Evolutionary analysis of galectins and identification of potential galectin-1 inhibitors: A computational approach

open access: yesBangladesh Journal of Pharmacology, 2014
Galectins are a family of structurally related carbohydrate-binding proteins and some galectins play a major role in initiation, progression and dissemination of different types of tumors.

Galectins in epithelial-mesenchymal transition: roles and mechanisms contributing to tissue repair, fibrosis and cancer metastasis

open access: yesBiological Research
Galectins are soluble glycan-binding proteins that interact with a wide range of glycoproteins and glycolipids and modulate a broad spectrum of physiological and pathological processes.

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.

Extracellular galectins as controllers of cytokines in hematological cancer.

open access: yesBlood, 2018
Galectins and cytokines are both secreted proteins whose levels are prognosis factors for several cancers. Extracellular galectins bind to the glycans decorating glycoproteins and are overproduced in most cancers.

Environmental enrichment modulates chronic poststroke inflammation and links white matter TREM2‐positive microglia in recovery in mice

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Schematic overview illustrating the experimental design and main findings of the study. Following photothrombotic stroke, mice were housed in either standard environment or enriched environment. Environmental enrichment attenuated lesion‐driven microglial inflammation and myelin damage while promoting an association between white matter triggering ...

The Role of Galectins in Tumor Progression, Treatment and Prognosis of Gynecological Cancers

open access: yesJournal of Cancer, 2018
Galectins are the member of soluble proteins that bind with β-galactoside containing glycans. These proteins have been considered to be associated in various important events such as different types of cancers.

Galectin-3 and Galectin-9 May Differently Regulate the Expressions of Microglial M1/M2 Markers and T Helper 1/Th2 Cytokines in the Brains of Genetically Susceptible C57BL/6 and Resistant BALB/c Mice Following Peroral Infection With Toxoplasma gondii

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE), an opportunistic infection, is a severe health problem in immunocompromised patients. Previous studies have revealed that C57BL/6 mice are susceptible and BALB/c mice are resistant to TE.

Comprehensive Insights into Natural Bioactive Compounds: From Chemical Diversity and Mechanisms to Biotechnological Innovations and Applications

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Natural products derived from plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and minerals contain diverse bioactive classes such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, tannins, and phenolics. These natural products work through different mechanisms, including ROS inhibition, NF‐κB suppression, and cytokine regulation, and exhibit wide applications across ...

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

The diverse dependence of galectin-1 and -8 on multivalency for the modulation of FGFR1 endocytosis

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) is a N-glycosylated cell surface receptor tyrosine kinase, which upon recognition of specific extracellular ligands, fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), initiates an intracellular signaling.
