Human T cell glycosylation and implications on immune therapy for cancer [PDF]
, 2020 Glycosylation is an important post-translational modification, giving rise to a diverse and abundant repertoire of glycans on the cell surface, collectively known as the glycome.

Brain Pathology, 2009 AbstractMalignant gliomas, especially glioblastomas, are associated with a dismal prognosis. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, glioblastoma patients still have a median survival expectancy of only 14 months. This poor prognosis can be at least partly explained by the fact that glioma cells diffusely infiltrate the brain parenchyma and ...

Simulating cellular galectin networks by mixing galectins in vitro reveals synergistic activity
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021 Background: Even though members of the family of adhesion/growth-regulatory galectins are increasingly detected to be co-expressed, they are still being routinely tested separately. The recent discovery of heterodimer formation among galectins-1, -3, and
