Galectins constitute a class of lectins that specifically interact with β-galactoside sugars in glycoconjugates and are implicated in diverse cellular processes, including transport, autophagy or signaling. Since most of the activity of galectins depends

Placental Protein 13 (PP13) – a placental immunoregulatory galectin protecting pregnancy [PDF]
Galectins are glycan-binding proteins that regulate innate and adaptive immune responses, and some confer maternal-fetal immune tolerance in eutherian mammals.

This schematic figure illustrates the experimental design and key findings of the study. Forty male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either a standard diet control group or a cafeteria diet (CAFD) group for 16 weeks. CAFD induces obesity, insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR), hepatic steatosis, and dysregulation of a number of genes in visceral and subcutaneous ...

Galectins, antibodies to them and galectin-3 binding protein in systemic lupus erythematosus
The study of galectins is provoked by the search for new biomarkers of activity, clinical manifestations, and disease outcomes of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The presented literature review summarizes the data on the most well-known galectins-1, -

Research progress on biomarkers of traumatic brain injury
Traumatic brain injury: From primary insult to secondary neuroinflammation and degeneration. Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common disorder of the nervous system and has become a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, imposing a substantial burden on patients and their social circles. Its main symptoms include dyskinesia, language

Galectin-3-mediated glial crosstalk drives oligodendrocyte differentiation and (Re)myelination [PDF]
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is the only chimeric protein in the galectin family. Gal-3 structure comprises unusual tandem repeats of proline and glycine-rich short stretches bound to a carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD).

We developed an assay to distinguish cellular binding from internalization. Compatible with microscopy and high‐throughput screening, the method identifies ligand‐mediated uptake. Applying top candidates to a protein‐based DNA carrier enhanced transfection efficiency, providing a rational strategy to improve non‐viral gene delivery systems.
