General description
Galectin-1 is a member of the family of animal lectins, which selectively binds β-galactoside residues.
Application
A common function of galectins is to cross-link structures containing N-acetyl-lactosamine located at the cell surface and within the extracellular matrix. They also possess hemagglutination activity, which is attributable to their bivalent carbohydrate binding properties. They have variable affinity for more complex oligosaccharides. Other activities of galectin-1 include cell differentiation and inhibition of CD45 protein phosphatase activity.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Galectin-1 has been implicated in metastasis and aggregation of cancer cells based on its association with the glycoprotein 90K. Galectin-1 may play a significant role in cancer through apoptosis, cell adhesion, migration, cell cycle regulation and tumor evasion of immune responses.

A case of secondary syphilitic hepatitis is reported. A 49-year old woman was admitted for weight-loss, fever, hepatomegaly and splenomegaly. Diagnosis of syphilitic hepatitis was based on cholestasis associated with positive serologic tests for syphilis without other immunological disturbances. Biopsy

Mucins are multifunctional highly glycosylated proteins expressed by the female reproductive tract. Differential expression of MUC1 and MUC15 has been shown in trophoblast. This study was undertaken to establish the distribution of mucin(s) in cytotrophoblast cell cultures using anti-bovine submaxillary

Galectins and their ligands have been implicated in cell transformation and cancer metastasis, and found to have prognostic value. Mac-2 BP, also known as 90K, is a highly glycosylated, secreted protein extensively studied in human cancer, which binds galectin-1, galectin-3

Investigations of human parasitic diseases depend on the availability of appropriate in vivo animal models and ex vivo experimental systems, and are particularly difficult for pathogens whose exclusive natural hosts are humans, such as Entamoeba histolytica, the protozoan parasite responsible

CD4(+) T cells orchestrate the immune response by differentiating into T helper (Th) or regulatory (Treg) cell subsets that secrete distinct sets of cytokines. They also play a critical role in the pathogenesis of autoimmunity, asthma, allergy and, likely, cancer.
