Biochem/physiol Actions

Thiodigalactoside (TDG)is a potent inhibitor of galectin-1 (GAL1) that suppress tumor growth by inhibiting multiple cancer enhancing activities of galectin-1, including immune cell dysregulation, angiogenesis and protection against oxidative stress. Thiodigalactoside reverses galectin-1-induced cisplatin resistance in HCC cells. Thiodigalactoside significantly reduces body weight gain in diet-induced obese rats.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers in Taiwan. Although chemotherapy is the primary treatment for HCC patients, drug resistance often leads to clinical failure. Galectin-1 is a beta-galactoside binding lectin which is up-regulated in HCC patients

Thiodigalactoside (TDG), a synthetic inhibitor of β-galactoside-binding protein (β-GBP) suppresses tumour growth by inhibiting multiple cancer enhancing activities of β-GBP. Hence, we attempted to understand whether disruption of β-GBP functions and indirect inhibition of Treg cells by TDG affect the

The main viral protease (3CLpro) is indispensable for SARS-CoV-2 replication. We delineate the human protein substrate landscape of 3CLpro by TAILS substrate-targeted N-terminomics. We identify more than 100 substrates in human lung and kidney cells supported by analyses of SARS-CoV-2-infected

Previously, galectin-1 (GAL1) was found to be up-regulated in obesity-prone subjects, suggesting that use of a GAL1 inhibitor could be a novel therapeutic approach for treatment of obesity. We evaluated thiodigalactoside (TDG) as a potent inhibitor of GAL1 and identified
