Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a β-galactoside-binding protein that is involved in cancer progression
and metastasis. Using a progressive human melanoma tissue microarray, we previously …

Ischemic‐reperfusion injury (IRI) triggers an inflammatory response involving neutrophils/
macrophages, lymphocytes and endothelial cells. Galectin‐3 is a multi‐functional lectin with …

Keratinocytes undergo apoptosis in a variety of physiological and pathological conditions.
Galectin-3 is a member of a family of β-galactoside-binding animal lectins expressed …

Aim: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) represents a growing health concern due to
its rapidly increasing prevalence worldwide. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a …

In this study, we investigated the alterations of the redox balance induced by the lipid
fraction of oxLDL in Caco-2 intestinal cells, and the effects of tyrosol and protocatechuic …

Objective: Although galectin-3 (gal-3) is expressed during arthritic disorders, the part it plays
has never been described. The aim of the study was to determine the intracellular roles of …

Recently we identified galectin-3 (gal-3), which is secreted by colonic epithelial cells (CEC),
to be a strong activator of colonic lamina propria fibroblasts (CLPF). Modulation of CLPF …

Galectin-3, a β-galactoside-binding lectin, is a multifunctional protein implicated in a variety
of biological functions, including tumour cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, cancer …

To evaluate the effect of galectin‐3 in cell cycle regulation of colon cancer cells, we looked
for binding molecules interacting with galectin‐3 and examined the changes in cell cycle by …

Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) agonists are involved in the
regulation of inflammatory responses and recent studies suggest that PPAR-γ ligands may …
