Taloside Inhibitors of Galectin‐1 and Galectin‐3
Chemical Biology & Drug Design, 2012Galectin‐1 and galectin‐3 have roles in cancer and inflammation. Galectin‐1 has recently emerged as a significant protein produced by tumour cells to promote tumour development, angiogenesis and metastasis and consequently represents an important target to inhibit.

Galectins are a family of animal lectins with affinity for beta-galactosides. By using recombinant proteins, a number of galectins have been shown to interact with cell-surface and extracellular matrix glycoconjugates through lectin-carbohydrate interactions. Through this action, they can affect a variety of cellular processes, and the most extensively

Galectins and Neuroinflammation
2014Galectins, β-galactoside-binding lectins, play multiple roles in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses. The major galectins expressed in the CNS are galectins 1, 3, 4, 8, and 9. Under normal physiological conditions, galectins maintain CNS homeostasis by participating in neuronal myelination, neuronal stem cell proliferation, and apical ...

The interrelation of galectins and autophagy
International Immunopharmacology, 2023Autophagy is a vital physiological process that maintains intracellular homeostasis by removing damaged organelles and senescent or misfolded molecules. However, excessive autophagy results in cell death and apoptosis, which will lead to a variety of diseases.

Galectin-8: a complex sub-family of galectins (Review)
International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2001Galectins are animal lectins, that can specifically bind beta-galactosides. Twelve galectins have been described in vertebrates, belonging to three different groups: prototype, tandem-repeat and chimeric. These proteins seem to be involved in cellular interactions and neoplastic transformations.

The Laryngoscope, 2001
AbstractObjectives To investigate whether galectins 1, 3, and 8 are expressed in human cholesteatomas and whether any such expression does correlate with the level of apoptosis, which is, as we have previously shown, predictive of recurrence. 7Study Design The analysis of 52 cholesteatomas resected by the same surgeon by means of canal wall up and ...

Glycoconjugate Journal, 2002
Galectin-3, a 31 kDa member of the beta-galactoside-binding proteins, is an intracellular and extracellular lectin which interacts with intracellular glycoproteins, cell surface molecules and extracellular matrix proteins. Galectin-3 is expressed widely in epithelial and immune cells and its expression is correlated with cancer aggressiveness and ...

Galectin-3 (Gal-3) plays important roles in cell proliferation, adhesion, differentiation, angiogenesis and apoptosis in normal and pathologic tissues. Accumulated evidences indicate that Gal-3 is closely involved in tumor cell transformation, migration, invasion and metastasis. In this review, the associations of the expression and localization of Gal-

Galectins in Regulation of Apoptosis
2011The term “galectins” was given in 1994 to a family of animal lectins that bind to β-galactosides and contain comparable sequences of amino acids in their genes and proteins [1]. At that time, there were just four identified members, but now 15 members have been described in mammals, with similar proteins found in various animal species, as well as in ...

Examination of the Role of Galectins and Galectin Inhibitors in Endothelial Cell Biology
2014The growth of new blood vessels is a key event in many (patho)physiological processes, including embryogenesis, wound healing, inflammatory diseases, and cancer. Neovascularization requires different, well-coordinated actions of endothelial cells, i.e., the cells lining the luminal side of all blood vessels.
