involved in various cellular activities, certain cancers, infections, inflammations, and many other biological processes. The molecular basis for the selectivity of galectins is well‐documented and revolves around appropriate interaction complementarity: an
