Galectins are a family of endogenous glycan-binding proteins that have crucial roles in a
broad range of physiological and pathological processes. As a group, these proteins use …

Galectin-7 is a soluble unglycosylated lectin that is able to bind specifically to β-
galactosides. It has been described to be involved in apoptosis, proliferation and …

Galectin-8 (Gal-8) belongs to a family of animal lectins that modulate cell adhesion, cell
proliferation, apoptosis, and immune responses. Recent studies have shown that …

Despite recent advances in diagnosis and treatment, glioblastoma (GBM) represents the
most common and aggressive brain tumor in the adult population, urging identification of …

Galectins are a family of β-galactoside-binding proteins with an evolutionarily conserved
carbohydrate recognition domain. Their dysregulation has been implicated in physiological …

Inhibition of galectin-3-mediated interactions by modified citrus pectin (MCP) could affect
several rate-limiting steps in cancer metastasis, but the ability of MCP to antagonize galectin …

ABSTRACT Introduction Breast cancer (BCa) is the most common cancer type diagnosed in
women and 5th most common cause of deaths among all cancer deaths despite the fact that …

Galectin-1 (gal-1) emerges as a potential biomarker for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and
therapy. Its pivotal involvement spans various stages of tumor progression, including tumor …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to detect the distribution of different lectin receptors
in primary cancer cells as well as in the case of metastasis, as these biomolecules can …

Purpose Aiming at complete excision of cholesteatoma during trympanomastoidectomy and
therefore reducing the risk of recurrence, intraoperative imaging techniques are required to …
