Product details

Background:
Galectin-3 is a member of the β-galactose binding lectin family with a molecular weight of 30 kDa which is a chimeric structure consisting of a β-galactoside binding protein and a laminin. The main role of Galectin-3 on the cell surface is related to the adhesion between similar cells. It is expressed in a variety of organs and tissues, including neutrophils and vascular endothelial cells, but it is obviously absent in normal hepatocytes. Galectin-3 can downregulate the expression of some cancers and breast cancer associated proteins, and promote tumor metastasis. It can be used as a reference index for the degree of tumor deterioration.

Cellular LocalizationCytoplasmic, Nuclear
Tissue ExpressionA major expression is found in the colonic epithelium. It is also abundant in the activated macrophages. Expressed in fetal membranes.
Signaling_pathway
Research Areas
FunctionFunction:Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar epithelial cells during early embryogenesis.,online information:Galectin-3,similarity:Contains 1 galectin domain.,subcellular location:Cytoplasmic in adenomas and carcinomas. May be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway and associate with the cell surface.,subunit:Probably forms homo- or heterodimers. Interacts with DMBT1 (By similarity). Forms a complex with the ITGA3, ITGB1 and CSPG4. Interacts with LGALS3BP, LYPD3, CYHR1 and UACA.,tissue specificity:A major expression is found in the colonic epithelium. It is also abundant in the activated macrophages.,
