Human Galectins Induce Conversion of Dermal Fibroblasts into Myofibroblasts and Production of Extracellular Matrix: Potential Application in Tissue Engineering and Wound Repair [PDF]
, 2011 Members of the galectin family of endogenous lectins are potent adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors. Their multi-functionality opens possibilities for their use in bioapplications. We studied whether human galectins induce the conversion of human dermal

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences CMLS, 2006 Galectins are a family of animal lectins with an affinity for beta-galactosides. They are differentially expressed by various tissues and appear to be functionally multivalent, exerting a wide range of biological activities both during development and in adult tissue.
