Galectins are a family of β-galactoside binding proteins with roles in cellular differentiation,
apoptosis, and cancer progression. To better understand this important class of proteins, HL …

Our recent studies in a tissue co-culture model have shown that Galectin-3 is synthesized by
both protective stromal cells and by precursor B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells …

Little is known about the roles of galectins, a family of β-galactoside-binding lectins, in
myeloid cell differentiation. In the present experiments, we used HL-60 cells as a model of …

Galectin‐1 is a member of the family of β‐galactoside binding animal lectins, galectins. Its
presence in the bone marrow has been detected; however, its role in the regulation of …

Galectin‐3 is an endogenous mammalian carbohydrate‐binding protein with affinity for ABH
group carbohydrate epitopes and polylactosamine glycans present on cell surface and …

Galectins are a family of-galactoside-binding proteins involved in cell stress responses
and differentiation. Galectins are multifunctional proteins widely studied in many cell models …

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was reported as the most common type of leukemia among
adults. Galectins constitute a family of galactose-binding proteins reported to play a critical …

Purpose: Galectins family are animal lectins with a broad range of cellular functions. Many
galectins are repeatedly reported in several physiological changes and diseases including …

Galectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins and these have very high affinity for β-
galactoside containing glycoproteins and glycolipids. Amongst sixteen types of galectin, the …

Galectin-3, a β-galactoside-binding protein, has been shown to be involved in multiple
biological processes through interaction with its complementary glycoconjugates. Here we …
