Embryonic implantation in galectin 1/galectin 3 double mutant mice [PDF]
Galectin 1 and galectin 3 are first expressed in the trophectoderm cells of the implanting embryo and have been implicated in the process of implantation. However, we had previously shown that the lack of galectin 1 in galectin 1 null mutant mice is compatible with implantation.

Influence of IGF-I on adhesion, proliferation, and galectin-1 production in JAr and Jeg-3 choriocarcinoma cell lines [PDF]
BACKGROUND: JAr and Jeg-3 choriocarcinoma cell lines are model systems for the transformed trophoblast and allow studies of phenotype and regulatory factors for particular cell functions.

Galectinology of Equine Pregnancy
Galectins are a family of proteins that bind to glycans, acting in a cytokine-like manner throughout the body. In the majority of mammalians, galectins have been found to be involved in pregnancy maintenance, but few studies have evaluated this in the ...

Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]
Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

Galectin-1 is a poor prognostic factor in patients with glioblastoma multiforme after radiotherapy
Background Galectin-1, a radioresistance marker, was found in our previous study to be a prognostic factor for cervical cancer. The aim of current study is to determine the prognostic significance of the galectin-1 expression level in patients with ...

Enhanced Susceptibility of Galectin-1 Deficient Mice to Experimental Colitis
Galectin-1 is a β-galactoside-binding lectin, ubiquitously expressed in stromal, epithelial, and different subsets of immune cells. Galectin-1 is the prototype member of the galectin family which shares specificity with β-galactoside containing proteins ...
