Galectins is a family of multifunctional lectins. Fifteen galectins have been identified from a
variety of cells and tissues of vertebrates and invertebrates. Galectins have been shown to …

Over the past two decades, the gold standard of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) treatment is
unchanged and adjunctive therapy has offered little to prolong both quality and quantity of …

Galectin-8 is a member of the galectin family that is involved in immune response against
pathogens. However, the roles of fish galectin-8 during pathogen infection require …

Abstract Galectin-8 and galectin-9 belong to tandem repeat-type galectins, and in the
present study, these two genes were cloned in mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi. The open …

Galectin 8 belongs to the tandem repeat subclass of the galectin superfamily. It possesses
two homologous carbohydrate recognition domains linked by a short peptide and …

Streptococcus aglactiae (GBS) infection in tilapia is a serious global disease that causes
significant production loss. Here, we studied the role of GBS in the spleen and the spleen's …

Galectins are a member of the β-galactoside binding protein family, which play a pivotal role
in the immune defense of vertebrates as a pattern recognition receptor and occupy an …

Abstract Galectin-9 is a-galactoside-binding lectin which could modulate a variety of
biological functions including recognition, aggregation and clearance of pathogen. In this …

Galectins are β-galactoside-binding lectins, which are involved in pattern recognition, cell
adhesion, and stimulation of the host innate immune responses against microbial …

Seabream is one of most important candidates for aquaculture in China. However, in recent
years, streptococcosis has posed a serious challenge. Galectin-8 has been proven to play …
